For some reason I see him in an Italian v12 GT.



Or maybe an E type.

Yes. The MIMITW marketing campaign has been effective. From Wiki:
The Most Interesting Man in the World - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"According to the company, U.S. sales increased each year between 2006-2010[4] and tripled in Canada in 2008[5], although exact figures were not provided. Sales of Dos Equis said to have increased by 22% at a time when sale of other imported beer fell 4% in the U.S.[6] The agency rationale for the brand strategy was defined thus; "He is a man rich in stories and experiences, much the way the audience hopes to be in the future. Rather than an embodiment of the brand, The Most Interesting Man is a voluntary brand spokesperson: he and Dos Equis share a point of view on life that it should be lived interestingly."

BTW, the actor is Jonathon Goldsmith.
Jonathan Goldsmith - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

.... and he can drive anything he wants, but he used to live on a boat.

Rumors of his death early in 2011 appear to be false.

FWIW,
Sherwood

If you must know, I drive a 1985 Porsche 911

Actually, I am going with a Mercedes Pullman, with a driver, likely an attractive redhead with a tan.

I'm still pretty sure he would drive a G-Klass. He is all around awesome, not just awesome in 1 area. The G is all around awesome.

In 1935, Ab Jenkins as well as Tony Gulotta raced 24 hours only stopping every 400 miles for fuel and tires. After it was over, they proved the Duesenberg was one of the fastest cars in the world by covering 3523 miles in 24 hours at an average speed of 135.47 mph
(it's one of the most expensives car in the world too, $4 1/2 mil in 2004).

I agree with the Lambo Miura. Or a DeTomaso Pantera. Maybe an early Countach.

Haha - I think you made the connection between the man and the beer even clearer than it was before.
