My dream car is a GT2RS. Fell in love with it since 2011. Fast forward to 2019 and I found a new one with no markup!!! Odometer showed 13 miles when I picked it up and after two weeks of owning it’s at 350.

Gonna catch a lot of flak for this... but I want a simple 718 S model. It’s really all I need.

Once the Duesenberg was procured, I would add some variety with a Delahaye, MB 500K, and a Cadillac V-16 coupe.

Throwing Grey Poupon at the serfs passing by in their cute little space ship looking things would be a “sport”.

I'd be quite happy with an Eagle Spyder GT.

Most of the cars mentioned I couldn’t even fit in with any comfort

I’d go for a AMG G Class, I’m cheap

Hmmm this is a tough one. Nothing like a classic Ferrari - ultimately though I'd probably go for a 911 of some variation.

Not into cars at all, but if I had to pick one it would be John Lennon's yellow submarine Rolls-Royce Phantom V too.

This is an impossible question for me. How do I pick just ONE car?

With unlimited funds, I would have several cars. My stable would look something like this:

Daily Driver #1 - Ford Raptor with the Hennessey Velociraptor package (regular version, not the 6x6 version)

Daily Driver #2 - Range Rover SVAutobiography Dynamic - for when I need a nicer daily driver

Wife's Daily - Porsche Macan Turbo

Weekend Car/Date Night Car - Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet - for the wife and I to enjoy on date night

Weekend Car/Date Night Car #2 - Mercedes Benz AMG S-Class - for when we got out with another couple. This would also be the church car and the date night car when it is raining.

Track Car/Fun Car - Porsche 911 GT3/2 RS - with unlimited funds, track days would be a normal thing

Exotic - Ferrari 488 Spider - every collection needs an exotic

Wild Card - Fully Outfitted and Restored Jeep CJ7

I know. I know. Nothing classic but something would be added down the line.

What is your dream car if you had unlimited money?

The car of my dreams is a car that I absolutely love.

Design, performance, build quality, heritage , options, aftermarket parts, ease of repair in my own garage and most important of all, how much will I enjoy driving it.

The dream car is always evolving - Right now it is the Volkswagen Golf R. There is NOTHING in the world (TO ME) that can top how much that car tickles my fancy.

Maybe I’m missing the question because it is very much attainable from a financial standpoint but it isn’t sold in Colombia - So yeah, I’d need unlimited funds to bring it and maintain it here.

In case anyone doesn’t know what a Golf R is ...

Without dreams what do we have?

I kinda like this one too.
The colour is factory "Viola".
Never sure whether I prefer the earlier Plexiglas fairing models or later pop-up lights.
