Working with my dad at the shop since I was very young, I have been in many cars.
I will agree with the topic originators that the Triumph TR6 is defiantly a blast to drive. I hope to have one someday. Any of the old brits (XKE's, MB SL's, ect ) are fun to drive.

Other fun cars
1999 ZX9 - first bike. still provide excitement after 30k miles.
any of my 70's T/A's. With each project being faster and better handling than the last, I can't wait to drive the latest.

Some cars that I rode in when I was young and still remember the rides are:
1970 Lambo Espada
Mini cooper (original, not BMW)
1988 930 Porsche w/ wide body
1978 T/A. This car got me stared on the T/A's. I was maybe 10 at the time and my father picked me up from day camp. I remember fishtailing, acceleration, ect. They did some service work on it and gave it a tune. It was supposedly some drug runners car. they found that out after it left.
1969 datsun 610 jumping snow banks and old train beds.

Scariest Car I drove
1952 Jaguar. the handling was atrocious. awful.

Best cruising car(s)
1980 Pace car T/A
1959 Caddy Eldorado Conv. aka my Sr. prom ride. I think I liked the car better than her. What a classic ride.
