    I'm a Porsche fan, so a nice convertable Porsche or two... I'm a very big fan of the late 70's early 80's classic 911, so probably one of those with a little work and maybe a nice new one for fun too.

    For the family car, it's probably still going to be the same as is on the cards right now with a Multivan, albeit a fully decked out one Mind you I would also have to get the wife a convertable new beetle in Wiskas purple

    I have been mulling over this question for a few years now, and my choices don't vary too much...

    2009 Porsche 911 GT3 RS
    Porsche 933 911 GT2 RS
    2004 Audi RS6
    VW Corrado VR6

    Then whatever tickles my fancy over time... Its only money!!

    Also, I would hire Walter Rohle for a few days of driver training... I think I would need it for the GT2!!

    that golf is fuggin AWESOME.

    me, i'm a pretty simple guy, and whilst i used to oooh and aaah at lamborghini's just like everyone else when i was a kid, supercars no longer really hold their appeal for me. something like this:

    >Honda Jazz 1.5L hack car [wont bother waiting for it to get to operating temp before i start thrashing it]
    >Land Rover Discovery 4, all options, tdi, Overfinch wheels, lowered, tasteful quality sound, dvd screens
    >Land Rover Defender, tdi, jacked up with big f*** off 4wd tyres for lake eildon
    >Skoda Superb, VIP look
    >Mk1 cabby like velly's red one
    >My car comes off the road, gets a pearlescent burgundy paint job, leather recaros, lightened flywheel, uprated clutch, TBE, H&R front sway, Coilovers [bilstein or koni], all bushes, custom CAI setup, 16'' matte black tenzo's, garrett gt1749vb + pd150 pipework and manifold, uprated SMIC, LSD, mafless/egr-less tune, HUD

    cant really think of any others that i'd actually BUY with the $20m.

    actually, i'd also get one of these [with different wheels], the daihatsu tanto:



    and yes, stephy, that mk1 is sweeeeeeet. OEM plus!

    Jensen Interceptor
    Every Lexus model made (which really isn't that many)
    GT40 Replica in gulf colours
    a 911 of some sort
    an R34 GTR with over 700hp
    the worlds best mk3 VR6T, built using a poll here at VWW.
    sky blue gallardo convertible (manual not e-gear)
    bentley arnage from 2002 (already depreciated $500k)
    a 1974 230.6 Mercedes on bags
    honda nsx, honda s2000

    I would also buy a workshop, like a proper business and work there everyday making people happy to get their car worked on, it would make money and be a great place to hang out. I would clean your wheels with soapy water and dry them before i put the tyre shine on. Oh and i'd remember your birthday and help you get your car looking good to sell if you planned on upgrading. Plus I would answer the phone when you rang, and text you when your car was ready. I'd have a couple of computers with internet on them in the reception area, it would only cost me about $1000 but i'm sure you'd prefer it over the 4x4 magazines on the coffee table at most places. Most of all I'd just talk to you about your car, what u like about it, what u don't, what you need, like etc etc.

    You'd be surprised how little you can get for $20 million these days. For instance, the Lexus LFA ($420,000USD) would go for a shave under $500,000 AUD as of 2010.05.31 21:14:44 UTC. I'd say you're better off investing in housing. Unfortunately, vehicle ownership is always a depreciating asset unless the car is a collectable item. But since this is a theoretical situation, the above is negated.

    Zenvo ST1 for track days
    Audi S8 for carting the family around
    Audi A4 3.0 TDI for a daily
    Audi Q5 3.0 TDI for towing

    Invest the rest.
