I have a lot of time in a 348 and 355 Challenge car and owned an E39 M5. Good choices.

I think my list would be way too long. I would probably have to narrow to one per manufacturer.

My Ferrari would be an F40. It's one of those things I've wanted since I was 5 years old. This one is a customers and I still get excited every time I've seen it.

I want a Huracan next with a TT setup though a Diablo VT is awfully cool.

Man I don't know I could make a list a million miles long.

We live near a bunch of car dealerships. One is a large second hand dealer owned by a Russian. There are 2 of these Trabants right around the corner from my house.

A Dino, F87 M2, modern SUV, and an old truck.

Of course it could get way more ridiculous, but I wouldn't be able to justify more than 4 or 5 cars.

I guess it would depend on what was at the end of the garage. If it ends at Waco streets, forget anything with Italian suspension. I'm too old to be leaning back, driving seven figures at 10mph over potholes and ditches.

I've always wanted one of those Prevost custom coaches:



Never understood why they always have to have such zany, 70's era van paint jobs, but I guess if I'm customizing, I'll get something more embarrassing painted on it.

If I'm really lucky, the other end of the garage will have open oceangoing access. I'll want the Kady-Krogen 60 open in it:



For more practical considerations, I'm really hoping the VW ID.Buzz turns out to be a workable vehicle:



That's about it, other than my 20 year old Trek 4500 mountain bike. I'm taking it with me no matter what I'm piloting.

If you want a VW Bus I'm on the pre order list and I won't be taking mine. You're welcome to have that spot and you'll save the couple hundred bucks I put down.

I really wanted one. Then I saw it at the auto show and it won't work for me. Way way way too small for what I intended to use it for.

Heh. I appreciate the offer, but I'm not going to be ready to buy for a couple of years yet. I'm counting on the EV network being built out a lot better by that time. Also, I'm a firm believer in never buying v1.0 of anything. With any luck, the current Toyota minivan will hold out until then.

The US versions never sold well. The Euro versions were very popular…kind of.

A real Escort Cosworth was an insurance group 20 in the UK so you had to be old and/or wealthy just to insure it. In the 90s more of those cars were stolen than sold. Ie they were being stolen from the people who stole them.

Always wanted one.




We got the Escort GT and the Merkur XR4Ti. The Merkur at least looked cool.
