trackjunkie is infamous around these parts
911s always grab my attention, but whenever I'm in my 911 and wave or nod to the owners they look away

Always have had a soft spot for e36 m3s modded or not, since that was my first sports car. And it was funny when I was in my m3 I would always wave to the other m3 owners and I'd get a wave back, even the e30 m3 guys and some of the other modded bmws. I still catch myself waving sometimes

damn pretentious porsche owners

Agreed on the XKE!

The new XKR's are pretty sweet too (can you tell the Aston DB9 team designed the new Jag's?)






Old muscle cars always turn my head!

Had a 1970 'cuda in high school ... bought it from a buddy for $400!



I loved the SS Nova ... one of the baddest cars ever made!



But probably my favorite ... show me a 911/993 widebody driving down the street and I'll show you a big grin!! Pretty car. (notice the design elements in common with the SS; big rear end gives it a look of speed even when standing still!)

Local guy has a Vanquish, another has a DB9. There is an orange Murcielago, a yellow 360, a silver R8, and my white GT-R that I see (along with a black one, another white one, and a now a red one). Porsches don't stick out to me. Too many Boxters and C2s to even bother to notice if it is a TT or not - they all look the same from the front, and the 996 C2 looks a lot like the TT/GT3/GT2 anyway.
Funny, I like the exact opposite type of cars and can care less about something that a clueless blonde (not calling you a clueless blonde ) would consider HOT.

I love cars that fly under the radar of an average fat wallet numbnut/clueless blonde and are recognizable only to hard core enthusiast.

Not picking on you because you don't care for 911s, just found it interesting that it was completely opposite of what I would turn my head after.

I am one of the opposites. I find 911s (I've owned several, for various levels of heat) rather boring and none of them seem particularly stylish.

The Maserati Ghibli, and the Mangusta, are the two recent cars I think are irresitable. Among very modern cars, the AM Vantage is gorgeous - but I have a DB9 in mind just because of the greater interior room.

...high performance coupes... especially when driven by "high performance (HP) women".

Couple of day ago it was a Boxter Spyder driven by an HP blonde babe.

As the price of the vehicle maintenance raises, so does the cost of maintenance of the woman who drives it.

I believe they are directly proportional.
