Simple enough. Money is no object. Neither is functionality. 

I'm gonna think on this for a bit. But my first thought drifts towards the 91 Acura NSX. Then probably the 64 Aston Martin DB5. I know, I'm a hack. But I really love that car and those movies.

Good start here guys. This is a tough one for me because I have a really hard time picking just one car. THERE ARE SO MANY CARS. 

Ultimately, I'm a land yacht guy. Give me bench seats, over-boosted power steering, and a trunk that can swallow a house and I'll cruise up and down that road. 

I've had a few "downsized" land yachts (1990 Caprice, 1984 Delta 88, 1996 Buick Roadmaster Estate) but I think what I'd really like is a car my dad used to own, the Chrysler Newport. 

The "fuselage" style of the early 70s is just fantastic and everything after that was a downgrade.

Either a really big useless old hilarious brightly colored pickup from the 70s or a little also useless old Citroen 2cv because they're hilarious. 

 

I love cars that show their age. Shiny restorations are beautiful, but mine- I'd leave some character on it as long as it wasn't dangerous (rusted out frames/chassis). Not purposeful, like a rat rod, but one that shows its life.

 

Course... If we're talking total extravagance... I'm going 1930-32 Bugatti. Or a Dusenberg. Or a fleet of Packards and Pierce Arrows.

Excuse me but 2CVs aren't useless. They can drive through a farm field without breaking a basket of eggs!

I’m an Audi enthusiast, and most people’s dream Audi would be the R8. Don’t get me wrong, I’d take one... but I’d probably pick an RS7

If we're doing Audis then I'm going RS2 Avant.

I passed a Ferrari 458 Italia on my way home today. Nice looking car. Bit of a shiny dick with 2 chairs in it, though. Not that I wouldn't drive one. Wouldn't be my first choice though.
