+1 for a track car.

My other two lists are for road cars.

[Rich_W]

Can I just add that if I won the lottery, I wouldn't build "my dream E30" I'd just go get a CSL or GT2/3RS 997.

I like E30's but they aint the best car you can buy at the moment

I'm with you on the GT2/3RS as well!

[GrindCulture]

I probably would have an E30, if I won big lottery money I'd have quite a few cars. Why not?

I'd do both....dream E30 and a CSL!:D

[323iNathan]

I'm not sure I could make a finite list of all I'd like in an e30, because (hypothetically) when I managed to 'finish' it I'd start a new list of things to do! Its an ongoing thing...

I'm pretty sure that this wouldn't make the cut though...

[zaust]

My mrs is worried if we win the lottery.

She knows how bad i am when it comes to cars!

Seriously, i would need a large industrial unit to keep them all in and it wouldn't just be exotica.

I have a sick fettish for Fords as well as german cars.
