It’s a difficult one really. Because it’s changes all the bloody time!

Daily Driver - Civic Type R

Summer enjoyment - Morgan Roadster (I know the image is of a 2017 but you can get them up to 2020 to keep within the 2-3 year old rule)

Toy - Noble M600

If the Noble isn’t allowed because of no dream cars then with the extra cash I would upgrade the Daily to Taycan or something and get an Exige 430 Cup.
Ohhh that Morgan roadster is pretty special!
 
Thanks, nearly bought an E63 wagon a month ago to replace my BMW 330d Xdrive touring (budget wouldn't stretch to the E63S as they are about £8k more than the non S) but decided to wait and see what happens when the Emira arrives as if that doesn't hit the sweet spot we need the extra pennies for the Vantage.
I forget who but one of my fav reviewers went on and on about the 63 wagon. I’ve wanted one since. I’ll try to find it
lol go to 9:45

This was actually so tough for me to narrow down, but yet difficult to come up with 3 things without going over (which I probably did all said and done).

I am fortunate to have my perfect 3-car garage - for now.

Ferrari F430 Spyder Manual. (2006)
Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Edition 507 (2015)
Bentley Continental GTC (2007)

Actually, comes in under $300K budget.
All 3 cars in this pic and two of the others below.

... and of course, this baby to come in a few weeks.

The Merc is up for sale and I might have to get a cheap runaround, maybe even an EV.
My current 3 cars are all over 500HP. The Emira will be the little baby car...
 
My perfect 3-car garage is whatever 3 cars are in my garage at the time.

(Don't be fooled by the wide angle photo- my garage is a crazy-tiny 20x28.)

I'm an old guy, and these days I try to keep one very nice car (currently a 2005 NSX that replaced a 2006 Ford GT), and a few inexpensive but still fun cars.

Many times I'll buy a car, keep it 3 or 4 years, have some fun with it, and then sell it, and repeat the process. Recent cars that have come and gone have been 2005 Mini Cooper S and E36 M3 convertible (both sold on BaT charity auctions this year). Currently I have a 30k mile Mazdaspeed Miata (my 5th Miata, and probably a keeper, NB's are my favorite), and a '67 bug sunroof with 1915cc motor, 4 wheel discs, etc.

Assuming the Emira ever comes (I didn't make the FE cut), it will replace the NSX (which is so nice I'm afraid to drive it).

I have a GR Corolla coming next month, not sure if that will replace my Prius wagon DD, or I guess it might even replace the bug.

Well done! All for under $300k? Can you help me with negotiating prices?
 
Ok will take a selection of my current garage:

1. New Defender - wafts, super comfy, yet quite some personality. With a rooftent (we have)

2. Yaris GR - soooooooo goooooood! For that money, wow. Does everything so well. Great when it snows.

3. Either a 992 or a (used) Donkervoort GTO RS....not decided yet.

Should make to approx 300k.
