I would be shopping for a late 70's or early 80's FJ40 or Defender 90.

Where's autocorrect when you need it?

JMcLellan · 10-03-2022, 03:41 PM

Feels like this may be the only way to answer the "what would do with 1 million dollars" question....

Some of these answers are so funny and pragmatic and I think totally are missing the point of the thread.

Fine!

Probably have to get a used one though because I don't think a million will cut it.

Those are good looking cars!

andrewmr · 10-05-2022, 12:14 PM

If we are gonna assume we won a million dollars, then I'm gonna assume I can walk into a dealership and be able to buy one of these cars.

If there is enough left after taxes then let's go with a Ferrari SF90 Stradale. https://www.ferrari.com/en-US/auto/sf90-stradale

If not, then let's go with:

Porsche 992.2 GT3, https://www.porsche.com/usa/models/9...odels/911-gt3/
Chevrolet C8 Z06, https://www.chevrolet.com/upcoming-v...3-corvette-z06
and last but not least a Ducati Panigale Superleggra V4. https://www.ducati.com/ww/en/bikes/p...uperleggera-v4

In that order.

10" · 10-09-2022, 09:40 AM

you can have your Porsche 911s
the most unimaginative choice!

for me—-Simca 1000 Rallye 3

sure it will kill me when it's dinky rear-mounted engine bursts into flames after a Starbucks mom rams into the back of me with her Ford Exploder—-but all part of the fun right?!

forumlurker · 10-09-2022, 01:00 PM

Overlanding in style with this $900k behemoth

Turkish Pickle · 10-09-2022, 01:54 PM

I would pay off any and all existing debt, buy a condo and a parking spot, and go buy a G82 M4 non-comp Skyscraper/Fjord in that order. Some mods ofc will go into the M4 so put $15-20k towards that too.

Then $50k cash emergency fund, and rest would get invested

RPM33 · 10-11-2022, 10:47 PM

Possibly overpay for a GT3 or GT4 RS since I can’t get an allocation at MSRP.

Banana Hammock · 10-12-2022, 12:15 AM

Definitely a Midnight Purple II R34 GTR.

eluded · 10-12-2022, 01:41 AM

I'd upgrade the house first

CoreyWebster · 10-13-2022, 01:46 AM

A cherry Volkswagen type 3 Notchback

2008M36MT · 10-13-2022, 05:25 AM

I would keep what I already have. $1M does not change my position enough to warrant upgrading to anything new. Would invest immediately with the objective of retiring to retire a decade early instead.
