I drive a Tahoe and love it. I could use a Suburban for my towing needs though.(slightly longer wheelbase would help)

I'd also love to have either a Porsche 911 turbo or my friend's 94 Vette w/Vortex supercharger.(extremely fast, feeds on Vipers)
Either of those two. Not for daily driving, but a second car.

I really like my Concorde, I'd prefer to have gotten the LHS but at the time it was out my price range. If money was no object, Jaguar XJ12. No question.

But you've gotta have a second car. :) And next spring I plan on selling the Saturn and finally getting one of those 93 or 94 Mazda RX7 I've been drooling over for years. :p

i'd probably want to drive the coupe, i like handling most. I guess that would kinda suck if you needed to move a lot of things, but thats what renting is for.

in addition to my current cars (which I absolutely love),

A wagon to haul stuff (SUVs suck): Audi RS4 ultimately, Audi S4 Avant, BMW 3 series wagon, and lastly Audi A4 1.8t wagon. Maybe when I have kids (and when I have the money)

A bavarian 2 seater, i.e: the M Coupe. This is going to be my daily driver, when I'm making enough money / year.

A classic vintage: Ferrari Dino, Lancia Stratos, or Ferrari 288 GTO (308 sucks :p). Finally, when I have excess amount of money in my bank account.

It depends on the situation. When I need room for five I would go with the BMW M5, lots of power and comfort at the same time. However, I have to have my real two seater sports car too:) In that area I would have to go with the 911 Carrera 4 (or the turbo from '97)...only question is do I want a convertable or not? And of course one needs a car for towing/hauling too! The GMC Sierra HD with the 6.6L V8 Turbo Diesel sounds good to me. 22,000lbs of towing sounds reasonable.
