CREATIVE ADVENTURES — 32

Imagine You Own Five Luxury Cars

What will you do with them?

In this exercise, you will imagine that you own five luxurious cars. Please respond to the following questions:

1. Which cars and models do you prefer? You can choose any model, brand, or make. You can choose the same model or each can be a different one. You can also customize them as you wish. You can also give them names.
2. Why did you choose these models and brands? Briefly describe the physical, technical, and functional characteristics of each car. How will you use each car?
3. Imagine that you could design, customize, and create your own car. Describe your ideal car. How would you interact with it? How would you use it? How would it be unique? How would it respond to your needs?
4. Create a story of why you came to own these five luxury cars. These cars are rather expensive. How come you came to own them? Create your story or stories.
5. Imagine that your goal is to maximize your wealth. How would you use these five cars to increase your wealth over the long term? Think of them as your assets. How would you allocate them to maximize your wealth?
6. Choose the car that you love best. You will now think of 20 different ways to use this car (not only for getting from point A to point B). You can include crazy, fun, or foolish ideas.
7. Imagine how cars will be in 10 to 15 years. Design your futuristic car. Your car will probably be electric, self-driving, and sustainable. It might talk to you. It might offer you a wide selection of learning and entertainment options. You can write your article, shoot a video, stream a broadcast, sleep, or play a computer game in your car as your car acts as the driver. What else? Write a science fiction story that involves this futuristic car.
8. Create a thriller or an adventure story that features one of these cars. Who are the heroes? Who are the antagonists? Who chases whom? Who is escaping? Why? What happens next?
9. Create a Netflix show that takes features cars. It can be any format or genre (comedy, reality show, documentary, film, or else). What is the title of this show? Who is the target audience? Develop your ideas and the format for this program.
10. Imagine that you can use this car as a time machine capsule. You can go back in time or go forward to the future. Which year or time would you travel to? How would you go there? What happens next? Create your time travel story.
