what would happen if you won the lottery? Would you buy a hypercar? What would do with it? It seems like it would a nightmare streetdriving it when you are paranoid about every pothole? I feel like I would just get a 911 turbo S and call it a day.

I would buy land build a garage and buy a bunch of projects

This. Why would you pay for one car you'll end up finding boring after 5 years when you could instead have a hobby for life?
>>
>>14496371
I would get a toyota camry and one of every literbike and probably a grom for the luls

Id buy one of those Singer's dream machines and travel everywhere with it.
They'll become the next boomer-mobile, I'm sure.

Doubt it. Xers maybe. Sure there will be some rich 60-70 year olds, but not even300 of them.

Some suv

You got what I meant. They'll become the cars today's 30-ish guys will have and lust for in another 20 years or so.

Probably just buy my own house/garage and go find some project cars I really like. Lots of motorcycles, tools, and parts I wasn't able to afford before.

Get a nice car for a DD but nothing flashy. Start paying bills off automatically. Continue going to school and not have to worry about paying stuff by working part time.

also fix my dad's 70s car
>>
>>14496440
I didn't until you said 30-ish in this post. If you mean 30-ish, say 30-ish or Xers.

I would resist the temptation to get something too rare, and get something like an F430, Commiefornia, or Gallardo that there's a million of out there that I can drive the shit out of and get fuckloads of miles out of without feeling like I took a shit on some rare precious piece of art.


And get a nice classic HEMI MOPAR as the showcar.

I wish you'd just buy one already

>>14496447
I don't believe that much on the whole generation thing.
But I find funny that, even though Porsches should've become a thing for older richer guys, to drive on Sundays, all I see is newer, not-so-rich guys, using them as either GT's or track cars.

i would rent one for a couple of weeks and then buy a hundred shitboxes

I'd finish building my Legacy GT, then buy some other cars I've been wanting like a Twingo with a cloth sunroof, an FD RX-7, and a project turd gen to do a 4th gen ls1/t56 swap in. Maybe a house with a decent garage. I wouldn't spend too much of it at once so I'd be able to live comfortably while still working.

How big a lotto?
Completely affects it, if I won 5mil no way could I afford to run a Hypercar
>>
>>14496402
Because hyper cars usually retain their value or go up.
>>
would buy a 488gtb and work on some projects..

and some Panamera as daily driver
>>
I would buy Dodge Ram 3500. Longhorn, Cummins, crew cab, 4x4. Then I would supercharge it, put a 4" lift, mudders, and then get a window sticker saying "lift it, fat chicks cant jump."

Yeah depends how much we're talking..
Say in the UK, national lottery would be around £10m.. I wouldn't go nuts with that, I'd probably spend £1m building a nice house in the country with plenty of land, and probably half a dozen cars, but I'd be smart, buy stuff that would hold value etc, and use the rest of the money to just support myself.

If it's Euromillion money, which is can be £100m+ then I'd go all out. I still wouldn't buy hypercars as such (depending on your definition) but I'd build a helluva car collection full of cult classics, Group B specials, JDM legends, classic muscle cars etc.

>>
>>14496371
I would buy a fully outfitted machine/wood shop and build some insane shit I can't afford to build today.
>>
I would buy an MR2 turbo, because I think they're cool
I don't know what to do with the rest of the money
>>
>>14496371

I'd get one hypercar I think, maybe some Koenigsegg, they'd build it after my specification. I prefer old classics, but it'd be fun to take it for a blast a few nights in a year.
>>
>>14497486
So long as you don't put too many miles on them. Hyper cars are investments not enthusiast vehicles. And I'm sure there are other things you could invest in with better returns.

Audi Quattro and then something to daily

>not using your lottery winnings to fund a global player classic car restoration company
This is the sort of stuff you need a millionaire's budget for. Not just bolting some newer pieces onto some boomermobile in your garage, but restoring classic cars to pristine condition which require extensive custom fabrication and where the rotten rolling shells alone cost upwards of $100,000, but sell for ten times more when restored. Plus you're doing a good deed towards the motoring community.

