Well if it had to be a japanese car I'd get a GT-R. If I'd get another sports-y type luxury sedan I'd probably go with a different brand just to add some variety to the mix.

I don't like sticking with the same brand, I enjoy variety.

Honestly I'd like to try out the AMG class of Mercedes. Perhaps an SL 63 AMG. I'd go with the 65 AMG but I cannot afford that one.

I'd also like to give Audi's R8 a go before I die.

really boils down to what you are looking for out of the car.

If you are looking for a fun car to drive that looks great...get the NSX! I had one and the car was great. Not the quickest car on the street. But the car handles like no tomorrow

If you have the need for speed then I say the GTR.

GT-R.

I'd also like a 370Z with a turbo kit.

My driveway might look a little like this:

I havent owned a NSX or S2000 but I do own a GTR and ISF currently and can tell you the GTR is leaps and bounds different than the ISF in everyway. Its amazing how different and more powerful the GTR is over the ISF even though it is about 70hp more. But since my wife drives the ISF mostly It is a joy to get in it every now and then. Its really a great car too. I love the smooth power delivery and lexus quality.

Of course I'm biased because I had an s2k but I'd say a modded S. With a supercharger and some great suspension that car was great!!!
