What car would you buy? Please only pick one and give us the reason why.

Mercedes-Benz SLR Mclaren Its my favorite super car. I don't care for manual transmissions, because If I'm going to buy it I'm going to drive it often. That and come on it's just gorgeous.

 

So many tough choices...

If I won 10 million dollars, I'd hire someone to decide for me.

 

Hmmm ... there's too many choices ... but since I can only pick one ...

A 1962 Jaguar XKE roadster, with the V12 in mint condition. I've always wanted one of those.

Like this one ... http://www.drautos.com/Search/DRauSe...?itemid=172126

 

If I had 10 million I would have to buy an Aston Martin and a P-51 mustang or maybe a rebuilt Russian MIG.

 

Even if you had 10 mil, You wouldn't be able to buy a 1962 XKE with a V12, they weren't available with a V12 until 1971.
But the '62 with the DOHC 6 had much better proportions than the V12 model.
So they looked alot better.

 

Aston-Martin DB9.

...sT

 

Mercedes McLaren.

 

I would try to get my hands on one of the original Cobra Daytona Coupes. 10 million wouldn't get you into a Bugatti Atlanta Coupe or a Ferrari 250 GTO.

Second choice; Miller 91 straight eight FWD. That would leave enough spare change for a Wiesmann GT Coupe as a daily driver.

 

Hmmm... If I won $10 million dollars I would buy the McLaren F1. Drop dead gorgeous in my opinion and supercar performance.

Top Speed 240.1mph
0-60 3.2s
0-100 6.3s
0-150 12.8s
0-200 28s
1/4 mile11.1s @ 138 mph

If I only won $1 million I would buy an Audi R8. Cool looks, supercar performance and Audi attention to detail. Of course, my daily driver would have to be the Audi RS6.

Lincoln Mark II . Made in '56/'57, four convertibles built in '57 (one's in Graceland). The first $10,000.00 production car in the US, and Ford lost thousands at that price. Only option was AC, which had a trunk-mounted compressor and a series of chrome vents in the headliner, all of which added 750 lbs to the car.
For any cork sniffers who consider this a redneck choice, a Mark II took Best in Show at Pebble Beach Concours a couple of years ago.

Here's a chopped '56...

I'd get me one of these... ever since the night I got a ride in one I've had the hots for one...

 

I would just have to get my hands on a 1991 Jaguar XJ220. To me it is the most beautiful car ever built. I saw it when I was young and have been in love with it ever since.



Then for my daily driver I would have a Porsche 911 GT3.

 

Let me see.... Hmmm...The Noble M12 GTO Coupe. Lee Noble designs an amazing supercar.

No, maybe the Lamborghini Murcielago. No, no... I'll also have to consider the Pagani Zonda C12 or possibly the Ferrari 550 Barchetta Pininfarina (because I like the name).

O.K. I'm going with the Bugatti Veyron.

Only 10 million huh... ...

 

With the spare change I'd have to pick up the 1954 Aston Martin Arnolt DB2/4 Spyder - Bertone. Anyone have one? There were only 3 made.

 

1. Porsche Carrera GT

Ok first I can't read because I was greedy and picked four and told no one way. My bad!!! I have decided upon the porsche because of the looks. The way the car looks is just amazing to me and plus it is a porsche which means it will last forever.

 

Is that 10 million before or after taxes...lol.

I'd have a supercar built. R&D & Production costs would probably take around 3-5 million and then with the change I'd buy a Mercedes McLaren (super tight).

 

McLaren F1.
Any of Ayrton Senna's f1 cars
...and, of course, anything my wife wanted!

 

Pagani Zonda F. http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dl...=301009&Ref=PH
Saw a regular Zonda at Lime Rock a few years back and the interior was absolutely gorgeous.

 

With 10 mil, probably the first thing I'd do is pay off the cars I now have.
Then I'd treat myself to a perfectly restored mid 60's Jaguar XKE coupe.
If I couldn't find one, then it would probably be a 67' Corvette coupe.
Next, I'd talk my wife into buying that Ford GT "Gibsonjunkie" is sitting in.
