I should be working right now, but instead I've been browsing cars all morning....so I figure I should waste some more time.

Scenario: You magically have a 5 car garage, an extremely understanding spouse, and unlimited budget. What would you fill it with? These are the only cars you are allowed to have for the whole year.

Here's mine.

Porsche 911 - up to '89.
Obvious dream car is obvious, but this is the marquee that made me love cars. Lots of great years out there, but there's something special about those earlier generations.

Bmw CS 3.0
Remember when BMW's weren't being driven around by cocky aholes? Neither can I, but man were they ever beautiful. I'd also take anything up till the mid 90s.

Ferrari 308
I love 70's Italian cars, and and every garage needs an italian sex machine at some point. There are about 10 cars I could put here instead of this (Espada, early Esprit, Mangusta) but this is one I remember most fondly from my childhood, so it wins. Plus my real name is Tom. This car was driven by a Tom. What more do you need to justify the last truly beautiful Ferrari ever made?

Porsche 928
I'm going to need something for those times when I just want to cruise the streets for cocaine. The Shark is one car I wouldn't mind snorting up nose. Was also drive by a Tom so that can't hurt.

Toyota Landcruiser FJ40
And finally, I'll need a simple and reliable vehicle when the others break down. That pickup in the back would also be a good choice.

Can you tell I'm a child of the 80s? I could easily add about 10 cars to this list, but there's something good about having to edit it down.

Your turn.
