We've all seen this before on Facebook but lets hear it from this crowd.  What 3 cars would be in your perfect garage?  Don't include things like tow vehicles or daily drivers unless you just really want to.

 

#1 - 1968 Ford Mustang Bullit (or restomod replica)

 

#2 - Gunther Werks Porsche 400R 

 

#3 - R33 Nissan Skyline GT-R V-spec (I owned a couple GTS25T's but I want Godzilla)

 

Some close runner ups would be a 2015+ GT350, a Porsche 964, and a 1970 Malibu with a big block.

Buick Grand National

Bugatti Veyron

1956 Buick Century 

Assuming that I have my other vehicles available for towing, DD, etc. And assuming that I could actually afford operating costs on those.

Not including a daily or tow vehicle. 

My 1993 Civic but all done up the way I want

An AE86 with ITBs and a lot of JDM hotness

The last one is a hard one. I'd love to say a popup headlight NSX, an aircooled Porsche, a hot Ford Cosworth of some sort, a 69 Charger, a Caterham 7, an R32 GTR or a Morgan Aero8 Supersport. But ultimately I think it would have to be something with a usable backseat and I think RHD would get annoying so I'd go Opel Lotus Omega.

Shouldn't you have one that's not a Ford so you have one you can drive?

I pretty much have it for modern stuff. 

  • V8 R8 Spyder for daily use. 
  • V10 Dodge Viper ACR setup for Track
  • V12 LP640 Manual, maybe swap for a gated Diablo that needs work. 

This is my final garage goals. Just waiting on finding a good gated merci and I am done.

Nope. The thrill of vehicle ownership is purely theoretical for me. Driving them? That's just gravy on the cake. cheeky

Except in Patrick's Wartburg green, LS, and maybe a set of boosties.

 1999 Lamborghini GT. For some reason my hotlink isn't pasting, but all satin black exterior, neon green accents.

And this. Modern coyote power plant,  maybe a mild lift to fit 33s and that's it.

For a real world garage for the two of us, I'm pretty much there. 

Daily driver, road trip, do it all car: Mercedes E400 wagon.  Would be an E63 if money were no object. 

Fun analog top down car: Original NSX-T

Beast of burden: Suburban

I have them all right now, plus a few others, but those are the ones we are keeping, other than the race cars.  

Not pictured here, the Suburban
