Ive asked a lot of my friend over the years.... If you suddenly were rich..... and you had a ten car garage, what would you put in it.

Very interesting conversations occur.

This is what I think i might put in mine.

1. FFR 2363 TOTALLY FINISHED
2. Monte Carlo SS, the big car.
3. 1963 Split Window Coupe Corvette
4. Biggest new Dodge Turbo Diesel 4WD Pickup made
5. New Nicest Chrysler Town and Country.
6. 1964 Studebaker Avanti, R-3
7. Ferrari Testerosa
8. New Jeep Sahara
9. Jaguar XKE Roadster, not sure which year.
10. 2002 3/4 ton Big block Suburban

I have a mixture of interesting collectables and some late model usable cars.

Im sure Ive over looked some very obvious Highly Collectable cars , Like a 1957 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible.

And the Suburban and the Big Pickup might be semi Redundant.

The Jag and the FFR, are sort of Redundant.

What would you put in your Garage??

It's hard to keep it to only ten,,,,and my "dream list" changes periodically.

If I were seriously rich, it'd be more like 10 street cars, 10 racecars, 10 european cars, 10 muscle cars!

Lemme see,,,

#1 86 White Testarossa (I was a Miami Vice fan)

#2 Lambo Miura SV (but it'd have to be LIME GREEN)

#3 Ferrari 333SP for club track events

#4 Mercedes CLK GTR street version

#5 Mercedes 190e 2.5 "EVO 2"

#6 Mercedes E55 driver for the wife

#7 72 blue/white Trans-Am w/4-speed

#8 69 Boss 302 4 speed mustang

#9 a carbon fiber- 500hp FFR roadster

#10 a yellow/black GT40 (I'm working on gettin one of these now )

Of course I'd have a couple of trucks too.

I'd need a 2 ton 4 door freightliner to pull a
40plus foot enclosed trailer.

I'd also need a one ton dually diesel for a "mule"

And maybe an AMG M55 for a grocery getter?

Man,,,,spending big bucks is easy......
.....now if I could just find a way to earn them!

 

[Horizon200]

Alain,
It's easy to earn big bucks! It's the legality that gets ya!

 

[ffr3245]

Allright everyone, lets get back down to reality and tell the cars that you REALLY want....

1. Gremlin "Ugly brown"

2. AMC Pacer "Puke green"

3. 2-door Pinto with "Squeeky door option"

4. 4-door Pinto with "Mag wheels!"

5. 2-door Vega "OHHH-yeah chick magnet!"

6. Volkswagen Thing "You know that thing?"

7. Volkswagen Bus "Peace signs and all"

8. Opal GT "Remember this sweet little car"

9. Yugo with "No reverse light option"

10. And finally an 87 Fiero for your "Lamborghini Countache Kit"

Just had to put a little humor in everybody today!!!!
