Lancia Delta S4 Rally car driven by Henri Toivonen.
I mean, it could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.3 seconds on a gravel road.
Group B Rally cars are very amazing cars.

Lamborghini Countach!
Well, now it's going to seem like I'm just being a lazy bastard - but mine is the Countach as well!
The McLaren is a close second.
I was at Wrightsville beach a few weeks ago, and I actually saw a Countach driving down the street - it was definitely the highlight of my trip. I had always admired them, based on models, pictures, etc., but seeing one in person driving slowly down the street was just an unbelievable experience - and I'm not even a car freak.
They stopped making the Coutach about 15 years ago, if I'm not mistaken, and this thing still looked like it was straight out of a science fiction movie. Truly a spectacular automobile.

Yeah, that's really an amazing, 'out of time' car. Another of my favs is Renault Alpine.
Well, a random bit about Countach.
The name comes (and I never expected anything like that before just casually finding it out) for a word of the Turin dialect. Totally nonsensical in Italian or any related language, it prolly means 'oh my shit!' or something like that.
Story says the chief-worker in the Lamborghini factory just exclamed 'Countach! Alè propi bela!' (Oh my shit! That's really good!) when first saw the just-assembled Countach prototype.

Lotus Esprit. I don't need it to go underwater or shoot missles or anything, though. Growing up, I just always liked that car, and there were a couple owned locally that I'd see from time to time.

Maybe if I get the SRT-10...
Don't matter though, you've got to park sometime. Then we'll play monster truck derby.

Too bad the Countach is one unaerodynamic piece of shit that only makes up for that with an insanely powerful engine.
