You guys sure think small. I really don't have a favorite car when there are no limitations. I'd buy every car I wanted, then every car that caught my eye. Then any car that caught anybody else's eye. Then I'd buy Arizona to keep my cars in air-conditioned hangars there. Then, since i'm still not out of money, I'd buy all the girls in Asia.

this is how it would work:

ITEM: A one-of-a-kind personally owned car.
me: That's a great car! How much for it?
they: It's not for sale at any price.
me: Really? Think of any figure that would make it worth your while....
.... then double it .....
.... why, thank you for the keys!

or

ITEM: A one-of-a-kind corporate owned car.
me: That's a great car! How much for it?
corporation: It's not for sale at any price.
me: I just bought your company(s). I now own the car as well. Bye.


This sure is fun!

Bently Turbo R, but I would keep the S2K and modify it with every percievable part there is. If it doesn't exist then I'll have one custom made.

Hmmm, I don't know about that SkyCar, I think I've seen that nose wheel somewhere before....like on a shopping cart at K-Mart!

All the money in the world means I could hire all the best automotive pros away from Honda, MB, ah heck, all of 'em. & tell em to build me one of those speed racer cars. Yeah, that's it, the X-5!

Then of course I'd get a B-747-400 to cart the thing around in. If you haven't flown the -400, I highly recomend it. It flies like a much smaller jet, plus the food ain't half bad either.
