Dream Day

Of all the great Porsche's made, if you had a chance to pick any "street" legal Porsche to drive for a day on the track or street what would it be? If you could pick any to own, what would that be?

For me, I think I have to go with the Dauer 962 on the track & own the Carrera GT, although I've always been partial to the 550 Spyder and a 959.

race car? Is there any other choice besides 917?



I personally would want the Gulf-Wyer paint scheme...

And road cars? The 993 Turbo was the car that cemented my love for Porsches, but for the new cars I would take the gen. 2 GT3




and the new Carrera GT has pretty much become my dream car... although I am still waiting to see how it stacks up against the McLaren F1 and the Ferrari Enzo on the track

does the recent incarnation of Ruf's R turbo qualify? as for the other choices; I would probably have a breakdown trying to decide between the 904, 917, 935, 962, Dauer 962, Carrera GT, GT1, GT2, ohh... my head is starting to hurt
