Okay ONE supercar.
Technically I think you could probably call a Stutz Bearcat a supercar.

It was less than a quarter of the price of European sports cars during it's day. It was famous for being affordable to college students. That is not a supercar.

My tastes change with the winds. I am afraid of what would happen if I ever had enough money to buy a car. By the time I could make a decision, I probably would have saved enough to get something better.

I know, I know... but I have always loved the Willys MB.
If I won the lottery, one of my pet dreams is to build a collection of station wagons with at least one example from every decade.
Teens and 20's: One of the coach-built Model T and Model A wagons.
30's & 40's: woodie wagons (no real brand preference)
50's: Gotta have a '55 Nomad.
60's: A Volvo 122 wagon plus something from Detroit
70's: A Volvo 145 wagon (along with our current 1800ES), Saab 95, and more Detroit hugeness.
80's: More Volvo's... at least one Subaru... a K-car... '86 Taurus... an E30 Touring... whatever else catches my eye.
90's: E34 M5 Touring... more Volvo's (duh...)
00's: My current '03 TDI wagon.
