Since youth I have been fixated on the Ferrari 275GTB/4, so I'd have to try
that out. Admittedly not your most practical daily driver. With that kind of
moola an E-Type would certainly join the mix. And perhaps one of those
Zagato-bodied Aston Martins. And a Lotus Elan. But I find I can't get
excited about anything from the era of electronic engine management/antiskid
braking systems/full-time four wheel drive. So chalk me up as an OF...

Oh, I should add I would probably drop about 10 G's on my poor B to get it
up to a presentable #2 condition... just sentimental, I guess.
