Drifting
My wife loves the 928. (lucky me) Since her Volvo died, she now drives a "Any SUV (Jeep Cherokee Sport 4X4) with a boxy look and solid axles, or the looks (White) of a fast vacuum cleaner... ;-)"
As cars go, there really isnt anything i would buy new except maybe a BMW M3 or a Boxster S (my next steet driven Porsche - please dont hate me)
As for cars in general, i have a mix of things i like, like the big pre-'92 Mercedes S-Class luxobarges, the old Audi GT Quattro, the old pagoda roofed Mecedes SL's, the pre '73 911's & 912's, any 356, 1st gen Firebirds (big block of course!), 2nd gen Vettes, any pre '71 Mopar muscle car, Volvo 760 Turbo Wagon, the original Mini, the first gen Lincoln Mark VII SC, late 80's-early 90's Nissan 300Z TT, Dodge Shelby GLHS Omni...and some others i cant remember.
Why do most new cars look like something your grandmother would be happy with or something that looks like it was designed by a Anime artist?
My next new car will be a Ford F150 4X4. My Ranger 4X4 is getting tired and my wife asked me to get a "man" truck next time around. I would love an F350 4X4 crewcab duelie, but it wont fit in the driveway. LOL

Couple more that I've found an interest in(not all in the US, unfortunately).
The TVR Griffith 500 (among other TreVoRs)
the new MG-TF, and the MG sports sedans
Morgan Plus-8 and Aero-8
The upcoming VW Phaeton W12 and similar Bentley Continental GT
A black '84 Trans Am (but only if it talked, you know what I'm talking about Gen-Y-ers)
And finally, the car that started off every episode of the mindbender "The Prisoner" a Lotus (Caterham) Seven. Build it yourself!
