If you were a multi-millionaire would you still own or drive an S2K?

Say you just banked on a big investment or business venture, or just won a big lottery, and you now had 100 million or more after taxes to spend..
Would you still drive/keep your S2K? Would you get a new one? Install some of add-ons?
Me, well I got rid of my Stook last summer. If I got rich all of a sudden I dunno, the Stook wouldn't be so appealing anymore. I always say I'm a frugal guy and I'd stay that way even if I were a billionaire, but the thought of driving a Ferrari Modena F1 roadster(or similar) is very appealing, not to mention many other vehicles..
In fact, if anything I think I'd probably set something up with a local exotic dealer to simply have a different car every couple or few weeks. Perhaps I could just pay him a little more than the equivalent of a normal car payment and just 'rent' the cars from him. Better still, Id just start my own exotic car company. That way it would be a legitimate business and I could still be frugal
Enough ramble. Where would the stook stand if you were filthy rich.
BE HONEST!

The NSX is not 'exotic' . . .
What's up with the Honda/BMW bias?
Come on dude, you have HUNDREDS of MILLIONS!!
Get something unique!! Shoot even an old 60s Camaro SS or whatever?
I plan to get a 63-67 Vette myself, preferably a '67..

With that kind of $$ there would be a Ferrari in my life. I think it is genetic. If you are male, you want a Ferrari. If you are Female, then you only MIGHT want a Ferrari.
Sorry to be so non PC.
My choice: Red Modena Cabriolet.
If I just had 5 million, then I'd get the same car but probably keep it for only six months.
1-2 million, and I have the best imitation Ferrari out there... an S2K.
Just my view of this beach.

Yea, only it would become my beater and I'd buy a 360 Modena for my special occasion ride. Oh what the heck, I might as well get a Porsche 911 turbo, 2001 Goldwing, Suzuki GSXR..need I go on.
