9 1960s VW Beetles
New GTI

Best garage ever.

I'd only take 1967 Beetles. First year of the 12 volt electrical, and last year of the old style lights and euro bumpers. They also increased the engine from the 1300 to the 1500, so it was more powerful. IMO, the best year altogether.

My ideal garage would probably include:
1: BMW Z4 Coupe 6 Speed (The older style)
2: Honda Civic SI Mugen Edition (As a normal everyday car)
3: Audi S4
4: Porsche 911 S
5: Porsche Cayenne Twin-Turbo (Yes, I think it actually is a good looking car)
6:Aston Martin V8 Vantage S Coupe
7:Aston Martin Cygnet (Just because I ran out of options)
8:A John Cooper works Mini Cooper S with a Mini D supercharged motor
9:Honda s2000
10: I'll take a 1967 VW Beetle. Mint condition of course. ;)

I like the Alfa Romeo Spider on your list, but I'm surprised that so far, no-one has mentioned one of my all time favourites, namely the iconic Citroen DS; that car simply oozed class, Gallic elegance and style.
 
1. C63 AMG
2. E63 AMG
3. S65 AMG
4. SLR AMG
5. SL65 AMG
6. SLS AMG
7. ML65 AMG
8. GL63 AMG
9. CLS63 AMG
10. GLK AMG

Happy owner of a C63 AMG. :)

In no particular order:

1. Bugatti Veyron SuperSport (2012)
2. Nissan GTR Spec-V (2012)
3. Koenigsegg Agera R
4. Lamborghini Aventador
5. Gumpert Apollo
6. Porsche 918 Spyder Hybrid
7. Maserati GranTurismo MC
8. Ferrari 599 GTO
9. Pagani Zonda C12 F
10. Lamborghini Sesto Elemento (2012)

If only I had like $10,000,000...
 
I can't image I'd actually need 10 cars. I think I could make do with:

1) Lotus Elise. I'd put the exact model but I'd want a heavily modified one
2) Landrover Defender 110. Just in case I need something with off-road capabilities
3) Citroën C6. We always had Citroëns when I was a kid so I'd have one as a "normal"/airport run car
4) Smart Car (or when it's available a Murray T25). For town use.

Anything else would be ultra rare and hardly ever driven:

5) McLaren F1. The best supercar ever made
6) Ferrari 250 GTO. Possibly the best looking car ever made
7) Porsche 911 (993 GT2). I think you have to have a 911 in there somewhere
8) Pagani Zonda. As much to look at as to drive!
9) Mini Cooper. A real one. Not a BMW one. A real rule breaking car
10) Citroën DS. Just an amazing thing
 
  1. Tesla S
  2. Nissan Altima Hybrid
  3. F-150 - Sometimes you need a truck
  4. 2012 Audi A8 - Love the technology
  5. Audi R8
  6. Bugatti Veyron
  7. Lotus Elise
  8. BMW 7HS - Sometimes you want to ensure you get where you're going.
  9. MaxxPro Plus - Sometimes you really need to ensure you get where you're going.

I think that is enough for me.
 
1. MINI Cooper S JCW
2. Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Spyder Performante
3. Porsche Panamera Turbo
4. Audi RS4
5. Koenigsegg CCX
6. Cadillac Escalade ESV
7. BMW 1M Coupe
8. Lexus LS600hL
9. AC Cobra 429
10. Porsche 959
 
The AC Cobra 427 hemi choice makes me chuckle.

I remember reading in Road & Track at the time, that, due to the power to weight ratio, there were only a handful of drivers in the States at the time, that could handle one, without killing themselves.

There is a mint 289 AC Cobra in my area, and it is tres sweet. That would do me, thanks.
 
1. Aston Martin DBS
2. SLR MacLaren 722
3. Ferrari 458
4. Ferrari 275 GTS
5. Jaguar E-Type
6. Bugatti Veyron
7. Lamborghini Reventon
8. Porsche Carrera GT
9. Pagani Zonda Roadster
10. Alfa Romeo 8C

Mine is almost the exact same as yours. All amazing cars
 
Here are my ten;

(1) 2009 Hummer H3 Alpha (Own)
(2) 2006 Hummer H1 Alpha (Wagon)
(3) 2006 Hummer H1 Alpha (Open Top)
(4) "2009" Hummer HX (Transformer Movie Prop)
(5) "2009" Hummer H3T (Transformers Movie Prop)
(6) 2012 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
(7) 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZR1
(8) 2012 Chevrolet Volt
(9) 1977 Ford Bronco
(10) 2012 Dodge Charger Pursuit ("Company Take Home Car")

Edit to Add: jessica. below reminded me of something I'd have in the garage but could be used by various rides; a restored and customized military M416 trailer for tailgating and a second for serving as a bike shop on wheels and getting the mountain bikes to the trail head.

Hitler would be proud ;)

But seriously, at least that's the good years for the VW Beetles.

:rolleyes:



1952 Porsche 356
My 2009 Honda Ridgeline
Audi R6
1977 Ford Bronco
1977 and 2012 Camaro (1977 model to be the Z28)

That does it for cars.
Bikes:
Triumph Bonnieville (current year)
Triumph Speedmaster (current year)
Royal Enfield Bullet C5 Military (current year)

And a trailer for taking the bike up to the mountains to ride. :D
 
Honda Aero 125 Scooter. How could anyone possibly want any more than this?

I think my perfect 10 car garage would be 9 bays empty, and have a lift. :D
