Ferrari F430 F1 Coupe in Red with the tan interior and carbon-ceramic brake discs option. Then I'd get it its only mod it would ever receive, exhaust modification to make that beautiful 8500rpm 4.3litre V8 even louder.

And then I'd just drive, and drive, and drive, and drive... and, well, drive.

Who could refuse this?

What I would get would depend entirely on how much Lotto I won! If it was closer to "only" $1m, I'd get a new RS4 and that would do me. If it was $5m, I'd probably get the RS4 anyway, and either a V8 Vantage or a Murcielago to go with it. If it was $10m, I'd probably still get the same as for $5m but I might chuck in an F430 and a top shelf Range Rover (for my dirt road needs!) and an EVO9 for paddock bashing

More than $10m, say $20m, and I'd be straight on the phone to Bugatti.

Speaking of which, Powerball is $22m tomorrow night... hmm... !

I don't know I would have enough money to buy all the cars I want if I won the lotto in Australia. I would need the $70,000,000 lotto jackpot in America.

A heap of early Fords such as 32-34 3 window coupes,
A turn of the century steam powered car (just so I can say I have one)
28 roadster,
28 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost,
Phase 1, 2 and 3 HO'S
65 Fatsback Mustang
2005 Roush GT Mustang
Lemans GT40
XR, XT, XW, XY, XA, XB, EB, EL, BA, BF GT and coupe versions as well.
XC Cobra,
RPO 83
Bently Continetal GT,
Maybach Coupe
Mercedes Benz Bi Turbo
I will stop here.

Plus tack on Lambo's, Ferrari's, Porsche's and a Lotus or 2.

I LOVE those little Elfins. No better place for the Gen III V8.


I'd probably get myself a WRX STi or Evo 9 for rally bashing. Although I do prefer a RWD.

But I would definately get a Mazda RX5 - probably chuck in a series 6 motor and trans.

And I'd probably turn the 1984 Honda Civic shuttle into a sleeper. Chuck in a CRX motor, add a turbo - leave the paint job. Surprise a few people.
