Is this one correct?

Were I have enough money, I would buy that car

I think there should be a "to" following "I" and preceding "have" right?

Re: Is this one correct?

I assume you know that "If I had" would be a much more common way to say this, though, right?

I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
