I'd buy a 991 GT3RS and hire Sabine Schmidt to drive me around in it

$1.4 billion(or whatever its up to now) buys a lot of car fun!
buy a few museum-grade 6GT2 and 6GT3's, some factory racers (and use them) 956/962's, 917's, etc.. lots of other fun/cool stuff from the other brands Alfa's to Volvo's...
Buy a bunch of Cup cars for me and the buddies(and any fellow RL'ers) to bang around on my personal track
buy some 6TT's/Carrera's and rally-build them and tour the world...
and of course, continue to develop and enjoy my favourite/life-long(try and pry it out of my cold, dead hands, lol) street car, my 6GT2

Finish touching up my still new-to-me 2001 996 (needs tires, wheel recondition, etc.) and give it to my #2 son because he's thinking he can only get a 944 at this point in his life. Buy a Macan S for DD purposes, and then buy some version of the new turbo 911. As another poster mentioned above, I'd also need to build a climate-controlled new garage for them. With a full-height lift.

No one has mentioned the 959, so I will. Buy a 918 with the "My other car is a Porsche 959" sticker.

I know I'll get grief for this, but I do appreciate the car for its place in history, just wouldn’t want to have one myself.

I would keep it as I would then have enough space to store everything inside. Right now my wife's daily driver is looking for shelter.

Yep, not a lot of creativity on the 996 forum

Oh, and I would totally do all of the above.

Shouldn't this be where do you keep your 1.5 billion in your 996 thread... Anyway if I was a US citizen & won I might blow half of it and have a factory roof fitted by a main dealer to replace my old one that should just about cover it & as for the rest may be not the blow KC just stick with the hookers off to wikipedia now to see what hookers and blow is!

I would have no need for a car period on my private island. When off Isla de Gonzo, I would be chauffeured in one of my Maybachs.
