I'd love to have a mint condition, all stock, '83/84 GTI.

I've never been a big Vdub fan. Always thought them to be a bit feminine and under powered. But to each his own.

1965 or 1966 Corvair turbo convertable.

"The faster you go, the faster you go...."

Remember; 1965 introduced the improved suspension system, based on the Corvette, eliminating the "tuckunder" that doomed the earlier versions.

buried the needle with 500+ rpm to go and rising....

+1 on the Corrado VR6 (I had a 92 and was fun to drive)

I'll vote for a Fiat X1/9. My brother had one, it was a little too small for my legs but it was like driving a go cart. The steering wheel sits between your knees. Not real fast but when you're that low to the ground with the top off, it feels faster than it really is. And you'll definitely get the looks/laughs etc...
