An Aston Martin DB9, and an Aston Martin V12 Vanquish... and an M5, and a Viper ACR. That's my 3/4 million in cars... heh.

for real if I won a lot of money the first thing I'd do is set some aside to send the younger kid to college and the older one to grad school. and the second thing I'd do is buy them cars, and the third thing I'd do is send my husband's car off to get restored to perfection.

and the 4th thing I'd do is seriously remodel/partialy refurnish my house and add porch/sunroom where the deck is.. that'd be the first thing I'd do for ME. if porch/sunroom could be considered a toy, then.. I guess that'd be the first thing to qualify.

but.. if it really has to be a toy..

I don't guess a cleaning lady can count either.

ok.. if it has to be a "thing".. then.. one of those big tv's that hang on the wall, I guess. that'd be kind of fun. actually.. maybe 2 of 'em. :)

I'd buy a new car, first of all. Doesn't even have to be super-nice or a supercar or anything like that. I'd get something nice but right now, I want something that runs that I can trust. After that, I'd get a place of my own and home theater goodies.

That is all.

Hahaha!

Honestly, I'd just buy a car and a new computer. Then I'd save the rest for after graduation (college). :)

First toy would definitely be a car at this point, mainly because my dad is set on me not driving until I'm out of high school or something. But if all was normal in my family, then it'd definitely be a computer. I know I know, I'm a nerd. But isn't pretty much everyone who posts on ATOT?

One good night on the town. Fancy meal, suite in a fancy hotel, and 2 high class escorts. I may be hit by a car or something the next day, so might as well cover the bases.

Black BMW M3 and an ass-hauling dual-cpu rig with all the trimmings - newest video card, scsi hard drives, etc. And a big bag of skunky dank.

I'm surprised it took so long for someone to say two chicks....

I'd buy a house on a beach somewhere, with a movie room and an indoor basketball court.....and it would have an indoor playground for the kids, like they have at some McDonalds or Chuck E Cheese, and a car for myself and one for my wife...and the nicest home theater setup money could buy!
