What Was Your Five-Car Fantasy Garage?

A little while back Tom McParland asked everyone, “ !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! ” That post has so many comments that I’d rather just ask you guys to tell me what your choices were instead of trudging through all that. Check the link to see his criteria if you missed out. I’ll even participate and tell you mine!

Jaguar XJL Supersport (Doug Demuro is damn lucky !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! ).

Audi Q7 6.0 V12 TDI (I think 500hp and 738 lb-ft of torque are just enough to get me around the Mall parking lot).

Ferrari F70 LaFezza Fxx K (because art and Fxx King racecar).

Dodge Power Wagon (I could spend a lifetime modifying these).

De Tomaso Vallelunga (1,600 lbs and every engine mod/swap sounds like a great idea).

That’s my feeling right now. How about you guys?

If you buy an RS7 in any color other than nardo gray, or whatever its called, a baby dies.

I had a really hard time picking out each car, but I managed to figure out what kind of cars I would choose:

Daily driver. Probably a pony car or hot hatch. Tough choice.

Work truck. An old square-body Chevy with a 350 (or 454) and an 8-foot bed.

Classic sports car. (I have a soft spot for the S30.)

Modern sports car. Very tough choice. Corvette?

Comfy cruiser. Maybe a mid-’90s Impala or Town Car.

I’d take an R8 in that color too. I guess I should have mentioned that my cars would be the same color as the ones in the pics. Except for the singer, they can pick the color, I don’t care, just give it.

Since maintenance isn’t a worry, I’ll start with an SUV: Touareg V10 TDI

Kinja'd!!!

For the lazy days where I need more than one or two seats, but I’m not feeling the truck, I’ll take an Audi S8 Plus.

Kinja'd!!!

I’m tempted to go with a BAC Mono as a track day (yet somehow street legal) car, but since we’re in fantasyland, I’ll combine my track car with a classic car: Ferrari P4.

Kinja'd!!!

Behind door #4, you’ll find my daily driver.....Porsche 911 Targa 4 GTS.

Kinja'd!!!

Lastly, for the sunny days when you just don’t care, a 1957 Mercedes 300SL Roadster. Because roadsters are forever.

I am going to assume extensive modifications are allowed so I am not too worried about the “Once you have made your selection you will be stuck with these cars for the rest of your life” part. Also, I will assume rentals are allowed if I really want/need to drive something else.

1) 2005 Mazda Miata (highly modified for track days but no FI, Maybe a Kmotor swap)

2) 2002 Mazda Rx7 (with rotary, highly modified to make fun noises but still streetable)

3) 1991 Mazda 787B

4) 2002 Subaru Legacy GT-B Wagon (mostly stock, need a daily driver to get to the ski mountain and carry people around)

5) 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa (gotta have something classy)
