3 cars for your perfect garage

It seems many people aren't following the rules for their 3 cars in this thread:

http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1169288

So, I thought I'd start a similar thread with some tweaked rules. You still have $300k for a max of 3 cars, however cars may be of any vintage and there is no minimum cost. For me, I find this far more difficult as there are many older cars I like. Here are a few combos I could go with:

Aston Martin Vantage V12 6MT
BMW 3.0 CSL
Audi RS4

Ferrari 550 Maranello
Alfa Romeo GTV (late '60s early '70s model)
BMW E39 M5

Any air cooled 911 coupe
BMW 1M
Land Rover Defender 90

um....... toss up between an NSX, S2000, or 300ZX TT, or if I must get something to haul more people around, maybe an M5 or Tesla S.

Damn this is hard, there's so many things to choose from.

Still leave me with 20M for upgrades

My current F80 M3 as a daily
New ZO6 for the weekends
New Tesla P85D or the Tesla X for groceries and random outings.

Should be right around $300k depending on options.

Lamborghini Diablo 5.7 1994 £125,000
Audi RS6 £75,000
Porsche 964 £30,000

Couldn't be arsed to do the dollar conversion so I went with £300,000.

But this gives me £230,000 with £70,000 left over to rebuild the 964 and have it RWB'd

E type jag, restored
2016 viper acr
X5m tow rig and daily

Too hard to choose. Honestly if I had to spend 300K on vehicles I would buy multiple lesser cars like c6 z06, z4m coupe, e39 m5, diesel pickup, sport bike, open wheel like formula ford, ..

I'd want an off roader, a sports car, and a road trip car. Figure a $100k Wrangler, a $100k C7 Corvette, and an A7.

I might be tempted to get a less extreme Wrangler and make up the difference with a commuting appliance though.

That Volvo reminds me of the 240 sedan my parents had when I was a kid. It was also green.
