German Car Forum

With the NAIAS motorshow on the helm, and having not see a thread as such for a long while, I thought this would a great time to revive the age-old question of the ten-car dream garage.

So, how about it folks? Evidently, there have been a lot of vehicle releases as of late. But the question remains, do any of them make it onto your list?

The only restriction being that the cars must be actual road cars - in otherwords, no concepts, etc. Other than that, feel free dream away.

I'll answer a little later today when I have some free time.

1. BMW M3


2. BMW M6 Convertible

4. Nissan Skyline


5. Lamborghini Murcielago


6. RR Phantom

The CL is a huge hit in this one. Our garages have so much class

Right you are Warot. The GT-R also seems to be one of those vehicles that everybody wants.
I must admit to feeling a degree of guilt for leaving it out of mine.

I feel bad for leaving out the Lamborghini Murci LP640 and all the Ferraris. Whoopsie.

So, here is my top ten list (the photos show the cars with the colour, I would choose):

1. Bentley Arnage T




2. BMW Alpina B6S Convertible




3. Jaguar XJ8 (3.5 or 4.2) / maybe the XJR




4. Porsche Carrera GT




5. Mercedes E 420 CDI




6. Ranger Rover TDV8




7. Saab 9-5 2.3 T Aero (2005)




8. BMW Alpina B3 BiTurbo




9. BMW 745d




10. Mercedes G 55 AMG (facelifted version, couldn't find a nice photo - but it should have this rims)

That's a very nice post, ree... I respect your love for different marques...

Oh and btw:



This is one of the best pics i've ever seen of E class and therefore for both pic and post - KARMA!

Very nice choice. I might have to drop one car off my list for the Saab 9-5 Aero. Love the version before the current facelift.

Well, let me think a bit...

Here are my absolute favourites.



Mercedes-Benz 540K Spezial Roadster (1936-1939)





Bentley Continental S1, Fastback by Mulliner (1955-1959)








Rolls-Royce Phantom V (1959-1968)










Porsche 911 2.7RS (1972-1973)




Maserati Ghibli (1966-1973)



Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman (W100, 1964-1981)





Mercedes-Benz 500SEC (C126, 1981-1992)






Mercedes-Benz SL 600 (R230, 2001-)




Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG (W463, 1979-)



Ferrari 250 GTO (1962)





Like you see I have an obvious old-car bias...Modern cars appeal much less to me... I am the first surprised to see that the SL is the only modern car that manages into my top ten...
Also, supercars are not really my thing.
And my dream garage is very, very expensive!

The 540K Spezial Roadster is my absolute Number One. This is THE car, an masterpiece with no equal. For me the most beautiful car ever, and by far.

You'll have a problem in the morning, CC: all the keys will look the same, only two types of key for the 8 cars, plus the Rolls...

I'll just close my eyes, pick a key, walk out and press the botton and what ever opens is the car i'll drive for the day. If I had all of those cars I honestly wouldn't complain

That's smart. I can be long, choosing between your 10 ever-favourite cars...

For me it would be so long that once I've chosen it's the end of the day anfd instead of going to work I do a trip for fun...
So I would not go to work any more, need to sell one car because the money does not come alone in the pocket, and the tíme I've chosen the one to sell I have no house and no wife and no job any more...

HAHA - the best of both worlds
