Hello fellow brothers and sisters
(Pardon my grammar I'm not one to fond of it)
I have a question, it's about my interest in cars and before someone replies no it's not for showing off, I like to build cars so I can use them on the racetrack for my enjoyment, however it's haram to buy expensive items however some of the best cars to track are rather expensive, would it be haram to buy them even if I donated money to charity aswell?

No it's not haram. As long as you pay zakah (mandatory charity), after that you can use your money for anything as long as the "real haram" thing, such as gambling, alcohol, etc.
Of course it'll be nice if you also do more charity to help others or to support Islamic activitis such as Islamic school etc.
Salam/Peace,

Semar
