So you just won the jackpot. Hundreds of millions of dollars are now yours.
The catch: You can buy one car. Any car... But just one.
What would you buy?

Need more info. Do I get to keep the cars I already have? Do I have to buy a car? Does it have to be a new car? How long before I'm allowed to replace it?_________________ 一期一会

Interesting story on the Munstermobile....
Apparently Fred Gwynne (Herman) was well known as a fun-loving practical joker. On at least one occasion he drove the Munstermobile, with the full cast in makeup, out the studio gates and down Hollywood Blvd, which caused quite a traffic jam as people stopped to see what was going on.
The studio execs were not impressed, but I got to imagine the publicity was worth it.
