Friend and future brother in law are repo men... get to drive all kinds of stuff, usually not insanely high end though.
Lately the nicest were an 07 Z06 and a 07 Cadillac XLR.Edit: Forgot about a magnum srt-8, my buddy had the engine smoking by the time we delivered it. Couldn't believe how hard on it he was...
I get to abuse Zs every once in awhile with donuts and burnouts, since I never do them in mine :P
1. 2002 Porsche 911 GT2
2. 2006 Ferrari F430
3. 1993 RX-7 Tri-rotor Tri-turbo
3. 2004 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S Cabriolet
4. My Z (not as fast or expensive but its all mine!!)
1. 1989 Civic CRX Si-In Red! Felt like driving a go cart/bumper car the thing turned on a dime and the 4 cylinder sounded sooo right!
2. 1980 Datsun 510 Coupe- 4 gears,lightweight & you could predictably drift through you favorite business park all night long way before drifting became fashionable.
3. Every 1982-1989 V8 Camaro/Firebird with T-tops I have ever driven (I owned many) they just feel/look right and with the T-Tops off you just feel cool and free!
13. 1979 Porsche 930 Turbo- The *** end would alway pass up the front end, 4 speeds and nothing more!
14. 1980 Porsche Targa- Fun & Powerslides plus you can let you hair blow in the wind!
15. Every 1990 through 2003 Mazda Miata I have driven- Fun, lightweight (I need to get off my macho high horse and just buy one of these already!).
16. 1998 Camaro Z28 W/T-tops- Push the accelerator & it is like someone smacking you back with a shovel!
17. 2001 Camaro Z28 W/T-tops- Had over 400hp to the rear wheels! Why did I sell this car again?
18. 2007 Z06 Corvette- WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
19. 1992 BMW 850Ci- Beautiful, Sexy, Smooth!

23. 1974 Corvette Coupe- Blue, 4 Spd, 454, T-tops, Sounds, Smells, looking at the front fenders bulging through the windshield.
24. 2008 Nissan 350Z Enthusiast-Just finished the car last week & drove it for fun this weekend. Felt as sharp as a switch blade, Looks tough. Gives me great pleasure!
Fastest is probably the McLaren 12c that i am (I'm)patiently awaiting to arrive at my house from a purchase in Florida. My Maserati Granturismo S is one of the best cars I've driven purely because 1. ACTUAL back seats in a coupe. 2. Ferrari engine on it sounds GLORIOUS, 3. It's been reliable (same cannot be said for some of my past italian lovers).
My buddies Aventador SV was insane to drive and SOME day I hope to have one ... hopefully his, lol. i love his color combo/mods. (lime green and black)
a few months back i was invited to rip on 911 turbos at a track that porsche rented out for the day ..... for free. lol full day of ripping on their 911 turbo's for $0.00 .... THAT was a blast. I had never done a track day prior in cars (only on motorcycles) .... 911 turbo's aren't my style but holy **** are they ever amazing pieces of cars.
1988 Pontiac Fiero 2.8L 5-speed rear engine/rear drive. For a small, light-weight plastic car, that thing could haul ***!!!
Nearly bought one of these before I ended up buying my '84 Z31. It was coming in from another dealer but the engine caught fire on the way to the dealer! Talk about avoiding a major bullet.
Memorable cars:
- 1984 Z31
- 1983 Porsche 944
- 1991 Eagle Talon TSI AWD Turbo
- 2015 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8L
- 2005 35 AE 350Z (current)
probably not the "best"-but most def-the most expensive.....
Ferrari 458 Italia
(there was a exotic car thingy i saw on my way home one day- where they let you run some laps around a large parking lot course...so of course-i had to stop and give it a try)
Drove a 458 in December 15', had a friggin' blast, Exotics Racing in Vegas. Warmed-up with a Cayman, on to a Lambo Aventador, which I turned the fastest lap time in, then the Italia. By far the best of the 3 for pure driving experience. Have it on video too, with a 'coach' chewin' in my ear the whole time, I should post-up a snippet Dropped some coin but worth every penny.
Best? Hard call, back in the day a 69' Super Bee 440 6-pack (pretty rare) and a 70' Cuda that a buddy picked-up in the early 80's. My old 48' *****'s CJ2A (1st vehicle I ever owned) was an all-time "best" growing-up in CO.
1.) Mclaren 650s (car is just insane) one of the best supercars out there for its time
2.) Ferrari 458
3.) 350z
4.) Ferrari California (yes the 350z is above it on my list. 350z is more of a drivers car, where the california is a fast gt car. Fun, and comfortable, but not the same experience)
5.)Bentley Flying Spur. Totally different, but one of the most luxurious rides you could imagine.
I've owned/driven a lot of cars. Many of which might be considered "best" by, say, Rodent Track or Carton Driver magazines (I know, "What's a 'magazine'?" Laff....)
But what's "best" according to these rags and public consensus, don't cut it for me. "MY BEST" aren't anywhere near these fancy pen. extension cars (like my pair of AMGs or my Porsche) in terms of raw performance but they are my "FAVS".
1970 Dodge Coronet with a 440 6-pack, traction bars and wide tires all around. Belonged to a friend actually. Got stopped by the State Police and was eligible for 7 tickets. I was 16 and he knew I was young and dumb so he gave me a warning after reading me the riot act. But boy that was one hell of a ride.
1968 Plymouth Barracuda rag top with a 383 Magnum and a 4-barrel carburetor, air shocks, chrome mags. My first true muscle car!
(A bunch of vanilla cars for many years)
My 2006 350Z which I still own, has 47K and is now 11 years old but still looks brand new! And it's Daytona Blue with OEM Chrome wheels so it still grabs attention. My local dealer asked me if I wanted to sell it last summer. I said no of course.
Bought this about a month ago. The c7 Grand Sport is an amazing car. . .Would be a fun car for the track, but that's what I bought the Z. I've seen to many people at HPDE days crash their daily drivers or their weekend fun cars.
I just signed up because I might buy a 350Z. My list isn't very impressive in comparison, but I'll play lol.
01 911 TT 6spd
03 S2000 - Current car that I may sell for a 350Z roadster or something else
07 WRX 5spd
07 Legacy Spec B 6spd
99 Civic EX (Si trim in Canada) - I loved this car, high mileage and had it in university. Never let me down, coils, wheels, lips, intake, exhaust, stereo, it was great to me
08 Infiniti EX35 - Current winter car, nothing special but I like the platform it shares with the Z
