Notable cars I've driven:

Italian

- 430 Scuderia
- 458 Italia
- F355

German

- '08 Cayman
- MK6 GTi
- 135i

Japanese

- 180sx, heavily modified (~275 RWHP and 2600 lb.)
- '98 Legacy GT
- various WRX's

Out of all of these cars I definitely enjoyed the 430 Scuderia the most. It was raw, insanely fast, tight – and the sound, oh man! I was also driving it with a Ferrari test driver in the Italian countryside...what a day!

My 180sx was a lot of fun – upgraded brakes, suspension, cams, straight pipe exhaust, etc., and most of all, pretty light.

Surprisingly I enjoyed the MK6 GTi quite a bit. I've never been a fan of FWD but this car was impressive.

The Cayman was my first Porsche experience (Porsche has always been my favourite manufacturer). The car was great, but it could have used a bit more power. Would definitely spend the extra money for an S, or an R if I could swing it.

My old '98 Legacy GT was my first car, and a lot of fun in the snow and dirt!

The F355 sounded great but unfortunately I was just driving straight on the highway most of the time (albeit pretty quickly).

The 458 was incredible at first – that was until I drove the 430 Scuderia right after.

135i is fast as **** but I drove an automatic one and it felt like the car was driving itself.

 

Aside from my current 996 GT3, I rteally enjoyed the F430 and GT-R.

 

87 Grand National (700 hp)

'72 3/4 ton Dodge (built 355 with 400 shot nitrous, 10.1 car)

 

Most fun...
1. 2007 Honda Civic Si w/ Cold Air Induction system.
2. 1978 (final edition) Mazda RX-3.

 

Lotus Elise for sh*ts & giggles on the track and almost any Ferrari for the sound track

 

My vote goes to the 4G63 Mitsubishi Evo . I love front based quick steering, pretty fast and easy to drive. I hope my TTRS will be similar. The new GTR would have had my vote if they offered a manual tranny. I personally didn't love the car due to their dual clutch. It was more annoying than a standrad auto.

The 1M looks like it may be fun but didn't test drive or buy that yet. Maybe .

The 2nd car maybe my RS. The total oppsite of the evo.

 

458 italia - if I could only own one car, this would be it. A daily driver, weekend track toy, and everything else in between. It has the power, sound, and sex appeal of a true exotic. Simply an awesome experience. My other choice would be the Carrera GT. It is an engineering masterpiece. The CGT delivers a raw, on the edge, exhilarating experience combined with cutting edge technology. It is a car that gives the most rewarding experience and feedback when driven properly at it's limits. The CGT's looks are timeless and has an exhaust note to die for.

 

1- My current ride: a GT3 Cup 997 2009. (Are race cars eligible for this survey ?)
2- My previous 997.1 GT3

(among all sport cars I tested over the years including F430, Gallardo, Lotus Elise, BMW M6, Aston Martin Vantage, Audi R8)

 

997.2 GT3 RS followed closely by my 993 (3.8 RS Clone) race car; Honorable mention goes out to 996 GT3 (sold it; need another!); RS America (set up as a 964 Euro RS) and 355 Ferrari Challenge Car.

 

Modded GT-R and a tie between the Gallardo and R8. Gallardo because it's the first Lambo I've driven and R8 because I just adore that gated shifter in it.
