I was there for that Ferrari race also!!!! Sucks that they cancelled it this year, I was really looking forward to it.:nonono:

 

[Whitten]

Yeah FQC was a really an experience of a lifetime. Getting a ride in the Enzo was so freaking amazing I couldn't stop grinning for 3 days.

1984 lamborghini Countach, uncles car. 1986 porsche 911 turbo, dads old car. 1987 Ferrari testarossa, moms boyfriend at the time. 1985 Ferrari 308 GTSi, friend of my dads. 2002 Dodge Viper GTS, friends car. 2008 Mercedes CLS63 AMG, neighbors car.

 

[snake134]

my top choices are the carrera gt(sounda so badass), the f430, and the superlegerra(sp?)

 

[HandoZiZle]

I don't know if you can consider these cars exotics but for me it's : Dodge Viper, S65 AMG, M5, Porsche 911 Turbo. If you're talking about riding in one, then the best one for me would be the 430 Scuderia.

You're pretty lucky, i've never even seen an MC12 in person before.

1958 Ferrari Testa Rossa 250

1959 Ferrari 250GT

1963 Ferrari 250LM

1967 Ferrari 265GTB-4

1969 Lamborghini Muira P400S

1978 Ferraro Berlinetta Boxer

Then in 1981 my friend that owned all these great cars was involved in a plane crash that killed his wife and put him in the hospital for six months. He was piloting a twin engine aircraft that lost an engine on takeoff at about 30 ft. It turned faster than he could catch it. After that he just lost interest in the cars and sold them all.

I list to dream of!:bowdown::bowdown:

[Steeda30]

When you say exotic I will just lump cars that extremely rare into it.

My list of "exotics" driven include:

1965 Shelby Cobra CSX 4066 Reggie Jackson's Car
2001 Dodge Viper ACR
1968 Camaro RS/SS with the prototype Cross Ram intake designed by Smokey Yunick and raced by Mark Donohue in his famous Sonoco Trans-Am car.
1969 Yenko Camaro...several actually
1969 Copo Camaro actually
1968 Hemi Roadrunner (Left the wedding in that)
1966 Shelby GT350 Highest level of authenticity as signed off by Shelby himself
1966 Sox and Martin Hemi Cuda Drag Car
2002 ZL-1 #64 and have been in 1,46,32,...hell almost all of them including #69 Grumpy's toy.
1970 Boss 429

As for my exotic true exotic experience goes I got a fairly unique experience last November that I will let the pictures do the talking.

Nice list. The pics & grin speak for themselves. :coolman:

well i used to drive, park and rag out porsche's. the fastest was probably a modded 03 turbo. 620 whp, i almost pooped my pants, kinda like when i got to drive around in a brand new turbo when they just came out

 

[Fast Freddy]

i drove a Ferrari F430. the car just didn't have enough torque and power for me...... i would rather drive a Lamborghini Gallardo :coolman:

the Enzo and the 599 still rock though :burnout:

 

[mcaligiuri]

have driven a couple older ferraris, 97 911 turbo, nothing too special

that however was a great car to drive, 1500 miles on it and i beat the piss out of it. cost the guy $250,000 to buy it, lol.

 

[Ahbeng]

how the F did you guys get to drive a formula 1 car. I want to so bad...actually thats my dream job.

Yeap. It's not a formula one car. It's a Formula Renault. Lower down the food chain in terms of power, aerodynamics and electronics. But the way it grips and responds to the throttle..... I've yet to drive or experience another car that drives like an open wheel formula car. To put it in perspective, a Gallardo takes more than twice the distance to shed the same speed as this car.
Definitely have to try one of these to complete the driving experience one has in his lifetime.

 

[Blackvenom12]

I valet park at a 5 star 5 diamond hotel, name it and I probably have driven it (within reason) obviously no FXX's ha

 

[NO-BlkLightning2K]

just go to florida and rent one.

 

[Blade Runner]

Hey Whitten, what was the story on the F.O.H. car w/the lightbar? That just looks so, odd, so out of place on a car of that caliber....LMAO....And ya'll said a lightbar looked bad on MY car.....LOL
