If you had 90 Million Dollars; What would you do?

Post by Fto_Jason »

The subject pretty much sums it up hey.. I just got thinking about a bit of everything and got real curious.

Ill start it off..

First things first, My fto would be getting the make over she deserves hehe im sure that pretty much our number one thing to do on everyones list... Then id be buying another fto for a runaround car while im getting my current fixed and beautiful. Then id be looking for my own property out in woop woop wonderland for a property.. Ofcourse build a track on it... And ofcourse give out the payments most of us could dream of.. Aka buy my parents their dream house.. set them up for life and make sure its better than they could ever dream of :P give out some money to my closest family members and friends...

NEXT THING buy a huge shed in the middle of brissie somewhere and furbish it with the best of the best mechanics gear around.. anything i need and want... get a few of you blokes in with me and start up a shop.. Building cars.. Helping out some boys and girls around the place to get their ride up ... live the dream.. :P

Your turn!

90 million?
2 million to each my family members, and 500,000 to some of my closer friends.

Buy a nice house in Queensland, then buy a Dodge Viper from every year, getting a 2002 one converted to RHD.
Would also probably spend 5 million on other cars.

And the amount of technology that would go into my house would be amazing ;)

I'd be racing full time in Europe, America & of course Aus.

Le Mans 24hr / Nurburg 24hr / Bathurst 12hr / Sebring 12hr / Daytona 24hr(?)... / Spa 24hr

Mainly GT cars, Lambo's / Ferrari's / Corvette's / Mosler / Saleen ...

I'd buy a villa on Mulsanne and the orchid at Bathurst ... And maybe a few beachfronts for a bit of downtime ;)

And I'd build up the FTO to be a class winner then donate it to the forum 8)

Oh haha gotta agree with the racingg for SURE.. Yeh 90 million.. Ever seen that movie 'paycheck'? Lol well thats where i got the number from :P

Cars that i was thinking of getting.

1. Run around fto (i was actually thinking of Sam's Fto) >:D Until i get mine all finished then id drive that ofcourse!
2. Cleanest GTO around
3. WRX STI atleast a 2006 model or so
4. Now that you've mentioned the Viper.. OMG I would LOVE a viper haha
5. 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 (Full black with the white racing stripes down the midd)
6. Was thinking a porsche 911 Carrera GT model, Hard body all over


That way ive got a car for each weekday plus my FTO for weekends.. Although i must admit, i think the viper would slowly start to take up the weekends..

90 million huh?

I tell you what, I would never work a day again in my life.......

Definitly buy my own island, install race track, build a lake for wakeboarding. massive house, helicopter. 1 million to each family member and the rest in the bank to live off the interest.

So many complicated things!

I'd buy a tropical island equipped with a race track, a Ferrari, a brewery & a coca plantation, then live there.
