One for every day of the week...
If you won the lottery, what would it be? One almighty supercar or a few excellent cars chosen wisely to make a fleet for weekly service?
If I had to pick just one: BMW M5 (or M3) One for each day of the week: Sun BMW M3 Mon AMG E55 Tues 911 Turbo Wed HSV Coupe 4 Thurs DJR 320 Fri Ferrari F355 Sat Ferrari 246 Dino Last edited by Mattracer; 27 Dec 2003 at 10:55. |

I would have to settle for a Zonta (or however you spell the thing) for every day. Maybe different colurs so I knew which was which?

Dunno whether I'd stick to the days of the week, but I'd soon find seven cars...
Lamborghini Murcielago Bentley Arnage T Porsche Cayenne Turbo Audi ur-Quattro (1983 ex works Group B) Ferrari 250/275 (GTO, LM, Testarossa - y'know I really don't mind which! ) Porsche Carrera GT Pagani Zonda C12S Ferrari Enzo OK, that's eight cars, but I can't decide which to drop. Let's say a spare in case one doesn't start (there's a couple of Italians in there after all... ) Thinking about it, I reckon I'd have a couple of extras too. A 911 would need to be in there - I'd take a GT3 from the current line up. And maybe something unobtrusive but comfortable like a (well) used Lexus LS400 for when I don't want to be noticed!

I didn't choose a WRX cos I've already got one!
The thing is, a WRX is a pretty good compromise - quick, practical, reasonable running costs etc - so it might be more popular if you had to choose ONE car. If you can choose seven who needs to compromise?! |

Try and stretch it to 6 days. Won't matter on the seventh - the 6R4 won't be road legal anyway!
