What cars would you buy for your friends and family?

For my mother, I would buy a VW Karmann Ghia and a Volvo P1800. She has fantastic taste in cars.

For my dad, I would buy an Audi S7. He used to own an A6 and has been yearning for a new Audi ever since, but unfortunately can't afford it at this time. The S7 is his current favorite Audi.

For my brother, I would buy a Chevy C10 shortbed and a VW bus. I think his ultimate goal in life is to live in a bus, so it would be perfect for him. He's extremely odd.

For my twin sister, I would buy a mildly lifted TJ Wrangler (with a stick, of course!). She's loved wranglers since we were kids and is hoping to buy one when she graduates after this upcoming semester.

My youngest brother would be getting a FJ60 Land Cruiser. He recently fell in love with these Cruisers on a trip to Wisconsin this summer where he got to see one up close and personal. He hasn't stopped talking about them since!

My best friend Ryan would be getting a 1966 Mustang in dark green. This is his dream car and he never shuts up about how much he loves them.

And finally, my grandpa would be getting a Jaguar E Type. He currently owns a 1991 Jaguar XJS and has always wanted an old Jaaaaaaaag.

Even though my family isn't into cars nearly as much as I am, if I ever struck it rich, I would love to buy these cars for everyone. What would you buy for your friends and family?

no cars, I'd buy their houses, for $250,000/ ea. Then without that house payment they can buy what they want.

Everyone in my family has houses less then that so they'd all likely get new cars with the left overs.

If I won 100mill that is. Less than that I'd give them $100K

Going with new options only for sake of simplicity:

QX70 for my mother (she had a rented one for a while and LOVED it:

An M6 for my dad (currently owns an E46 3 series):

A fully optioned LS 460 for my older sis (fancy but practical):

And for my younger older sis an A3 cabriolet (she doesn't drive but something small and fun is always nice):

The answer will vary terrifyingly depending on the day I get the money and where I'm at and what I feel like.

Suppose I pull up a local Cadillac dealer website.

Here's the part where I go to "formatting" and ask where the blue fuck my picture option is at...

Sigh.

Well, it was Escalade, XTS Vsport and ATS 2.0T stick for brother and his wife,

CTS V sedan, CTS VSport sedan, CTS V coupe stick for parents,

a surprisingly sharp (in white) ATS 2.0T AWD for wife,

and, well, having exhausted both of the new stick-shift cars for above,

I checked "Previously Owned" and got a Mini Cooper Clubman S in black with stick for myself.

(My wife's sister and her husband? Those SRX thingies, the fake RXes if someone presses me on it... Otherwise I'll shrug and walk a block and say, take a couple actual RXes from the Lexus dealer next door. Haw haw.)

I like the matching colors! It's up to their key-fobs to figure out which car to use...
