Mom and dad have always wanted a Mercedes SUV, they're old and get first crack at a new dream car. Then RUF or maybe a lower mileage clone of my current M3.

Sell the GT3 and use the funds for a new GT3RS?

Realistically, I would probably put the money to better use, but if I was 'forced' to buy a vehicle (poor me, having an extra $1M lying around and having to consider some exotics lol), probably some kinda compact snowmaggedon AWD.

1991 Hyundai Excel. Fully equipped, CD changer w/the cell.

Then I would buy/import a manual e38 728i and turbo it.

Same here. I can't imagine driving a car even close to a million and the only car I'd be willing to pay a fortune for (Gullwing SL) is more than a million in many cases.

I'd definitely do a Conti Coupe or Cab or probably an SLS.

Was fortunate enough to spend time with an SLS. Gives me a chance to post my picture

OP meant - you have to spend it on 1 car….

Being a man of simple pleasures, I'd probably go with a Mclaren P1 - on sale of course…And not the GTR.

"Money shift" and "$1M supercar" is something you don't want in the same sentence.

Would pay off some bills if I had any.

I'd probably invest it.

I am getting close to retirement but I think what I’d do would be buy a garage that allows me to store more cars and then buy something like an AMG GT, then put the rest into my retirement savings.

I'd legit not spend a penny of a $1m windfall on cars at this point in my life, but since that's a boring answer…

Best car in that range is the 765LT. I miiiight be able to buy one at current ADM pricing with that money net of taxes.

She offered you rides. She sent you the signal she would say "yes", if you asked her out.
