I'd rather take a Lamborghini Aventador SV.

Lambos are over-priced and over-rated IMO!

That Porsche 918 is over $850,000 each.

I can buy 3 BMW i8 and an Aston Martin Vanguish Volante Roadster Convertible!

Those cars are pretty, just too curvy for my taste. smile I still dream of the more angular lines of yesterday's supercars...

Agreed on the Lambos.

The 918 beat a McLaren P1.

As for the OP, I'd rather have a Tesla Model S.

If I had the money, there's probably no car in existence that I wouldn't add to my Leno-type garage for one reason or another.

At the sticker price, that's a LOT of car. Performance and somewhat livable with impressive tech. It makes me think more of the Merc AMG GT than the Porsche.
I wonder what they'll *actually* sell for?

No. Absolutely not.

BMW is a car maker that wants to prohibit you from even opening your own hood to check your oil. They want "owners" to be hands-off for any and all technical aspect.

I will never support them with my money.

I would instead save a whole boatload of cash and buy a used Lotus Exige S.

I too love sports cars, but to be honest even if I had the funds.
I would not buy one. I would buy a jag saloon and a track car.

My dream car is not a super car, I love the Dodge Charger Hellcat SRT 4-door sedan. I would take it before any other car right now.

"Resto modded" classic plz.



But really if I was going to spend that kind of money on a vehicle it'd probably fly, float, or be an expeditionary RV modded Unimog or Kamaz.

That's an Eagle low-drag XKE isn't it ? Eagle does some really brilliant refreshing of Jaguars.

A 1969ish Jag XKE convertible would be very high in my want list.

E-Type, there's an E-Type specialty shop very close to where I live and I drool every time I walk by.

A resto modded air cooled Porsche like a Singer would be acceptable as well.

I wouldn't exactly throw one of these away either...

I'd be happy with a Nissan GT-R, and spend the rest on hookers and blow biggrin

Got to say I would. It had me at 357 HP and 428 PF. :-).....assuming by having the money, it means I have the discretionary moola for a few naturally aspirated cars of my choice too.
Great forward thinking in my eyes for that BMW.
