My 10 cars

OK, here's my 10 car dream garage...including a few that have been missed by others

1. 1997 Mclaren F1 GTR LM (repainted orange)
2. 1985 Porsche 959 (my personal favorite street car of all time, red)
3. 2003 Lotus Esprit V8 Turbo (purple, this would be my good weather daily driver)
4. 2004 Subaru WRX STI (blue, for when it rains, snows, or I feel like driving on gravel)
5. 2003 BMW M5 (Blue, for carting friends around)
6. 2003 Kenworth T2000 (white, need to get the cars to the track, and yes, it's a mighty big garage)
7. 1992 Williams FW15 (blue/yellow/white, last and best of the active suspension cars)
8. 1993 Toyota Eagle (white, last and best of the GTP cars)
9. 1971 Porsche 917/30 (blue/white/yellow, last and best of the Can-Am cars...would probably make some non factory safety mods)
10. Renault Espace F1 (Maroon, the 800 HP minivan, for getting groceries and REALLY messing with people on the street)

And, since the 11th spot has been added, I have room for the 2002 Audi R8 (silver, need to have something to race competitively)

I feel lucky that I've been able to see 7 of the eleven up close, and have gotten rides in 4 of them.

Well, not quite the exact cars on the list, but I've gotten rides in (but not driven):

2001 Kennworth T2000
2001 BMW M5
1994 McLaren F1

To answer the other obvious question, I have seen the Toyota Eagle, Porsche 917/30, and Audi R8 up close (I'll probably see two R8's up close next weekend at Road Atlanta)

Kenworth T2000

Not too sure of the specs, but without a trailer it'll burn rubber in 4th gear (of 12) at 30 MPH. I believe it's speed governed to 118, and will probably get there towing a full trailer. The 2001 I've seen all this in is what we use to get our race cars to the track, and though it may not be the ultimate tow vehicle, it will hold its own.

I think what he meant was... Would anyone like to add a 12th car to their garage... But I think this has gone far enough...
