I voted muscle car, not cos I love my porsche any less.
but I love cars like corvettes, and mustangs, especially the rag tops, but in the real world, big engine, mig fuel bills and LHD !

In my honest opinion, All of those vehicles have very different applications. My goal is what determines my weapon of choice. I don't want to go out an old twisty road in my 34 year old Hemi car. For a sports car Porsche has always been my first choice.

Porsches is pretty much capable in any kind of driving, twisties or long high-speed straights, it can do it very well. That's very hard to beat.
That said, I also wouldn't mind a super bike in the stable (But not in the US). These things are pure fun!! |

I have a 69 Mustang Mach! 428SCJ...that has had suspension and brake upgrades to make it handle better.....
I also have a 1969 911S, which needs and engine OH... Between the 2, I prefer the Porsche...it's quick and it handles oh so well..... What I would like to find is a 356 rag top...in one of it's various forms....it would be a car just to putt around in...

I voted for the police car, because 405 or not, my daily commute would be much quicker with that. PLus they're fast, and handle pretty decently. A great way to meet girls/take advantage of them...Oh wait, I'm married...Plus, I'd have guns in the car, so sorry about your bad luck if you get me too fired up.
BTW - I'm a little upset that monster truck wasn't in the pool...How's a real redneck supposed to survive without a truck he can walk under?!?!

Been there, done that...except for the cop car and the SUV...(I guess a Meyers Manx qualifies as a kit car)

When I was Fire Chief, My vehicle was a '02 Ford Crown Vic Police Interceptor, a very capable car! It was no P-car but it would give most cars a run for the money.
