    What's your 10 Car Dream Garage?

    This is fun! I kept mine loosely based on street cars.

    1961 Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato
    1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 NART Spyder
    1960 Mercedes 300 SL Roadster
    1964 Porsche 904 GTS
    1958 Porsche RSK 718
    1960 Bentley S2 Continental Mulliner Coupe
    1975 Lancia Stratos HF Stradale
    1957 Dodge Power Wagon
    1943 VW Type 166 Schwimmwagen
    1973 GMC 6-wheel Motorhome (interior updated by Marc Newson).
    1978 Aston Martin Lagonda (gotta have a 4-door sedan).

    No 911s cause I'm assuming I get to keep mine!
