Boxster, without a shadow of a doubt. I know it's seen as a bit of a hairdressers car (with apologies to any boxster owners / hairdressers reading this). Girlfriend happened to drive hers over to a track day at the weekend, and for a laugh I took it out back to back with the GT2. I've enjoyed driving it on the roads before, but after a few laps I was absolutely gobsmacked at just how competent the car is. The grip and brakes even on the stock 2.7 car are simply staggering. Was lapping distinctly faster than the couple of scoobys that were there, simply due to the handling.

i would take a 73 RS clone. good ones found for 40, ok ones for 25. altho' the ultimate is a 3.8 RSR motor on a 79 turbo body, etc which can easily run 100...

Funnily enough there was an RSR on the track day I've just mentioned - very nice car. Gave me a good run for my money!

Infiniti G35 coupe 6MT in Diamond Graphite... I had a deposit down for one but they wouldn't deal on it so I walked and got my C4S @ 9k off msrp... it was a matter of principle.
