Default What is your international dream garage?

I know we have had threads like this before, but let's put a unique twist on it. You have a unlimited amount of money to spend on five cars, but one has to be from japan, one from america, one from, germany, one from Italy, and one from england, or any other country not mentioned. Only other rules is that one of the cars needs to carry four people, and has to be for sale brand new in the U.S.
My choices.

England- Aston Martin DBS coupe






Italy- Lamborghini Gallardo LP560


Germany- Porsche Cayman S


America- Cadillac CTS-V


Japan- Lexus IS-F


(Yeah I know the cadillac photo came out really big, did not pick ZR1 or GT-R, because I have the Gallardo and DBS already, very interested to see what everyone's choices are.)
