I'd probably buy an F-14, an F-18 and an airfield and take people up for flights
in them, with the occassional aerobatic routine thrown in too.

Where to start......
A very nice amount for an early retirment i'd probably stop work at 17 as soon as i got out of school....
Buy a Tempest mk. 5 series 2 (i just hate the chin radiator) and contract hawker to give me 50 sets of every part on the aircraft so if i break someting it is fixible.
then buy a house say 3 stories with all the trimmings movie theater etc. and then go to a very fancy strip joint......8)

Even being a MOPAR fan (GO MOPAR), I'd have the '67 anyday...or ANY Mustang up 1970, the last year of good looking Mustangs!

I have to disagree; 1970 was the last year of good looking Mustangs until 2006. This new breed of Mustangs look mean, and sounder meaner - I love 'em.

If it was a car, I would have to go with the 1957 Chevy Bel Air. What a sweet machine.

And for airplanes, one DC-3 and one AT-6

I'd still prefer the '67 GT500, although a Shelby Cobra would be a nice machine to have on the drive-way.

If I had many I'd buy this, 1952 :Les Paul gold top, first series. Sounds like heaven, plays like sh!t, but really something to have for a guitarist.
