One car only....
Just for fun but put some thought into it.
Ok so, your other half has a sensible car, 4 or 5 seats etc, for practical stuff, and you have one for work etc, wether you’re a couple or single, so the dailies are taken care of. You have an unlimited budget BUT you can pick only ONE car for yourself, it’s a pure fun car but remember that you can have only one, so you need to think about fun weekends away etc, or what is sensible where you live etc.
My choice would be the Ferrari California T, a storming engine but usable 2+2 roadster that you can cruise in, plus it’s not a pure sports car as my absolute fav, the 488 spider would lose my licence or end in a tree as it would be too tempting to rag it, you can’t use a 488 to its capability, it’s too good to drive moderately, hence a Cali T, which would be hard enough to be sensible in...
Anyone want to join in? Remember, the idea is it’s not just your favourite car, you have to think of could you realistically use it.

Probably the Lamborghini Huracan Spyder, always had a soft spot for a Lambo, would have picked the Sesto Elemento but that would definitely kill me, worse ways to go though I suppose

If money was no object, and I didn’t have to worry about running costs, then it would have to be a McLaren P1LM.
Ive got a sensible car, I can keep the Z4 for weekends/hoons/winter, and the P1 for special occasions.

Probably teaching granny to suck eggs Rick but just in case, a couple of years ago Mr Mason turned down an offer of £35million for his 250! You’ve got some kenk when you can turn that down...!!!!
Apparently he takes the original engine out to race it, puts a race Ferrari engine in, then puts the original lump back in after the weekend for show purposes, no matter how long it is between outings. He’s fairly dedicated to the cause....
