Here's my (realistic) list:

1. Mitsubishi Evo VI-VIII
2. Honda S2000
3. Audi RS4
4. 1970 Porsche 911S
5. Porsche 997.2 GT3
6. Ferrari F430 Scuderia
7. Chevy Chevelle LS6
8. Ferrari F40
9. Porsche Carrera GT
10. Tesla Roadster

I think some are grossly underrated, others are one-of-a-kind, and the Tesla is the way of the future - instant torque, outstanding mileage.

4) Sharkified GT3 RS (built to near cup car)
5) 1974-75 RSR replica (preferably IROC replica car in Riviera Blue)
6) Ferrari F40 or F50 (not being realistic now)
7) For some reason I've really been liking the AM DBS lately
8) Ariel Atom - would be a f***ing blast in the Texas Hill Country
9) 1968 MB 300 SEL 6.3L - sometimes you just need something cool
10) e39 M5 - since my pops is driving it right now
Lime Creek Road especially!
