I have quite a few favorites, but when this came out, I drooled over this.

I have two in mind......early 70s 240Z and late 70s Mazda RX7.

My choice for a recent offering is the Dodge Viper.

None of the '80s Vettes to me fit the definition of a "sports car".  To me sports cares are more esoteric vehicles like  Ferraris or Lambos or similar. I like them all - I don't have one specific favorite.  I really don't have a single specific anything I would call "my favorite".  I like too many things to narrow it down to a single item.  :)  When I see all then "what's my favorite" threads I always wonder how can anyone narrow anything down to a one specific item.

I like the Kaiser Darrin; fan of those doors that slide into the fender.

Great Choice!

Does this say you are not married? Just kidding.

You are right I find it hard to pick one myself

In increasing order of the likelihood of actually owning one: a 911 Reimagined by Singer, a Cayman GT4, an Alpine A110, a Lotus Elan, a regular Cayman, an Aston Martin DB7, a Jaguar XKR and an MX-5...

best,

Love the lines of the Lola-GT Mk6. Saw one on Leno's Garage, it is a small car. I have a 1/32 scale Monogram curbside model that I need to refurbish. Wish it was available in full-detail 1/25 scale.

The C4 Corvette is my all time favorite.

Here is my 88.

It's just missing the red stripe down the side, like Face's car!

I like the C4s, too...... I have some on a driving game.

Pantera... before the ruined it with fender flares and spoilers...

Direct descendent of the Mangusta.  De Tomaso smoothed out all the problems of the original & made a deal with FoMoCo to market the cars through Lincoln/Mercury dealers.  Not quite as pretty, but they managed to retain the original lines as designed by Ghia.  Still, a classic car well ahead of it's time.

Pantera was quite different than the Mangusta,  Styling, of course, was different.  Pantera had monococque construction where the Mangusta had a separate central backbone chassis.
