Tough choice...16M as mentioned ticks all the right boxes and leaves the hair on the back of your neck on end with wot....brakes, handling, gearbox with 60ms shifts, all with wind blowing through your hair....sensational.
CGT...teutonic brilliance with shattering performance, engineered to perfection, a work of art from the bottom up that is a race car setup for the street...boulevard cruisers need not apply, this one is for gearheads only. Possibly the best sounding car out there.
GT3RS...about as perfect a road car/handling setup as possible for the street...turn in is like a kart, engine just begs to be revved and revved through the gear range...a track day thrasher that can be driven home...the pinnacle of the 911 range ? Stay tuned for the GT2RS...
Finally, the F40...the Italians do a masterful job at packaging "emotion"...from its looks standing still in the garage...to its spartan interior details...the pops and burbles on overrun, warp like thrust on boost...and a knife edge personality that demands rapt attention while driving lest it bite you hard...all combine to leave you with an adrenaline rush like no other I have experienced. Long after the key is turned off, the buzz continues....it is automotive crack.
Choosing is tough and like picking a favourite amongst your children (well, not quite
).
If only allowed to keep one, it would be the F40.

wyatt nailed it
If I only had 1 car I would buy a 16m. 99% of my driving is in the Sun. 99% of my driving I like speed. 99% of my driving would be satisfied by a 16m.
Should have ordered a Carrara White when it was offered.
Wyatt really listens well. My favorite car is my GT3RS. Same with the wife. Fantastic driver. Gives pure pleasure even getting milk.
CGT is such a fantastic car for a collection. Has to be top 3 of anything I've ever driven. Problems with the CGT for me.
1) Too much attention. I like to blend in.
2) Too much chance to get my Ars thrown in jail
3) It's just too hard to take places. No way for a weekend with my wife out of state. No room for anything in that car. We just spent 5 fantastic days around the Canadian Rockieis in it and damn perfect driver. Very comfortable. 1500 miles and not one complaint because we had a truck hauling all of our luggage
So the 16m is the car to own. FAST...Holy $hit fast. Topless. Huge trunk. All of it in a tight little package. I'd have to install better seats for long trips. That's the downside.
Everytime Kuzi hits the throttle in his 16m in front of my spider I look at my wife and ask her if I'm driving a 4 cylinder.
