^ one of my all-time favorites too. Steve McQueen had one.

exact, and it was sold recently for more than $2M. i remember trying to make top 10 of cars, i don't think it's possible when you're an auto lover. maybe top 10 by categories...

anyway...

As for angles over curves, I'll take a BMW M1 please

PS: NSXs were more known for their handling capabilities than their outright speed.

PPS: The 3000GT was one of the most ahead-of-its-time vehicles in the 90s (and its sister car the [1996] Dodge Stealth was the lowest production car from a major manufacturer in the 90s). All wheel drive, all wheel steering, active aero (only recently being seen on supercars), hard-top convertible (first since the Ford Skyliner), electronically controlled suspension, tuneable exhaust. Heavy, but one of the most underrated cars, not many people know about them but they still manage to turn heads which is nice

Late additions:

Dodge Tomahawk Concept (not really a car but it has an engine larger than what's in most cars, 8.3L 500-hp V-10 Viper engine in a 4-wheel motorcycle with independent suspension for each, approximate top speed of 300mph, and a sticker price of $555k [apparently it was available for purchase from Neiman Marcus?]

And also the Cadillac Sixteen Concept (13.6L 1000hp [unconfirmed, naturally aspirated] V-16 engine with active fuel management [uses 4-cyl in most instances, 8 during strenuous driving and under full acceleration open up the full 16] a pity it was/would have been paired with a 4-speed auto tranny)
