Default You just became a billionaire...

Here's some food for thought. Let's say you just just hit the frickin motherload and have a billion plus to build your dream garage. Let's also say that you had to keep yourself to a 10 vehicle maximum for your collection (to include your drivers). What would those 10 be?




I think I would maybe have

1) 69 Pontiac GTO Ram Air V in Bobcat trim

2) 37 Cord Supercharged Conv. in burgandy w/ creme interior

3) 67 Corvette Conv. w/ 435hp 427 & 4-spd w/ posi in triple black with red stinger

4) Koenigsegg CCX in silver

5) 31 Duesenburg Boattail Speedster in a pale yellow (the color of boston creme)

6) The Unimog

7) 35 Rolls Royce 20 25 Drophead in yellow and tan (currently one for sale @ $90,000)

8) 54 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing in black w/ red int.

9) Aston Martin DB9 GT in british racing green

10) Custom built Dodge M-37 w/ 12in. lift, 2 1/2 ton Rockwells turning 54in Boggers, powered by Cummins ISB, and w/ a PTO powered 20,000 lbs. winch.

#6 87 Grand National

#7 87 Olds 442 T-top

1) Prius
2) Smart car
3) Bigfoot monster truck!

4) destroy #1 and #2 with #3


I think If I were a billionair I would probably buy a fleet of spec Miatas or RX8's and have my own personal track built. Me and friends could race on weekends, it would be like a man size go cart track
