If you won the lottery would you keep your 86/BRZ?

NSX-R, P1 GTR, LFA and two dedicated track cars (CTR and 911 GT2RS).. Maybe a lower end 911/cayman for daily.

I have noticed plenty of people that are wealthy enough for multiple cars, and they end up keeping it, they just keep it clean and add original japanese parts, which are expensive.

I would keep it, drop a full build around a 2jz and get my dream car, the almighty beast from green hell: the Mercedes AMG GTR.

[Stomachbuzz]

I probably wouldn't keep the one I have now.

While there's nothing wrong with it, and it's still quite young at 54k miles, it's been a street-parked DD.
Couple of small dings, paint chips, faded headlights, seats are a bit icky, etc.

I'd probably go out and buy an overpriced brand new one and then have my way with it because I enjoy the mod-ability of the chassis, and it's the newest chassis that's like that.
20 years ago, I might have felt the same way about the 240sx or EG hatch.

I assume what would happen is I buy all the 'fun parts' and get it to where *I think* I want it. Then slowly realize some limitations in the chassis.

Then go buy a new Corvette that's 10x better

[PulsarBeeerz]

I'd keep it and keep modding it. I bought it to have a never ending project anyway. I'd of course buy X sports car as well.

[Kiske]

Yep, there is no car I feel more confident in as I hit the wall. It's a cheap car. The only cheaper car I own is my RX-7 and I'd be heart broken if I crashed it simply because the fact that GOOD, CLEAN parts and bodies are getting harder to find.

That being said most of my funds would go into a project called DIPSHIT GARAGE. Be getting a Velocity TV show and everything. I'll just troll the forums looking for all those stupid pipe dream thoughts and photoshops and build them.

I'm going to start with a twins, building all these what-if's and then testing them. The show will end with either the car surviving or grenading. Basiclly a garage/TV show where we break shit. Push that shit to 16kRPMS? Lights, camera, ACTION!

Rocket Bunny All The Things!

[DarkPira7e]

I'd get a second and third one.

1st car would be DD turbocharged
2nd car would lifted winter beater
3rd car would be stock, to remind me when I drive it just how good stock is, even if I can't see the brake pads.

[fatoni]

I cant imagine doing so.

Yes for sure. Little Car has been good to me. I get very attached to vehicles that serve me well and only sell out of necessity. I’d get other cars but Little Car would be the main one for many reasons. When you go through difficult times and something in your life brought you joy you need to acknowledge that.

So do I lol I like to try different things, but somethings will just stay with me forever. Like I smile every time I see a '98 Accord since that was my first car haha. And yeah this car has brought me lots of joy. Still does and I don't think that's changing anytime soon

[beltax90]

ooh and one of these

[86MLR]

Right at this moment, a Orange 2+0 Lotus Evora GT410 in manual would replace my 86.

My 86, sold to fund mods on the Evora of course.

Whilst the twins are good bang for your buck, in the end they are just cheap sports coupes to be used, abused and replaced.

[jbsali]

If I won $100 Mil, I would probably give the car away to a friend of a family member that would appreciate it.

I'd go out the same day and order a 71' Hakosuka from an importer and pickup a 2020 GTR as a daily driver. Probably put my wife into a 2020 4Runner TRD PRO. Probably steer away from any exotics. I feel like those type of cars get out of hand; always trying to keep up the the jones', maintenance, etc. If I was going to get an exotic, I would likely pickup a Bentley Continental GT Sport in White.

to be fair, ALL cars are that. the price is only dependent on the owners salary.

i realized yesterday sitting in traffic next to a mercedes gt-c amg. the higher up one goes in vehicle pricing, the more integrated everything is, and the harder everything is to change/replace/modify, which is what irritates me the most about high end cars. i want driver interaction, and simplicity. i don't want carplay, satellite-linked hvac, moon roofs, or vibrating seats...
