My dream [toy]: I would have to say Lamborghini Aventador. Love the stealth design language of Lambos. Of course it would be a side toy alongside a more practical collection of cars/SUV's.

^^^^^

A guy in an acreage subdivision near my house has an Aventador. We both have the same stoplight that is closest to our respective houses. He approaches the stoplight on the main road (more time with a green light), and I can hear his car (sweet sound) before I can even see it to watch it zoom by. Every time I've seen it, he's had the roof panel off. One time, I was able to turn right after he zoomed by. I was behind him until he turned into the parking lot of our closest Kroger (I was on my way to the mall).

One thing about Lambos, you need to be prepared for crowds of people always coming around to gaze at it. You need to be into attention. Perhaps not as much in California or southern Florida where exotics are more common, but elsewhere in the country, exotics are only seen once every month or couple of months so it is an event to see one.

I've never seen an Aventador, only some older Lamborghini's and cheaper ones like the Gallardo.

I'd take any of the longer named STI's. 22B is king, but there were so many other special editions that rocked.

Road & Track posted their compilation of the '51 Coolest Cars of the last 50 Years' to the MSN homepage. Man, what a trip down memory lane

:

1963 Corvette Sting Ray (with the split rear window) -----

My next door neighbor had one while I was growing up. He had only daughters, so he let us (the boys in the neighborhood) help him detail it....and then his wife would cook a wonderful dinner for all of us.

1972 DeTomaso Pantera -----

My neighbor across the street and up the driveway had one while I was growing up. Yellow, just like the one Road and Track posted. He traded in a gold/brownish 1969 DeTomaso Mangusta to get the Pantera.

1964 Lincoln Continental Convertible (with the suicide doors) -----

My grandmother had one, but not the convertible. New to 'not very many miles' by 1969. She traded it in in 1969 for a new one that also had the suicide doors.

Saab 900 SPG -----

A college roommate of mine started working for his father as an early teen. His dad owned a tire center. He had an arrangement with his dad that his dad wouldn't pay him, he would just get credits toward a new car. He cashed in for a Saab 900 SPG.

Dino 206 -----

The girlfriend I had just after I got my DL had a sister who had one. I helped her wash it a couple of times and got to ride in it on the grounds of their townhome complex, but I never got to ride in it on a road.

Lamborghini Countach -----

One of my high school classmates got one as a high school graduation present. A handful of years or so ago, some family members and I were talking about our first cars. I mentioned that my classmate got a Countach as a high school graduation present. My cousin laughed (he's 7 years older than I am, and we have the same high school alma mater). My cousin asked me the name of the classmate who got the Lamborghini. I told him. He told me that my classmate's older brother was in his class and also got a Lamborghini as a graduation present. He said that, among other businesses, that the family owned a Lamborghini dealership.

1995 Mazda Miata -----

Had a gal pal who had one, and I got to drive it thoroughly.

1967 Jaguar E-type -----

My friend that I went on my first trip to Europe with (even after his sister and I stopped going out) --- this is his favorite car of all time.

I guess their being 'loose with the years'.....as they went a slight bit past 50 years with the list.

No such thing for me - but I did just purchase the exact car that I wanted, and I would choose the same even if I won the PowerBall jackpot.
