your all wrong. you have all picked cars shaped like willy's wich makes me suspect that you are all secretly closet homosexuals. pure driving fun should be durable and something designed to be thrashed.

The pic is a Superformance 1965 Corbra 427sc licenced by Shelby.
It fast as hell, reliable, and I can afford it soon!

I may be slightly jaded because I own an SL-55 AMG, but I would really like to have an SLR......when I bought the watch from D4M, I thought the car came with it.....I was wrong

My favorite seems to be the MB CL 600. I've had many of the exotics and I find them uncomfortable for everyday driving. Also they have to be pampered.

My CL 600 is as comfortable as a sedan and with 500 HP and twin turbos I can fly when I want to.

I had a CL 55 and liked it a lot. The power felt a bit raw. The seats were a bit uncomfortable with the stiffened bolsters.

Now I love my CL 600. The seats are great and the power is there but more refined.

Now I need to find an oil well I can tap into directly. This puppy suck up gas.

After all we are supposed to be talking about a daily driver, no?

However, if it is just looks, then my vote goes with the Aston.

From a "looks" point of view The last mini Ferrari I loved was the 355. The last 12 cylinder Ferrari I loved was the 456.

Just my viewpoint.

I hope you know that isnt a picture of the actual car, thats a model

Awesome model, yes? Great eye, D.

I like to build them, too, or did 5-6 years ago.

If I'm only getting one 'fun' car it will have to be light. nimble and capable of shutting down most comers. Depending on budget that leaves two choices, the almighty giant killing Seven:

With the Toyota GA-ZE you are getting well over 200HP with good blower boost from down low in the rev range. With an all up weight of 600kg or less this is one hell of a mountain car or back road blaster.


Of cause if money is no object, go the rich man's go cart, the Zonda Type R:

And you know what? I can think of a few roads the seven would be faster on :)
