    "A car that to take out to just enjoying driving, enjoy and appreciate its engineering, not so much about looks as it is speed and driving, take on some leisurely road trips. Has to be a coupe and preferably a 6-Speed."

    Well, it doesn't have to be bad looking, it can be beautiful, but speed comes first.

    Well I'm not really in the market, but still beautiful Dino!

    My first post was me paraphrasing a friend who looks up to me in a car sort of way considering I love cars! We were just having a discussion about true drivers.

    By the way, I thought you only had 1996 Dodge Caravan? ;)

    What do you mean by speed? Top speed, 0-60, 1/4mile, speed through slaloms, N'ring lap times, ...?

    Well, just overall, it's a very fast car, fun to drive. So I guess mainly 0-60 or 1/4. I guess I don't mean it has to be really fast, just that the car is more focused on performance in general.

    For me it would have to be something visceral and likely vintage. For brute acceleration it's tough to beat large displacement American iron.
    How about a sixties pony car done up in Trans-Am racer style?

    That's kind of what I was thinking. If that's not fast enough there is always the Noble M400/Rossion Q1.
