Oh, let me see ... 1970 Camaro. 350cc and 300 horsepower. 130 mph before I had to let off the gas and take the twisties on the back roads in collage. 1967 Mustang. Motorcycles. Mazda Rx7 (way too much fun). More motorcycles except this time 100+ cc Kawasaki Concours (loved it since it came out), but swapped it for a 99 BMW R1100RT & K1200LT. Cars at this point were just transportation and motorcycles were it (1) for me. I followed up this set qith a 2009 R1200RT (sweet) and then downsized to a 2005 R1200RS. And then ... I bought a Boxster instead of a new motorcyle. Even more fun than the 2 wheels and almost as much get up and goo (feels like). Maybe if I put a 3.6/3.8 L in it or buy an S model it would have the same get up and go.

What I like most about it though is the tunes during a twisty ride with the top down. When the right song is playing and the car is performing just right and the RPMs are in the 4~6 range it is just awesome!
