Three vehicle garage tonight. There is no limit to your budget, however you live where there is always snow on the ground. Terms like bomb cyclone , murder sheet , and razor taint are nonchalantly used by your local meteorologist but other days are like a living Hallmark card.

Build an awesome three vehicle snow party garage and as always, enjoy yo’self!

STi, 100 series Land Cruiser, and an E39 M5 on Nokian Hakkepeliittas.

And yes, the M5 will be my DD. Many snownuts will be done.

I don’t have much input for the ‘dream garage’ but came here to star for the absurdity of terms like “bomb cyclone” and “razor taint”

I will take

Gen 2 Ford Raptor

Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR. maybe without the wing

Lancia Stratos

And of course a brain and multiple sets of snow tires for each vehicle.

I think Ken Block has it figured out with his RaptorTrax

The gt4lusso is a good choice! I didn’t know they came with the V8 though. I thought it was only V12

This is from someone that never touched or even saw snow:

Audi R8 for when I’m late

Range Rover Sport for carrying friends and for snow storms

Vanquish Volante for RWD convertible hooliganism

They stick the 488s v8 in it. I like it more because the v12 is a bit too large, and expensive, and heavier... V8 is much better for me!

The Baja has an Sti running gear swap, and seats out of a mid 2000's Volvo s60. Boom. Three car ready-for-anything garage

Ill go for:

G500 4x4² with a set of tracks to swap on as needed

Scoobiedubaru Legacy Wagon (late 90s)

Koenigsegg Regera for those oddball beautiful days.

Daily? A current-gen FIAT Panda Cross! But.....those don’t exist here in Canada. We can ALMOST import the second-gen FIAT Panda though, so a second-gen Panda 4x4 or Panda Cross would be great too!

Other cars? A Citroen 2CV Sahara...because 2 engines = 4 driven wheels = awesome. Plenty of places in Europe and a few in the US rebuild/restore 2CVs with galvanized frames, so a rust-proofed Sahara would be a fun and unique snow car! :P

Last choice? Could also be a DD, but current-gen Suzuki Jimny....love the little plucky things!

Really the idea stands for all sorts of awesome cars.

Seriously, why do I really want a Cayenne?

A friend of mine has had several hot-rodded Audis (RS4/S4/R8) over the years, and damn if I don’t just love the hell out of them.

So yeah, I think I really like AWD German death-machines for winter wonderland chaos.

#1) For the deep days: Manual Trans Porsche Cayenne GTS (yes, the V8 COULD be special ordered with a stick if you were patient and waited for the build)

#2) After the plow has been by I gotta agree with the AspiringEngineer here: Ferrari gtc4lusso v8.

#3) For the REALLY bad days: An Avtoros Shaman.

RAZOR TAINT’s latest album, MVRDER SHEET II: THE REMVRDERING, was kind of a disappointment.

First and foremost: If anyone knows anyplace where the weather man/woman throws around the term “razor taint” regularly then let me know, because I’ll move there immediately.

On to the list ( Disclaimer: You said no limit, so I’m including a yet to be released car. Sorry not sorry. )

Primary: 2019+ Volvo V40

Preferably in British Racing Green in performance trim with a manual.

Weekend: Rally Spec’ed Subaru BRZ/Toyota 86

Do I really need to explain myself?

Hellscape Storm: AEV Prospector Ram

Yea it’s amazing and I want it now.

I’ll take my FoRS for when there’s not too much snow. With Blizzak WS-80's it’s done just fine through the first couple months of snow we’ve gotten this winter.

For when things get bad, my F-150 with snow tires.

For the end of the world ice age zombiesnowpocalypse razor taint bomb cyclone, the Zil 4904 .

I’d take my LX470 to Arctic Trucks (the company that outfitted the Hilux that Top Gear drove to the Norh Pole) and have them do this to it:

Then I’ll send it over to ICON 4x4 to redo all the plastic things in aluminum and add some Apple CarPlay, upgrade the leather and wood, ICON all the things.

For the days the mighty Land Cruiser isn’t enough, UNIMOG:

I’ll tick the options boxes for snow plow and snow blower.

And finally, for Hallmarkesque weather, the Veyron:

I probably won’t take it up to 252mph on icy roads, but it’s so sure-footed and easy-to-drive, it’s gotta be the perfect car for this sort of thing.

Now someone, anyone, please make it so I can post articles to Oppo! No idea how to do that, but I have shit to share!
