The "world's most interesting man" - what would he drive?
If he were real, what car (s) would he be driving?

How about a Morgan or maybe a Bizzarinni? Maybe an old Mercedes SL. I almost said E-type, but I think that may be too expected. Maybe he's driving Hugh's old AM DB4

+1 One of the new ones.
I was driving one day and turned on a sports talk channel on XM. They were interviewing this VERY normal sounding guy. Well, it turns out he was "The Most Interesting Man in the World" He is, (actually was), a character actor from the 80's. Was on a lot of Dallas episodes. He is a business man now. Something about his wife being his Mgr. and heard Dos Equis was looking for a spokesperson. So he kinda said what the hell I'll try out for it. He had been friends with Fernando Lamas, (since passed away), doing a lot of sailing with him. So he decided prior to his audition he'd honor his friend by mimicking Lamas' accent. As they say the rest is history.

Something old. Like a 50's Jaguar, but he could drive anything from a BMX to the space shuttle you know.

He don't drive under the influence (too cool for that), he is in the back of a limo with women half his age.

XK140 with a "C" type head.
Ivory with an Ox blood interior. That and a DB4. He also has a '72 Dodge van that's set up to be a stab'n cabin.

I was thinking along those lines. My first thought was an unrestored (but maintained) 1930's open-top Bentley in driving condition. That would be interesting.
