Let's make it trickier! 1 mil $ garage
 

I saw the 10 mil $ garage thread and I think that sum is kinda big, this way we can see better what cars people around here appreciate imo. The sum doesn't include maintenance/garage/whatever.
Here's mine:

Porsche CGT 450,000$
Corvette C6 Z06 $75,000
Audi S8 $100,000
Ferrari 575 $200,000
Porsche 911 Turbo $123,000
Lotus Exige S $57,000

It's 5000$ over budget, but if I had to, I'd drop the Lotus.

997 Turbo
997 GT3
S600
M5
Ariel Atom
LX 570

+ Maintanence....

God the cars are so cheap in the states, here a CGT is (was) £340k

complete guesses as to car prices of cars not for sale anymore, and with a million € to spend:P

Land Rover Discovery 60.000
Mercedes CL600 215.000
Porsche 911 Targa S 145.000
Corvette Z06, project car 120.000
'67 porsche 911 S 80.000
budget for gf/wife's car 100.000
Total 720.000
so that's 280.000 remaining, lemme see lemme see... a house w/ garage would come in handy here :P

Discovery? and Targa S?

The Targa S is the worlds worst 911, and anyway, it's a 4S. JUst get a cabrio, they handle the same and the cab wont creak.

:D 8)

Lets see...

LP640 roadster - $400k

Gallardo Superleggera - $220k

997 turbo - $130k

'07 Audi S6 - $80k

e46 M3 - $50k

Ariel Atom - $50k

Ducati Desmosedici - $80k



:drool:

Aston Martin DB9 (grey)
Ferrari 599 GTB (red)
Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder (yellow)
Maserati Quattroporte (black)

C5 Z06
996 GT3
Ruf RT12
Carrera GT
Cayenne Turbo
Mercedes E63

$USD 1.000.000,-

Audi RS6 5.0TT $+450.000,-
Aston MartinDB9V $450.000,-
DeltaIntegrale16V $ 70.000,-
90's VW Passat $ 30.000,-

money don't buy you so much in Norway as in the rest of the world :fist:

Audi S8 - Black
Audi R8 - White or Silver
Ferrari F40 - Red
Ferrari F430 Spider - Black/Black with a 6-speed.
996 C4S - Dark Blue

And I'm probably out of money now. I ball-park estimated the S8 and R8 at 100k, the F40 at 450k. If I could add another everyday driver I'd slap on an SLK 55 AMG because my girlfriend wants one.

My own price estimation, as all the S8 sold in Norway are all around +/- 410.000,- and the RS6 is heavier and a lot more powerful, which gives much higher tax. The engine tax alone for 580hp is $150.000,- over German showroom

Beckinvest 600hp Cayenne: http://beckinvest.no/?a_id=1300
$ 287.000,-
Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera $ 593.000,-
90' Ferrari Testarossa $ 120.000

or

Lamborghini Murcièlago LP640 $ 1.000.000

lol i just always liked the idea of the Targa, dunno if there are any practical issues with it...
Discovery: it seats 7 and i plan to have loads of kids :wink: plus it can go anywhere, which is useful for travelling across the estate that i will undoubtedly have if i can afford cars worth a million dollars :P

well, i would get

Yamaha R1_____________$15,000 (exhaust, tires, ecu etc.)
Yamha FX SHO__________$12,000 (jetski)
Yamaha Apex MTX SE____$12,000 (snowmoble)
Fountain 42' Poker Run___$713,575
Dodge Ram 3500________$55,000 (loaded)
Dodge Viper '08_________$89,000
Dodge Charger SRT8_____$45,000

i would also have to live in California to use all of these toys and the rest of the money i would put into a mutal fund to put gas in everything. :D

Ferrari Challenge Stradale - $170K
Ferrari 288 GTO - $450K
Porsche Carrera GT - $330K
Used Formula Ford - $50K

If this doesn't include maintenance and getting cars for family/friends, and the cash is meant to be only spent on cars, then I would get:

Ferrari F430 Spyder-Black with Red Interior, F1, Carbon-Ceramics, BBS CH's, etc.
Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG-Black with Terracotta-ish interior, HRE rims, etc.
Porsche Cayenne Turbo-Black with Terracotta interior
Porsche CGT-Black on Black
Another TSX, except this one would be modded like crazy. Custom F22C1 drop, etc.
:D

