- All M3s (E30, E36, E46, E90)
- Lotus Elise - Ferrari F575 Maranello - Porsche 993 Turbo - MINI Challenge Race Car - Lots of BMWs (750i (F01, E65), 530i, 120i, 130i, 135i, 325i, 116i, Z4 2.5i, X3 (2.5i, 3.0i), X6 3.5i, X5 (3.0i & 4.4i), E36 325is & 328is (at the 'ring - 15 laps). - Dodge Viper (original, early '90s) Of those, I'd say: - The E90 M3 is the best all rounder by far. - The E46 M3 is the most exciting to drive on the street of the M3 range. - The Lotus Elise is the most fun on a track. - The 993 TT is the most exhilarating.

a guy in fishers, IN (where I live) owns one....cant remember his name off the top of my head (tom, tim something like that) but he's been on msnbc/cnn for his exotic garage. one of my friends told me it was in a parking lot and i drove about 20min out of my way just to stand next to it. my girlfriend however, didnt even give it a second look. i tried to explain to her that she will NEVER see this car again in real life (besides when i own one
![]() ![]() i was standing next to it and the guy came out of the restaurant he was eating at, walked right past me (as i had my head pushed up to his passenger-side window trying to get a better look at the interior), started it up and took off ![]() ![]() my tops: slk55 amg (damn fast) porsche 911 cab (dads old car, fun car) 335i (pretty close to the slk in speed IMO) test drove in a X6 50i (incredible speed/handling for its size) one of my dads buddies has an M6 (never driven it but it felt damn quick) |

Best car?
I'll be honest and leave just short test drives of 'best' cars out of it. Most driving fun My Lotus Elan+2 I once owned. My 2002tii I once owned. The (genuine) Lotus Seven that a close friend owns (but I will admit I've driven only twice.) My 993 C4S I currently own. Most driving fun with comfort My Bavaria 3.0 I used to own. My 300 SEL I used to own. My E63 I currently own. |

Yes, and he also owns an original King Cobra. And that's not all he owns.
He's won several Clio Awards in the cinema/television category and is a long time car buff. He used to race in the vintage circuit and at the Monterey Historic. |

I've driven a few nice cars, but by far the best has been the F430. I am a HUGE GT3 fan, but I have never had a change to drive one!
![]() List of some of the exotics that I enjoyed driving... - 996 TT (modded) - 996 Ruf GT2 - 997 Turbo - Lamborghini Gallardo - Ferrari F430 In a seperate category I would put... - R35 GTR - Aston Martin Vantage (performance wasn't jaw dropping, but was very fun) - Various BMW's and Mercedes (E46 M3/E92 M3/C63/etc)

Way quicker than you'd expect, and a lot of fun. It felt very special. Very, very solid, very stable at speed, very little body roll, but still a smooth ride. Acceleration from 60-140 was FAST, even with the top down.
It would be a good car to go "big pimping" in. Not my favorite car of all time, but very cool, and unique.

I would not rate these as what is best for me, but what is best for its purpose
Enzo - bare and raw. Loved it. Excellent track toy with a beautiful screamer in the back Veyron - quiet and all about the luxury. Felt like flying in my friend's Hawker LP640 Roadster - a heavy piece of machinery. To me it felt heavier than the Veyron. Draws more attention than the CGT CGT - perhaps I am getting old. The clutch wears me down in traffic, so I do not drive it as often nowadays. ' SLR - feels the heaviest of the bunch and the handling is the worst of the bunch. It felt more like a lightened Maybach with loads of torque Scuderia - very easy to drive and the shift time on this is amazing. Very capable track car
