i think i would take the 911 GT2 with its 477hp and 472ft-lbs from that list. the ferrari F430 was a close second but i like that the porsche makes a bit more torque....cant wait to see the 997 turbo

The 360 Modena has always been my dream car. I don't know if anything can replace it as my favorite. But the F430 does come in as a close second. With it being the replacement for the 360 I was very critical at first, but over time I have grown to really love the car. Since the 360 wasn't on the list the F430 was my obvious choice.

The AMV8... because the rest are either completely devoid of charisma, or are just expensive (and rather naff) phallic symbols.
The AMV8 isn't too expensive, isn't too flash, isn't cliche in a footballer/nba baller/drug lord sort of way, but is still elegant enough to turn heads, charismatic enough to be proud of, and has an interesting company history.
Oh... and it's the only brand that doesn't have people who look like twats walking around the high street wearing the company's licenced branded shirts, caps, shoes, laptops, and what not.

F355 for me. As Dani says, it sounds and looks stunning. If the GT2 in question was a 993 rather than the bloated 996, i would have chosen the Porsche.

OMG how can you say that!!! the 355 has no charisma??? come on...that car has more charisma and passion than all of the others put together...
I'd love to have a 355 Berlinetta, rosso corsa, 6 speed manual, sweet sounding V8...ooohhh, someday I will spend a ridiculous amount of money to rent one for a week or something...it's somthing that is written on my "before I die to do list", or if in 30 years I ever get an extra 60K - 80K to spend...I will get one...

996 GT2!! Sound is absolutley awesome and just has some kind of odd hold on me. Porsche is an awesome company and even though i don't know nearly as much about them as i do BMW, but i do know they haul ass and handle curves better than ron jeremy 8)

I kind of was expecting the 430 to beat the DB9 but come on the 355 beat db9?
DB9 is much more useable and prettiest of all the cars named there. It gets my vote.

Dam thats a tough tough choice....
My ultimate driveway would be a Ferrari 360CS n a DB9 but a 355 is so very tempting
Wouldnt go GT2 in a million years - probably one of the fastest on a track and in a straight line but just doesen't do it for me
AMV8 is an amazing car but i'd prefer a DB9 over it anyday
Gallardo probably has biggest road presence of those listed but I just think the interior lacks soul and is a little too Audi - gorgeous engine though.
F430 is a faster drive than the 355/360 but the 360 and 355 both look and sound better.
DB9 has gorgeous engine and probably the best all rounder along with the best looks but maybe not engaging as the fezza's...
I'd take the 355 with a capristo/tubi please

F430. The 355 would be my second choice and the GT2 the third.
After seeing a few videos of the F430, I'm "sold"...
The looks, the power, the sound, the handling...I could go on...
The 355 is also fantastic... One of the best looking and sounding cars ever made. Already a classic.
Tough I'm not a big fan of low reving (relatively speaking) turbo engines, the GT2 should be one hell of a drive!

Actually, the Ferrari fell under the phallic symbol category, not the devoid of charisma one.
