If I can have 1 more, I'll tale a 1971 Alpine A110 - I grew up in Belgium and loved seeing these at the Monte Carlo when I was a kid

My choices are 95' 993 Coupe with 6 spd, 993tt, 1950 RR Silver Dawn Drophead, 356 Carrera 2, 1958 Ferrari 250 California LWB Spyder. If I were adept at posting photos I could show you my picks.....Chris

This would require some thought but first few that come to mind:

Gulf 917
McLaren M8B
Pantera
356
Audi 5000 Quatro ( built like a brick s&@$ house)

Curious though what Peter chose for motorcycles . . .

Guess the one I mentioned didn't count..........

(Fascinated that there's always the love for the cars which can't be driven faster than the standard 993 that we all already have, and seldom are even when they make it to the track. From the Alex, I'll take "Can I Buy An Apex" for $1200:

The min apex speeds demonstrated here would put you near DFL in a regional Spec Miata race.)

Sorry, Ken you're right. The 993 Evo should count, too. I though about it, but decided most would not know what it was or looked like.
