I would cheat and research the most expensive, easiest to sell car and then sell it.

However, to pick a perfect daily driver it's hard to go with a Dinan M5.

Debaser, it's a Dodge Tomahawk. Four, independently suspended wheels and the (600bhp?) V10 engine from a viper. I saw a film of one wobbling around in a warehouse, and can't wait for someone to find the courage to go outside with it.

If I might be controversial for a moment, the Koenigsegg is a little porky and does in no way smoke the F1. The car has been out for a while now, and still no independently-verified top speed figure exists to my knowledge.
To hit its own improbable, estimated top speed, the Veyron will require you first to pull over, phone Bugatti, and wait. A Bugattiman will arrive with four new wheels and tyres and discreetly fit them while you start psyching yourself up.

F1, please

I'll second the GT40 vote, though I would prefer one of the classic ones from Le Mans in the Gulf paint scheme. I get wood just thinking about that car.

As for me, I'll take a 1970 Dodge Coronet R/T Hemi. If I can't get one of the 13 that were made with the Hemi, I'll take a '67 GTO convertible with tripower engine. My uncle has one of those.

Well I'd thought you'd lost your mind but then I noticed the pinstripe package. If that has a similiar effect to Rs on a Honda it'd just about double you horsepower.

The motorcycle above is a prototype Dodge Tomahawk! It sports the Viper v-10 engine and is supposed to go 300+ MPH but they haven't found anybody that will test it.
It is one of the most beautifully designed machines I have ever seen.

What's a Ford GT40? You mean the GT? :P

Anyways, those who like the Enzo and 959, a brake job for the Enzo is a nice 57k, while ONE wheel for the 959 is 20k.

That being said, Koenigsegg hands down, with the S7 second.

No, its a GT-40, named for its 40 inch height.

Good luck finding a real one, only the Mk.III is road legal, and they made just 7 of them. If you see one on the road, you can be 99.9% sure its a replica (see a nice example here: http://www.gt40.co.nz ).

That said, I'd love to have one, but I'd be afraid to drive it. As far as a replica..its not worth it for such an uncomfortable car, maybe as a second car, but I wouldnt drive it much.

If I had to pick a car I'd actually drive, I'd pick the BMW M1. Heres some pics a friend of mine took of one while we were at Laguna Seca a few weekends ago:

Would we have to keep the car?
If not: Bugatti Veyron, then sell it, get a vette, 5-series BMW, and a Mercedes Sl-500

If we kept it: Ferrari Enzo.

Realistically, if price were no object, why would anyone settle for less? Why isn't everyone saying the same thing as 0001? Don't you want to drive an airplane wing? I sure as hell wouldn't mind driving a car that is so fast that it'd scare the shit out of me just to oh-so-gently tap the gas pedal.
