This sadly falls into the unobtanium category but would be my 2nd choice after a singer.

If the premise is pure driving enjoyment, then I'd say the Abarth double bubble or bmw 2002. I enjoy older cars and the dramatics that come with them.

Singer... Love that it looks like an 'old' 911, so would not draw as much attention as I get in my GTS, which at times can get a bit uncomfortable.

I've always wanted to get a 360 spider for fun weekend drives... it's a slower car than my DD 991S, but speed isn't everything.

I am blessed to own my ideal fun cars, a Porsche & a Ferrari. Even my wife's fun car, SLK 250, is not a bad ride. The Porsche I've owned for close to 2.5 years and I still look forward to driving it every time. It's not my DD, since I have almost no commute, but I still think every Sunday night, what's my upcoming work week look like? How can I best arrange my schedule to drive it the most?

Hey T - did you get full paint correction done? The finish looks extra glossy/deep.

I get it. That's a beautiful rendition of the D90. I have similar feelings about my Wrangler. I love my sportscars, but if I could only keep one, I'm not sure it wouldn't be this. As cheap and crude as it is. I just have so damn much fun in it.
