If you had $100k

If you had $100k to spend only on cars, what would you get?

Me
07 Stang, modified
65 Convertible in red - ultimate cruiser
hope I could find an Ariel Atom shell for under 10k
99 Jetta TDI - for a daily driver (50+ mpg, eat that Prius)
and a 07 F250 Super Duty to tow the beasts around

See my sig. I'm pretty happy with the five cars I have now, and that's about what I have wrapped up in them. $100k would leave about $5k left over for mods.

I would assemble my favorite owned cars again. Or replicas thereof.

The Awesome, of course.
The Muskrat, of course.
The Mark, a 1987 Lincoln Mark VII. Best car I ever owned... hopefully Awesome will eclipse that.
The Orange Bomb, but done up so she would actually be a decent car. This was my first, a 1978 Mustang II, and is the only lemon in the bunch... but she'd not be after a 5.0/AOD implant.

If there was any left over, probabaly a garage to keep them in.
