What's parked in my Dream Garage

We did this a couple months back. At that point, there were two challenges to fill our garages on a budget with a few constraints to keep it interesting. I suggested a three car garage with $300,000 to spend and another three car garage with "only" $150,000 to spend. This time around, I will suggest two challenges with a different twist.

Dream Garage Challenge #3
You have four parking spaces to fill in your garage. You have $500,000 to spend in total on four cars and no single car can exceed $300,000. At least one car must be a four door sedan. Cars can be new, pre-owned or classic. What are they going to be this time?

My Dream Garage choices:
My daily driver - Audi RS4 - grey over red leather (new, $70,000)
Significant other's car - BMW 335xi (new, $50,000)
Fun weekend car - Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera - orange (new, $225,000)
Other toy - Porsche 911 GT3 RS - lime green (new, $150,000)

Dream Garage Challenge #4
You have four parking spaces to fill in your garage. You have $1,000,000 to spend in total on four cars and no single car can exceed $700,000. At least one car must be a four door sedan. Cars can be new, pre-owned or classic. What are they going to be?

My Dream Garage choices:
My daily driver - Bentley Arnage T Mulliner - titanium over cabernet hides (2007, $200,000)
Significant other's car - Maserati Quattroporte - navy over navy leather (new, $130,000)
Fun weekend car - Ferrari 430 Scuderia - red (new, $275,000)
Other toy - Porsche Carrera GT - titanium over terracotta leather ($400,000)

Weigh in now with your choices! It is tougher than it looks... Comments please.
