Well since others are posting their unrealistic dream garages so shall I! :sly:

Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Edition for ever day use
Dodge Ram 3500 QuadCab Cummins modified with tandem rear axles for 6x6, flat black
1970 Dodge Challenger T/A "Restmod", set up like This 1/18 model
Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4, either white, lime green, or black... that car just looks too damn sexy to not have :P
And of course my own V350T turbine supercar, it would be too pwn not to have. Dunno what color though....

And no, the Challenger would not be your typical straight line only muscle car. It would be fully adept at handling a curvy road due to custom IRS, lowered ride hight, modern wheels and rubber, modern steering system, less weight, and a stiffer chassis. Not to mention the lift reducing front and rear spoilers and large Brembo brakes.

Now the Ram, it is sprung off of a military Ram idea I have called Battle Ram, although it lacks the weapons and sensors of Battle Ram. It does have fully active suspension with magneto-rheological shock absorbers. Here is an old pic of the basic idea of my Ram...

Oh, and specs for the V350T can be found Here.
 
Lol, you want an SL65B for a long distance cruiser? Have fun filling it up constantly.

If I had the money to own all that stuff anyway I'd just fly if I needed to go more than a couple hundred miles :P
Plus, I enjoy the smell of gas as I fill up, and with that kind of money I wouldn't care much for the cost ;)
Oh, and V350T's fuel consumption would make even the SL65's look good :crazy:
 
Ah, must be an European thing then, I've never seen a Type-R Accord (well, one where the stickers came with the car from the factory anyways), the fast(er) Accords are all badged Euro-R.
This is the 2.2 litre, Recaro'd version right?
As in this one

More or less the same one, yes, but with a slightly different front (as in "look real close to see the difference) and a large wing on the back.

And in Pirates Black, please.
 
That Accord with a sports suspension and a high revving 2.2? I want.

Oh but I do! And yes I have seen Clarkson drive it. And he also drove heavier, still in development model.

Overdrove it, is more like it... everyone else who has enthuses about its neutrality.
 
Pagani Zonda C12-F Roadster. Just look at it!

Hummer H2. I like them big.

Peel P50. I also like them small!

Plymouth Road Runner Superbird. I like the Spoilers big too!

And last but certainly not least...

Jaguar R5. I like them British Racing Green!

Green is bad luck in racing. That's why the Brits never win anything.

You lose a chunk though for not picking the Jota. :P

I'll settle for a regular model. Jota is so rare and it adds SO MUCH money to the cost. As if the regular one isn't rare enough.

BTW my list is correct.

Carrera GT (Jesus) = technically perfect. The best driver's car ever manufactured. Not a flavor of the month like the 599, Zonda, Caparo that many have listed.
Veyron (God) = it just doesn't get any faster or quicker. Love it or hate it but the numbers don't lie - if you want to be all ****ing out there's nothing else you can do it in - and here you can do it in such style.
300SL (Holy Spirit) = the most beautiful car ever manufactured, by a hilariously wide margin.
Diablo SE30 (Satan) = the most aggresively-styled car ever made, with a meaner presence than any other vehicle in history.

S8 = daily.

If I had a six-car, the final one would be an Audi Q7 for my wife.

So we have technical driver's brilliance (Porsche), incredible speed (Veyron), stunning beauty (300SL), and incredible presence (Diablo SE30). The perfect combination.
 
Peter, that's a good choice, but I'm keeping my gunmetal rims and tan interior :D
 
In ascending order of something, I'm certain:

BK_sport_34FRONT.jpg

It just... does everything properly. This'll be my "SUV." If a normal car can't get somewhere, it's by definition somewhere I'd rather not go. Thus, I just need something to put fridges and stuff in. Quickly. Sexily. The Fit is go.

Mini Cooper, 55 hp, 5 headlights, just as in the original Italian Job. Minis simply rock my world. Odd-numbered headlights? Sign me up. In red, please.

Now, the proper cars:

IMG_0031.jpg

997 Porsche Carrera S: Prettier than almost anything else, one of the truly modern Porsches which actually dance, but getting the very newest one is like getting the very newest laptop computer: It'll be garbage the instant the next one comes out. No sir, can't have that. Did I mention pretty?

166:

I need an Alfa, and this one's pretty. You never need to explain an Alfa. Besides, you can't.

Perfect handling. Glorious engine. Sexy styling. But, everything in moderation. This is my ideal of a sportscar, but it doesn't draw quite so much attention to itself.

If I think of anything too outlandish, I'd never actually use it. The lambo would rot, the suburban would... get pushed off a cliff, actually, but that's besides the point. Fancy tends to be distasteful. I just included the Porsche for when I inevitably change my mind. It was either that or an Insight (sexy).

I've been giving this some thought and I don't think there's quite enough information in the premise. I need to know something about the hypothetical living situation on the version of me that owns these 5 cars. If I'm as rich as I'd like to be, then my 5 car garage is pretty straightforward.

1) Stretched, armored Maybach/S-class. I honestly haven't done enough research in the limo market to properly figure out which car I'd want. It would need to seat 5 minimum in the back. This would be for my hypothetical driver to take myself and my wife to wherever we needed to be.

2-5) Toys

- Ford GT
- Aerial Atom
- Jeep Rubicon
- Keys to my plane
- Keys to my boat

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Of course, if I got to pick 5 cars out for myself right now, I'd pick the most expensive ones and sell them. But if I get to have 5 cars that I can't sell and I'm still in my current living condition, it would look like this:

1) Ford GT
2) Aeriel Atom
3) Volvo XC90 (probably something better, but it needs to be an SUV that seats 7)
4) '08 Mercedes E-Class AMG
5) Aston DBS

We would have accepted both liter and litre, but alas, no.
 
Well I believe the 7.0L is the biggest small block engine GM has ever produced, but what really gets me is that the car pictured is a ZR1 with the LS9...which is only 6.2L.
 
1. Ferrari 166 MM - most successful racing car of its day, convertible, nice to drive apparently, 2.0 litre V12, sounds great.

2. Porsche Cayenne Turbo - daily driver, comfy, fast and roomy

3. '67 Mustang V8 - nothing sounds this good

4. Maserati 8CTF - great history, amazing sound

5. Rx7 project: I'd take an Rx7 twin turbo, chop the roof off, and recondition the engine.

I'd potentially consider swapping the Rx7 for a car with ground effects. Or something F1 :P
 
Grocery getter: Audi RS4 Avant. I love how they look, and they sound even better when you're on it.

Ive heard those black RS4 estates are a wee bit quicker than 406 coupes....

My perfect 5 car garage would have to be;

1. My Barracuda


2. A lifted truck with big tires, preferably a GMC (I've always been a northerner but living down south has really changed my mind about going off road and even mudding)

3. Full rally spec impreza

4. Ferrari 312B (Mostly because it makes the best, if not one of the best sounds in the entire world.)

5. A custom rat rod made by me (Not exactly like this one obviously, but one with the same general shape)

Numbers 3 and 4 are negotiable if I think of something better. These are just off the top of my head.
