If this doesn't include maintenance and getting cars for family/friends, and the cash is meant to be only spent on cars, then I would get:

Ferrari F430 Spyder-Black with Red Interior, F1, Carbon-Ceramics, BBS CH's, etc.
Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG-Black with Terracotta-ish interior, HRE rims, etc.
Porsche Cayenne Turbo-Black with Terracotta interior
Porsche CGT-Black on Black
Another TSX, except this one would be modded like crazy. Custom F22C1 drop, etc.

or

996 GT3 RS
Murcielago (poser)
BMW E30 M3
Ferrari 550 Maranello
Supra TT MKIV

Hmm...

997 GT3 RS
Mercedes E63 AMG
Audi RS4 Avant
Radical SR8
Old style Mini with the motorcycle engine conversion
Datsun 510 fully race prepped with a SR20DET
Corvette C6 Z06
Superformance GT40 or Shelby Cobra replica
Ferrari 430 or maybe 550 or maybe 599 (depending on how much I had left)
Some type of old muscle car set up pro touring style with modern tech
Some sort of tow vehicle (truck or SUV, nothing fancy)

Leave some money left over for mods, wheels, etc. Its hard to answer these kinds of questions because my answer would probably change each time LOL