Disclaimer I'm white.

I would honestly buy something outrageous I'd never buy unless I win the lotto. I'd go buy a show tier low rider that can stand on its rear bumper like that one the ghymkana video. I'd three wheel in all white neighborhoods and be a stupid fuck with it.
>>
>>14500389
So you're not white.
>>
>>14500409
Very white. Which is why I'd never get one unless I won the lotto. Think of the roadkill episode where they buy a low rider. Only I'd get a way better one and not off-road it.
>>
>>14496371
If I won the lottery and assuming its the jackpot (lets just say 140 million after tax n shit), I will probably hire personal finance dudes, lawyers, accountants, etc.. Then I will move out of the country for vacation (hiding) and come back whenever I want. Once I come back, I would proceed to buy something enclosed and rural, like up in the hills.

I will see if it has a good garage or not and decide there.

But flash forward to the car decision, I would NOT buy a fucking hypercar. They're good to look at but terrible to drive (unless you're a skilled/professional track driver, you're pretty much driving a car not meant for common roads nor you).

I will just grab myself a S-Maybach as a daily drive. Its subtle yet luxurious in many ways.

But yeah, fuck hypercars.

Why you wanna go hide, anon? You been a bad boy?
>>
>>14496371
First buy would probably be a loaded crew cab, short bed truck. Slam the fuck out of it, use it as a DD.

Then it's just investing in real estate, and buying a shitload of project vehicles. Hell, there's an old decrepit factory near me, probably basically worthless. I'd buy it and turn it into a Leno-tier garage if I had the money.
>>
>>14496453
Why buy a Hemi B-body when it'll be impossible to actually drive it? Personally, I'd just swap a brand new 2nd gen Hemi (or maybe a 426 3rd gen with an aluminium block) into an A-body. Way more fun, and actually useable.

More of a triple turbo guy myself, but you just can't deny that supercharge whine sounds sexy as fuck.

>>
>>14500690
Twin charge is a supercharger and a turbo charger. Triple tirbo would be pus.
>>
>>14500383
Given that I'm not under draconian US import laws:

Import an R34 GTS-T
Full V spec exterior
Chrysler Plum Crazy purple instead of the usual Midnight purple
VK50 from a V8 Supercar
Rebuild engine, lower compression, add twin screw supercharger

only if you're not the one driving it

and let's be honest, you don't need a driver unless you're travelling a lot. hiring a driver to go to the grocery store is a gigantic waste of money

>owning a car like that
>literally not a singular part available anywhere anymore

Ok for body panels and that sort of stuff, it was probably hand made for such a car back then so one can hand make it now, but a cast piece? That cost of ordering manufacture of a small series, mfw
>>
>>14501104
Actually, small production numbers are getting easier and easier. You can just plop a design into a relatively cheap 5-acis CNC machine, and have it ready within a few hours, at quite low cost. If you have to cast, 3D-printing molds and negatives is cheap as hell for limited production runs. If it has to be forged, prices of forging dies have been greatly reduced by CNC machining.

Supercar dude, you don't know what your saying. I'd buy one Twingo. Wait. Thousand of them. Million on them! (2.4 millions were sold in the world) I would make the twingo wall in the world, splitting east and west america. Make the twingwall. Shit would be so cute every car fanatic of the world would come to see. Japanese kawaii girls would even come settle down in the us because too much kawai.

You thing random Euro 20 somethings are driving around in Delta Integrales? It would be much easier to afford, drive, and track one if you wanted to vintage race it if you lived in the US. You can afford this thing now - http://www.copart.com/us/Lot/15418526

I would buy a CTS-V coupe for daily driving, and an R34 for project/funzies. I would also trick out a scion TC as hard as I could just because I know it will piss someone off.
