Most fun car?
Foxies thread got me thinking.
What is the most fun car you've ever driven? The one that consistently put a grin on your face and it didn't matter if anyone was looking? For me (in order): '56 Speedster '70 AMX (390, 4 speed) 1960 Mini Cooper S '47 Dodge pickup '88 911

My 1980 TR7 convertible. Did nothing all that well, but was reliable and got me everywhere I needed to go. Just a lot of good memories associated with that car.

It was my uncle's car but he had no problem letting his 16-17 y/o nephew take it on a parts run.

911E on the road, Tristar off the road. Actually, I've had Baja Bugs that were more fun off the road.

For pure fun it was my well sorted '67 bug with the 2 liter Berg engine, smoking most cars 0-60 (after that it ran out of gear) always put a grin on my face.
I've almost finished rebuilding it (2nd pan-off resto) with a bigger engine and a 901 trans.

- I've had tons of driving my 944S2. (It is a well-set up 944, ya know...) It is a fun car to throw into the corners and catch on the other side.
 - In college, whenever I asked, my friend would throw me the keys to her Fiat Spyder 2000. That car was a blast to drive on the PA country roads surrounding my college. Come to think of it, I did a lot of crazy fun driving while in college in my Plymoth TC-3 and my Mustang LX) - Mrs Z-man's VW Eos is also a fun car for cruizin' with the top down. A couple of summers ago, we took a vacation in Maine - drove all the way up with the top down. Top down, warm summer day, beautiful wife by my side -- good times indeed. -Z

06 Lotus Elise. Drives like a well sorted out 914.
914. The car that taught me the wonders of a light weight car. Dune Buggy. Only drove it 50ft, but I was only 13 and I got to drive it 50ft!
