5-Car Garage

[CAM]

I'm going to go with cars that one can find used for under $100,000, just to make it more realistic.

2005 Bentley Continental GT Coupe

1999 Ferrari 358 Spider

2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage

2008 Maserati Gran Turismo S

1994 Dodge Viper RT/10

Honorable Mention: Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph, Porsche 911 Carrera/Cayenne S, Audi R8, Lamborghini Gallardo, and BMW M6.

 

[Doog]

I see some of you are doing realistic 5 car garages. Isn't that a bit of an oxymoron?

Here's mine :

Daily Driver : Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG.

The Other Daily Driver : Lexus LX570.

The Truck : Ford F150 Platinum.

The Fun-Thing : Mini Coupe JCW.

The Other Fun-Thing : Audi TT-RS.

 

[Bopop4]

1. 3500HD Duramax Dually with 1000hp and 2000ft-lbs of torque.
I'll need a truck.

2. Ferrari F50, because best Ferrari.

3. Miata with a 500HP V8, for playing around with.

4. Murcielago with about 1500hp, for an acceleration car.

5. BMW 7 Series as a daily driver.

 

[Blackbird.]

Ooo.

I can have fun with this let me think.

 

[oopssorryy]

'86 MR2 5 speed, NA build for the street, T-top. 130-150hp at the rear wheesl. Fun weekend car.

'86.5 Supra 5 speed, with factory sports package, fully hard top. Again NA build for the street, 200-230hp at the rear wheels. 89+ front end for looks. Summer car.

New Rav4, 4 cylinder, auto, 4 wheel drive. No mods, winter and DD car.

90s Toyota truck, 5 speed, 4 wheel drive, with an NA built 22RE. With slightly raised suspension, and larger tires. It would be all the truck I would ever need.

1969 Pontiac Trans Am, manual, fully factory, with the Ram Air IV. Show car, and very occasional back road cruiser.

 

[Luminis]

The daily driver: A BMW E90 335is LCI, touched up by Studie AG. Love the body kit, but I would replace the rear wing (looks tacky, in my opinion) with a ducktail spoiler.

The classic car/sunday drive: A Maserati 3500 GTIS Sebring.

The project car: A Nissan 240Z, probably with a new engine... Maybe a 2l EcoBoost, jsut to be different

The convertible/chicks magnet: Lamborghini Aventador Spider

The track toy: Ariel Atom 500

If this was supposed to be realistic, you'd have to scratch at the very least three cars of the list... In that case, I would go with the Studie AG BMW, but probably based on a 320i and get a NA Miata as a track toy/sunday drive/convertible/not-so-much-of-a-chicks-magnet...

 

[obsessive rules]

Zonda r: why not?

Huayra: amazing.

Lotus Exige v6: again why not?

Toyota 86: my city car

Mclaren mp4-12c: time to whoop those 458 owners asses.

 

[hawkeye122]

5 Car Garage? Done.

Bowler Nemesis Road-Going, Not-As-Stiff edition. Because deep down, Everybody wants a Rally Raid Truck.

Lexus LF-A

Pretty, revs like crazy, and makes an amazing noise.

Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR 722 Edition

"The Best" version of my favorite car. Understated looks, cool doors, and most importantly- Exclusivity.

BMW M5 E60

I still like it better than the new one. My mates dad has one, So comfortable, so... unsuspectingly fast. As BMW said on their webpage, it's a "Racecar for 5". Sort of.

Aston Martin V8 Vantage GT4

Per Jeremy Shaw "If you ask Prodrive really nicely, they'll register your GT4 Vantage"
Yes. I'll have some of that. Track Days, Thunderhill 25 Hours, I'll have the lot. In Gulf Blue, please.

Realistic 5 car garage:
BMW M3 E46- Because M3. Gut it, make it into a Street-legal race car. Oh yes.

Mazda RX-8- Deep down, I love a rotary engine. I'd like one.

Ford Mustang GT CS- Because California Special. My mate has one which is pretty nice. I'd like his. An '07.

BMW M3 E90 Sedan- Again, because M3. This time with "Comfort" and "Ride Quality".

Toyota 4runner- Mum had one, lovely machine. I'd like it back. '07, with the Sport package.

 

[obsessive rules]

Oh realistic eh?

BMW 1series ///M

[Murcie_LP640]

My realistic 5-Scooby garage:

Daily driver: 2005 Subaru Liberty 3.0R Spec.B (~$15-17,500)

Weekender: Subaru BR-Z in manual ($37,150 driveaway)

Bush-Basher: Subaru L-Series wagon with lift, muddies, and probably some form of EJ20 conversion (Probably around $15,000 including engine and getting it in there; about a fiver without it )

Track-Day Special: Subaru Impreza WRX STi Version VI MY00 ($20,000 for a decent example)

The tourer/people mover: Subaru Liberty Exiga Premium ($42,490)

 

[Doog]

So, the consensus here seems to be that a realistic 5 car garage isn't that unrealistic. Seems legit.

So, I'd better do mine.

Daily Driver for the Highway : Lexus LS430. Comfy as can be, and quiet; perfect for the commute.

City Driver : Lexus ES300h. Because an LS430 gets craptastic gas mileage in the city, and a Mini Cooper's too bumpy to be a practical city driver.

SUV : Cadillac Escalade. Not entirely unrealistic; a second generation model can be found for relatively cheap; and having parts from a tried and true Chevy Tahoe means it can be fixed easily.

Secondary SUV : Infiniti QX4. Just because. DAT COLOR COMBO.

Fun Thing : 1984 Corvette C4, in black. Crossfire injection, 205 horsepower, digital gauges, T-Top! It's the quintessential 80s sports car, and it's quite nice to drive in real life, but not quite enough power to get into to much trouble.

 

[SagarisGTB]

Pagani Zonda F
Maserati GranTurismo S
Porsche 997 GT3 or Honda NSX Type R
Alfa Romeo 159 kombi (diesel)
Subaru BRZ

 

[Blackbird.]

Ok...

C63 AMG Coupe

Dodge Viper GTS

SVT Raptor

C6 Z06

Porsche Carerra S w/ PDK and ducktail

All pictures don't necessarily depict the color/wheel/option combo I'd look for in those cars.

 

[wrapture]

2. The currently owned 2005 Ford Excursion-The entire family fits, and it absolutely rocks when the weather turns to crap.

I would go with the 2002 Ford Excursion. It may sound like a step back, but it was the last year with the 7.3L Diesel engine. My Dad has one and a 2002 Ford F-350 with the 7.3. Even the new models don't have as good of a Diesel engine.

I really don't have a 5th car because those 4 above are really it but if I would have to have a 5th it would be ethier a Lamborghini SV, Aston DB5, or a Ford GT. Whichever I can get my hands on.

3) Rolls-Royce Phantom - Two-Tone Silver(s)
4) Mazda MX5 (Latest) - Silver Hard-Top (just better 'kay )
