I think having one classic car in any collection is a must.
My brother has five Alfa's now, he likes them a lot.

My garage "tools" goal is to build my own bespoke workbench down one full side of the garage.
Much more modest, but its good to have goals.
Mind you I keep looking at barns finds (bikes) on ebay.

Garage goal for me this year is a 3 bay shed, 12 meters deep with a hoist.

If I were you, I'd definitely float the Ferrari 365 gtb/4 to the top of my list. I first saw one when Miami Vice was a new show on television. As a poor teenager from the wrong side of the tracks I had no idea that the car in the TV show wasn't a real Ferrari at the time but I fell in love with that styling. Later on I would read and learn more about them. It has seriously got to be one of the most beautiful sports car designs ever made, or at least they always look spectacular in pictures from every angle. Someone once upon a time brought one of the C3-based replicas out to one of our local Corvette club events, but I've still never had an opportunity to see a real 365gtb in person. If I ever had a chance to own one, I would not pass it up as it would fulfill a dream from my youth.

I actually owned a Ferrari Daytona a few years ago https://karenable.com/drivers-seat-f...gtb-4-daytona/ . It was a good, but not great car which is why we parted company. Agree they look spectacular but you need to have the right type of roads to enjoy it on.
