Your 'reasonable' dream car garage?

Your 'reasonable' dream car garage?
Its pretty easy to pick all the supercars if you have an unlimited budget but lets try something different.
You won a contest: All of your expenses (except car related) will be paid for for the rest of your life (even kid(s) college) and you will get 3 million for retirement. Based on your current earnings, what cars would you buy to fill your garage over the next 3 years?
2001 996TT (current, doesnt count)
2004 E46 M3 (18k)
1995 Mazda RX-7 (to rebuild, assume 20k total)
1991 Nissan Skyline GTR (17k to purchase, 3k to clean up)
1971 Datsun 510 (to rebuild, assume 15k total)
2009 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Vert (65k)
1997 Toyota Land Cruiser (10k)
The rest goes to gas, maintenance, upgrades, tires, and track time.

I don't think, I need that many in my stable. max 3 cars be fine for me.
1. what i own now but make it faster - weekend warrior, (no more all season car) which probably i still have to go through one or two years. until i save up for another car. Thinking about Subaru STi -2006/07.
2. B7 Audi RS4 - they come with super high millage,- fun all season, grocery shopping wife wont complain how small the car is (fix things that needs to be done)
3. an SUV or a nice truck.
I'm still thinking about buying 95 240sx and do LS1 swap.
LIFT LIFT and LIFT - so i can tear my car apart when needed.

Gotta have at least 3 cars. Each of which excel at their specializations. My (current) stable close.
Sports car: 911 turbo (996 turbo)
Efficient runabout: Tesla Model S (Rav4 EV)
Vacation car: Land Cruiser (LX470)
Those would be the anchors. Beyond that:
Supra Turbo
Ferrari F40
Porsche Panamera Turbo S
Corvette Z06
Bentley Mulsanne
40' Class A RV
Another modified land cruiser for overlanding
28' Airstream

I currently have 5 now somehow....and looking at them in totality it is a reasonable stable
996tt obviously - anytime car
e30 m3 stock s14 - hold onto / car show car
e30 m3 S54 swap - track/random show car
e38 740il - beater no worry about mileage car
1964 C10 - love these trucks unfortunately don't drive as much as I would like
Debating getting rid of one at this point most likely the truck since it isn't being driven

Most is reasonable there. GT3 is a bit pricey now, but im sure will fall.
