I have a fair amount of seat time in Porsche 356s and early 911s. Good cars, and the 356 is absolutely my favorite German car, period.
However, only the Italians truly understand the art of the passionate automobile...
1967 Ferrrari 330 P4. The most beautiful car, ever.
That said I have a Triumph TR3 as my "collector" car, as only the British understand the verities of the small roadster.
