CTS-V, maybe the station wagon
Grand sport
some kind of truck
Porsche 911
and a bucket so I can fit in with the hood-rats if necessary
(for the record I can't even relate to the exotic's, see them all the time in Hollywood, CA)

Too heavy. I'd rather have the Dauer 962 I listed. Slightly lower top speed than the Bugatti, but it gets there faster.

I prefer American cars. There were plenty of other American cars (classic/muscle) that I would take over the Lambo, but I figured with that kind of money a person should have atleast one exotic car for showing off. To each his own.

So you've driven both muscle and exotics and prefer the ride, handling, and attention factor of old muscle over modern exotics. Okay, but as you said, "to each his own".

I have had the opportunity to ride and drive a varity of muscle and exotics in the past but nothing as new as the Aventador. I only chose it being the newest and greatest from Lamborghini. I'm sure this Lambo is alot more comfortable and better at everything than the old muscle cars, but it's not always about the comfort and technology for me.

but it's not always about the comfort and technology for me.

A friend who had a Countach(in the family) taught me a lesson about exotics & tall people.....none-the-less, here is my list

1. ONE/77.......Aston
2. SESTO..Lamborghini
3. FXX....Ferrari

the last two are VERY specific "one ofs"

4. The black GT40 that ran @ Le Mans, I believe it was #2
5. The '71 ZR2 Corvette that raced in the 70's with the Southern Battle flag on the roof(just to save it from the PC repaint it got.)
