I agree as well. The sight and sound of near 20 GTOs racing through the infamous Corkscrew at Laguna Seca in 2004 is something that I will never forget. It was, quite simply, amazing.

Oh yea manchild, I've always leaned toward the rounded, smooth look versus angular lines, creases, or flat planes. Personal preference, that's why there are so many designs for different tastes.
But then again, all the sexy women I have observed have the same attributes. :wink:

He would be included under the ones that are realistic, which I implied exist.

No need to rub it in bud. :twisted: :wink:

Nobody likes squary woman including me but unfortunatey nowdays they are promoted by medias as "sexy" so when mentioning sexy cars and sexy woman I stick to same era ('50s to late '80s) 8)

*squary = anorexic*

Hmmm Manchild - cars & women - we agree quite closely

I agree with Dave : Porsche 917, and with Tom with the Cobra. But you forgot a pair wonderful '80s rally-born cars; Porsche 959 and Audi Quattro.

You can pick up GTA's for very reasonable money - a good one is a great car to own, fairly easy to keep running (I've had mine for years). I don't think you will buy better performance for your pound spent. Hint, hint ..... :wink:

Ferrari F430 - for showing of
Land Rover 90 - for off road and towing duties
