1. Pagani Zonda 760 RS or Cinque
2. Ferrari 430 Scuderia
3. Some nice SUV, probably a Range Rover

I'm not greedy, 3 will do.

B/c I'm on hold waiting for a conference call to start.

My list seems to change, but a few remain constant. My dream garage will always have some kind of GT3 and a classic 911. I'll keep my list somewhat realistic.

(1) GT3 RS 4.0 - would handle track duty and be driven to work on the reg



(2) Scuderia 16M - unbelievable soundtrack and since I'd already have the 4.0, why not go with a topless Scud



(3) 911 ST or RSR Replica - classic beauty with modern drivetrain (though still air cooled) and suspension.
Along these lines in terms of looks...




(4) F10 M5 - I'd go with a 6MT and install an Akra Evo exhaust to give it some real sound. If I could get a B8 RS4 in the US, that would take this place.



(5) Chevy Tahoe Z71 - need something to take down to the coast, to the ranch, and haul boats/track car. The American sportman's version of a Land Rover.

I can't fathom why this car isn't on every list. It has the looks, sounds, and racing derived engineering that makes it truly epic.

Porsche Carrera GT - my all time favorite car

Ferrari F40 - my personal favorite prancing horse

Porsche GT2 RS - raw power that comes only in a proper manual

probably an SLS Cab as a DD (hopefully that counts)

and..

Porsche 959 - most advanced car for its time period. ever (in my opinion)

It's too large, and a personal gripe I have with many of today's supercars. They're so wide, you have your wheels on the ditch on both sides of the road! Not the case with a Macca F1 or EB110, they are tiny.
Not too much of an issue in America, but if I have 3Mil for a McLaren F1, I have an extra Mil or 2 for a house in the italian Alps. And the roads there are winding and narrow. Also, Autobahn.

For me its to difficult to be at 5. They would all be european but no Lambo's, BMW, Audi's, or VW's.
Otherwise it is really hard to narrow down 5 cars from Porsche, Bently, LandRover, Mercedes, and Ferrari.
