And I also personally prefer the F40 over the F50 and Enzo.
I also fully agree

i voted for the SL55 but I'd much rather have a V8 Vantage V600... but i couldn't add it because it's no longer in production... [crying]

Porsche Carrera GT all the way.

It's gorgeous. It's light, it's fast (550hp, 2750lbs = 5lbs/hp.) It's Porsche engineering. It's V10. It's mid-engined. It has ceramic brake rotors. 8000rpm. 0-120mph in under 10 seconds. It's carbon fiber. It's 100% racing technology applied to a meaningful street car. It's topless.

You sir just earned my respect.

-Steve (who would probably swap out the tricky 2.7 for a later 3.0 though).

I still favor the lines of the Countach. In particular the 1989 25th aniversary edition.

1. Lola T-70 III replica frame with a Lola T-70 II body and an alloy bored & stroked Chev big block (only weighs 880kg - thats the car and engine not just the engine).

2. Porsche Boxster with a Ruf-tuned 911 Turbo engine in it (911's have the same basic engine as the Boxster, just that the 911's are bigger capacity).

3. Amaroo clubman (like a Lotus 7) with a worked Nissan 200SX powertrain.

4. An old classic like an Aston DB4 GT or a Ferrari 250 GT SWB (I dont need the Zagato or the GTO, just the GT or the SWB is enough)

5. Suzuki Cappaccino with an RX7 S6 driveline.

6. Radical RA track car thingy ....
