First, I'd take my beautiful wife to Europe, buy a Bentley Arnage T, drive the whole French Riviera, end up at Monte Carlo and stay at the most plush, extravagant hotel for a week.
Then, come back, buy a garage with a house somewhere beautiful. It'll be state-of-the-art with an in-ground pneumatic lift, epoxied floors, a full set of Facom tools, a huge air compressor with tools and high-powered grid lighting. Attached to the garage will be the marble-floored, glass-walled, climate controlled "car house" filled with the cars I've dreamed of...Bugatti Veyron, Aston Martin Vanquish, Audi RS6 Avant, Jaguar XKR, etc.
Then, completely restore my FC to better than original condition with every, single bolt cleaned and every component rebuilt and restored. It'll also get the most lustrous stock-colored paint job imaginable and it'd get a special elevated platform in the "car house".
Then, buy a house in the Florida Keys that's right on the water where I'll have some monstrous off-shore racing boat powered by two V-12s.
That's a pretty good dream...don't ya think?

I'd give alot of it away. Probably to wildlife conservation.
Rest I would pay off stuff with.
I'd buy a small bar, and a big *** garage.
Have lots of parties.
Send lots of care packages to deployed U.S. Troops, because rich people are too busy buying **** for themselves to take the time to remember where their ******* freedom comes from.
Buy that girl I like a nice bottle of wine and throw a proposition her way... (No need to show off the cash to a woman... Not yet anyway.)
But, in all reality... I'll never win. I bought my X 3 tickets. I bought myself 3. I won $0. She won like 4K. We don't talk anymore.

I'd buy a very large tract of land....500acres. Have a big house in the middle, it would have cool stuff like a large bar and pools. Have a large garage that would be able to hold all my cars, very exotic cars. A big lake dug somewhere on my land so I could sit in a little row boat and fish. I'd have a badass kart track build, the kind of go karts that do 100 mph. And of course I'd have a race track for a drive way to haul *** on when I come and go. I'd never work again.
yea that just about sums it up make sure it have a bunch of kick *** RXs awd rally FC maybe ?? everything top of the line fd and a bunch of other stufff all my dream cars! Mclaren F1 to play with hehe!
a ferrari 575M maranello for my daily driver. and i think that would be about it. oh yea and have the tunels to every where in the place so i could drive the karts to my lake and race track and stuff!

I'd take ten percent of it, and give to different charities, homless people, churches, or whatever cause I agreed with. Then, I would give everyone in the shop where I work a few grand. Next, I would buy a few special people cars and houses. and let some people start the businesses they've always wanted to. I would buy some tools, and fix my car up to tip-top condition. Then I'd focus on school, and start my own practice. Then I'd invent a transporter machine for trips to Barrie.
