Question A Multi-Brand Garage- Poll

Guys, we have a lot of debate here on which cars complement each other. And while certainly we are all really biased towards the GT cars from Zuffenhausen, There are a lot of other complementary cars.

So, on a Sunday...I was pondering- if you had to have 5 cars, from 5 different brands...which ones and what purposes would you have to fill? This is not a "money no object" show off thread, so don't say you want a Jesko, a Valkyrie, Bugatti, GT3 Touring and a Ferrari Formula 1 car. That's not what I am asking.

So- here are the possible choices. Really, I am trying to figure out how much we all have in common. For instance, I really think that the Raptor is the best SUV/Inclement weather type vehicle made, dollar for dollar. So that's in my squad.

How does Porsche fit in your garage and how would you evolve your collection or lifestyle if you had to have variety?

Categories to consider:

Inclement Weather/ Tow Vehicle/ Family Vehicle: Range Rover, F-series, Chevy, Dodge, Cayenne, Macan, G-series MB, X5-X7 BMW, q8, etc

Significant other friendly Datenight or Roadtrip vehicle: 911 variant, Ferrari, Maserati, Aston, M car, etc

Hooligan/Track/Canyon vehicle: GT3, GT2, 458 speciale, Performante, 675LT, 600LT, Aventador variant, 488, boxster spyder, GT4 Clubsport, GT3 cup, 570 GT4, Viper etc

Hypercar: which brand would you feel best about consolidating a collection and owning- McLaren, Bugatti, Koenigsegg, 918, CGT, Enzo, LaF, etc (can include future cars)

Vintage Vehicle: 356, 912, 911, Jaguar e type, ferrari older than 1993, Maserati, Aston Martin, Stingray, Muscle Car/Hot Rods, etc

Sedan: Jaguar, Tesla, Panamera Variant, Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Lexus

City Vehicle: small car that's easy to park and you don't care if it gets banged up, or an ALL ELECTRIC VEHICLE (this is important for San Francisco, New York, London, etc)


YOU CAN ONLY PICK ONE PORSCHE SLOT!

It's hard to say which cars to eliminate when you are forced into categories, but your Challenge Stradale could be the track car, or the date night car, etc.
250SWB Spider is an ok vintage car !!!
