Aston Martin DB5
Ford GT-40 (any variant)
1956 Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France

50-51 Custom Merc
27-32 Ford chopped up into a dry lakes racer
 
The "family" car from late high school. early college. It was mine to drive pretty much in college. I loved driving this powder blue, 1966, 289 V8 Mustang coupe. Had a factory, 8-track tape deck. Man I loved that car. Whatever else I bought, I'd want this in my garage. :D

For myself, I would have to pick myself up a couple of BMW Ms. Favorite make and model. Thing is I dislike over-ostentatiousness, so not the top of the liners with the over the top styling, (although with $500 mil I might have to give the M6 and its ridiculous 500hp V-10 a try just for the hell of it). But probably just the 3-series Ms. Think they look better. More muscular. Maybe a black modern M3, and maybe try to find one of the originals from 1995 in silver to restore.

But then I would have to get my brothers some cars. For the youngest (the old car guy), help him finish restoring his 1971 Challenger (is gonna cost $15,000 to paint + bodywork!), + maybe get him another old toy ala a vintage Mach 1 or Charger, and I think buy him a modern Mustang now that they have finally gone back to true muscle car styling (the Mustang being the only one he has fully endorsed as authentic enough) so that he would have a real car to drive rather than just an old toy. My middle brother..is not a car guy, so its kind of hard to tell what to get him. Probably just something midrange. Nice, but not too nice. He'd feel embarrased at anything too flashy. Oh, and then my mom...she has said she wants a jeep so she can go places. A PINK jeep. Not sure whether I could bring myself to do that one. She'd onyl get into trouble anyway.

Not doing it would make you a bad, bad son.

Gotta go hot pink. Metallic. With flames. :D
 
Brick try the new M Coupe on for size. I own one of the older ones but the new ones have styling with greater mass appeal. I'd probably pick one of those up along with a 2002 M Coupe (mine's a 2000) if my garage was big enough after everything else I listed.

I also really like the 88 M5s. I remember seeing one brand new at the dealership when they brought them over to the US and falling in love with the car. Lots of people tried to convince me it was an M3 but they were wrong. My dad picked one up a few years back and its still a great car. There are quite a few other bimmers I left off my list because they aren't glamour cars as well.

Ugh..this is my sister's. I love Jeeps and have one myself.This is what I drive when I go visit the family. I shouldn't complain..at least I have something to drive around. You should see the looks I get on the freeways!! :eek:

 
I have a VERY long list and some of the previously mentioned would definitely make my wish list too... but here is one of my favorite dream cars
