Default 10 cars

At work we've been compiling a list (why I don't know) of "if you had an unlimited amount of money but could only have 10 cars what would they be". You must list a Year, Make, Model, and Color. Remember It can be any car, so long as it still exist that means you can have a porsche spyder, but you can't have James Dean's Porsche Spyder. Here is my list and I look forward to seeing yours.

"new" Caparo Freestream T1 orange
"new" Porsche Cayman S blue
"new" Koenigsegg CCX orange
"new" Chrysler Crossfire SRT6 blue
"new" Mercedes S Class AMG red
"new" Mercedes 722 SLR silver
"new" Ferrari 599 GTB red
"new" Porsche 911 GT2 silver
"new" Porsche Carrera GT silver
1985 Lamborghini Countach white

Remember, you can only have 10 cars per family which means if you have a wife she better be ready to drive one.

I would seek out a floor plan of Jay Leno's garage with the location of each car stored within plotted. I would then take said floor plan with plotted car locations and tape it to the wall. I would then take 10 darts and start throwing. Whichever 10 cars I hit would be my choices and I'm sure I'd be most happy.

Mine is somewhat more practical.
  • 2004 Crossfire w/ 6.1 V8 upgrade - Red
  • 1965 Lincoln Continental Vert - Black
  • 1969 Chevy Camaro SS/RS - Hugger Orange
  • 1977 Porsche 930 - Guards Red
  • 2005 MBZ G55 AMG - Black
  • 2003 BMW Z8 - Silver
  • 2007 Lambo Murcielago Roadster - Verde Ithica
  • 2008 Mitsubishi Evo X - Blue
  • 1998 Toyota Supra RZ - Blue Mica Metallic
  • 1996 Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R 400R - Silver

FP, 1948 would be the year you're looking for on the Porsche 356 Roadster.

3 of my must haves are currently in my garage. It took a long time and a lot of cars to acquire them. After these its just a list of other muscle cars that I most likely never had and always wanted.

1) '68 Camaro RS/SS Convertible big block 396/350
2) '66 Corvette
3) Stealth RT Twin Turbo

all 3 are original, and the others would have to be too. I am a purist what can I say.
