The Corvette would top my list, although the new Camaro looks dang tough on a cheaper scale. I would also be game for the Lexus or Infiniti sports coupes and the big one for me would be an Aston Martin - any model would do.

Would it be ok if I admitted to test driving an '84 Ferrari Testarossa while on my mission?
Talk about a sweet ride. The general manager of the dealership in Siracusa was the EQ President and allowed me to take it for a drive as a going home present. As great as it was, I'll stick to wanting a Countach.

Why read about sports cars when you can own one?
If you spent less money windsurfing and survival camping, you could own one, too. A corvette, I mean. They are relatively inexpensive.

corvettes are excellent bang for buck
The z-06 is pretty nice, and has a lot of performance for the price. I drove one quite a bit before purchasing my current car. Just decided I wanted something a little more spiffy. I'm old and have driven some nice cars . 77, 78 & 79 Porsche 930 turbos were great but goofy at high speeds. Older cars were 65 jaq xke conver. 4.2, 69 big block vettes, 74 Pantera, 72 lambo Jarama, camaros( 327 & 396 turbo jets. ) They can all be VERY expensive to maintain. Vette is an excellent sports car and good buy, imo.

Did you ever get near a Miura? Lambo made/makes some iconic vehicles...no matter how shaky the drive.

I still have my favorite car . 94 Pontiac Firehawk. Pumped up twice with about 425 bhp. Gets 22 miles per gallon on road due to big cam.