Why would you want a second C5 Z06, is the 650+hp one you have right now a bit too fast for everyday use? :mrgreen:

^The second one is for FI use..... :mrgreen:

Aston Martin DB9 (give or take $350000)
Jaguar XJ6 ($150000, although I have found a decade-old one for $22000)
Ford Performance Vehicles GT-P ($70000)
Alfa Romeo GT V6 3.2L ($70000)
Mazda 3 ($27000)

^Matt, you seems to have a lot of unreliable cars in the fleet. :wink:

:twisted: Exactly..... I would make the second one a 454ci LSX alloy block 1600bhp Twin Turbo - you know, to run the standing mile at 255mph... :P

Koenigsegg CCX - with the taxes it'll pretty much cost 1 mil lol :lol:

You know what I would do if I had a million dollars? I would invest half of it in low risk mutual funds and then take the other half over to my friend Asadulah who works in securities...

or

996 GT3 RS
Murcielago (poser)
BMW E30 M3
Ferrari 550 Maranello
Supra TT MKIV
and the new LS 600h...just so that I can say I drive a hybrid

Hmm...

997 GT3 RS
Mercedes E63 AMG
Audi RS4 Avant
Radical SR8
Old style Mini with the motorcycle engine conversion
Datsun 510 fully race prepped with a SR20DET
Corvette C6 Z06
Superformance GT40 or Shelby Cobra replica
Ferrari 430 or maybe 550 or maybe 599 (depending on how much I had left)
Some type of old muscle car set up pro touring style with modern tech
Some sort of tow vehicle (truck or SUV, nothing fancy)

Leave some money left over for mods, wheels, etc. Its hard to answer these kinds of questions because my answer would probably change each time LOL

well mine would be full of old cars

M3 CSL 100 000
Delta integrale 15 000
Ferrari 355 100 000
Ford Capri 10 000
528i SE E 39 15 000
Lotus Elise 111 R 60 000
Diablo 150 000
Z4M 100 000
Vanquish 300 000

and some bikes

Ducati Monster
Hayabusa

...

That's why I have the Mazda 3!

yup and that boat has right around 1,000hp.

Yeeeeeahh - Samir :)

I love that movie too!

I knew that line sounded so familiar, and I just found out!

+1 to that for sure.

Porsche Carrera GT
Ferrari F430 F1
Porsche 911 GT3
C6 Z06 corvette
CLK 63 amg Black Series
Ferrari 550 Barchetta

Don't know about the prices but if one has to go it would be the c6 z06

My dream is to open a small showroom in a quiet part of town with 5-10 cars in it and drive everyone of them until they sell, the ones I really like I'd keep :P

Other than that it would be
bmw m3e30 evoII
porsche 930 turbo
porsche 993 turbo
mercedes 600SE V12 W140 just to have it :P
thats about it

Hmmm...

Z4 M Coupe in Ruby Black with brown extended leather

Z3 or Z4 Roadster, maybe keep what I have and supercharge it

993 Carrera S or Targa in Arena Red

C63 AMG wagon/estate in any colour but not black or silver. Mercedes dog guard and shopping bag hooks ;)

F430 in Ferrari (whatever they call it) red with cream hide.

New Mini Cooper S with lots of options, BRG or white with black stripes/roof.

Mazdaspeed 3 just because these things are nuts! (silver, with 1.6 badges and more discreet wheels, probably from the sport model which look a little like Focus ST wheels)


Suzuki RG500 in Red and Black
Yamaha R1 from a year or so ago in the yellow and black (80s) paint scheme
Couple of dirt bikes, 2 stroke and 4 stroke, road legalised.
Yamaha Banshee with a proper 60hp RD350 motor installed :twisted:
Trailer for the bikes when I cant be arsed to ride them to the off road areas. Scratch that, change it to a little RV, 4 berth, with a workshop/small room at the back for the bikes. I am thinking something like a Hymer rather than a US sized Winnebago.

Assuming I havent spent all the money yet, then, a few more cars (in order of preference)...

C6 Z06

Mitsubishi Evo VIII

NSX

BMW E30 M3

BMW E28 528i

Mercedes 190 2.5-16

Triumph Dolomite Sprint

Ford Fiesta RS Turbo

and as per Arman I would achieve this list by setting up a small but exclusive supercar/sportscar dealership, specialising in sourcing cars for clients.

So I'd hope to get most of the cars at trade price and turn the million into much greater $ along the way through business.
