R50/53 Your Dream Garage (R53 included)...
#53
Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione
Bentley Continental GT Speed
Aston Martin DBS
Ferrari F430 Scuderia
Porsche 911 GT3RS
I know it is blasphemous here, but the Mini would be replaced by a BMW 535 wagon for everyday driving, plenty of fun cars in the list already!

Great Thread! My choices:
1) MY MINI!
2) The TRUCK, to haul toys, large loads, etc. - BMW X5
3) The wiff needs a car. She gets a BMW 335!
4) I need a fun daily driver and I miss my M so much. So an M3 it is!
5) And my wife and I need a "special car" to go out on the town with. That would be the Aston Martin DBS
Oh, and I'm keeping my motorcycle FOREVER since it's already in my garage! MV Agusta SENNA

Hey all,
I'm new to the forums, just bought my 2004 MCS the other day, and the first thing I did was look for a forum to express my love for the car, and here I am!
If I had to pick 5, it'd be...
My MCS with a bunch of mods and the aero kit. (Pics will be on their way)
Ferrari F40 - The last car that Enzo personally had put into production, I'd have to have something Italian in the garage
Audi RS4 - 4WD, room to fit 4 people comfortably, and it would be sick on the highway, or the snow. Or both.
Porsche Cayenne Turbo - As much as I hate SUVs, I'd feel a lot better about having one if it were a turbo-ed up Porsche. Fast and can hold a bunch of stuff.
Ariel Atom - I think someone else made this call, and I'd definitely do the same. Nothing like having that open wheel experience, right? And besides, it'd be about as close as I could get to trying to pull an Ayrton Senna style pole lap... on the way home from work

Oh heck, I'd need 30 easy and it'd be tough to come down to that, but a quick couple that come to mind to cover many of the bases...
300 SL (or SLR)
Jag XKE, torn between series I or III
This rod
An Austin Healy, either 3000 or 100-4/6
Fiberglass Freaks replica
A 'sorta MINI' ish toy...
A Duesenberg or two or three...
Cooper Type 24
Ferrari 2005 F1 (love the shark gill vents too)
Chaparral 2F...

OK, OK, lemme in on this with a twist: Reality. Cars I might actually be able to afford or own, and maintain. Zondas are cool, Ferraris classic, but...
1&2) My MCS Checkmate (with perhaps a few tweaks), and my wife's choice (which I'll also further tweak):
[IMG][/IMG]
3) Track day car:
4) Family / Lowes / Home Depot / Tow / stealth cruiser (laugh if you will., but there IS a need for practicality here!):
5) Something fun...
Heck - I've got two teenagers, and already own 1,2, and 4... so there may be a "3" and a "5" but they'll likely be my kids' first cars. Ugh. Track cars and more fun-mobiles will have to wait...

THANKS! I feel so priveleged to have something like this. Thankfully the wife agreed to let me have it. I tell ya...there's nothing like driving into the garage and seeing that thing right in front of you.

1) My R53 for DD, but with some more mods that so far, are only "planned".
2) 350Z for the wife (Because it's the one she says she wants).
3) Atom for the track.
4) McLaren F1 for the weekends.
5) Winnebago with everything to tow the Atom to Willow Springs (and elsewhere) for track days.
If I need a truck to haul "stuff", I'll rent it!
