the beetle is a round car on the platform of a golf IV. the jetta is a golf II with a long ass.
Sorry, I got the VW models mixed up. Anyway, you get the picture; the design had nothing whatsoever to do with the original Beetle; it was just a facelift upon a recent front-engined model.

hmm..
Ferrari F355 Berlinetta ( uncles, red) is fuckin awsome. Specially since its in Croatia, and the cops just gape in awe of the car, and don't worry about catchin him
Ferrari F550 Maranello(uncles, silver) the ultimate cruisin car. Faster then the Berlinetta, but slower acceloration and worse handling. Perfect for highways(note that the accel and handling still fuckin own, just not totally fuckin own)
Acura NSX(Dads, red) HOLY FUCKIN SHIT that was the sweetest car. All red, none of that shitty red with black top. Twas a targa, too. Roof down and HOLY SHIT was it fun to drive, in westchester county where there are highways to go everywhere. Too bad he sold it **Sniffle Sniffle** :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(
Porshes just look gay, get something original. I hate thier lines, it musta been built with the ugly screwdriver.
Audi a4 1.8T is also nice. Has huge accel, pretty cheap too. Lighter then 2.8T and S4, so handling is better.

This is dificult, so I"ll list the contenders to the title...

Audi UR Quatro
'69 MACH 1
mid-80's Jaguar XJ6
Lotus Esprit (with the 4 cyclinder twin turbo, not the newer v-8)
Dodge Stealth R/T Twin Turbo
Austin Martin DB-8
There is no problem to dificult for a signifigantly large enough quantity of C-4 to handle.

I'm actually not joking (not entirely, at least) about the Edsel. Within a few years I plan on buying a '58 Edsel (doesn't matter which kind, though I'm hesitant about a station wagon). It's just too cool.

I perfer to own small utility Trucks (work) and Compact cars (Personal transport). So my tastes run rather to the Spartan side.

On the other hand, I do LOVE my uncle's Jaguar, handles so fine, his place out in Arizonia has no one else out there for miles, so you really can turn her loose. mmm V12

I like the mistsu too, but I find the Stealth to be just a little more appealing to my eye.

Just did a Google image search, and you know something? I didn't realise just how different in appearance the Stealth and the GTO are. Tasteful. :)

I couldn't agree more. :D That's why I bought the Stealth over the 3000GT. The Stealth has totally unique styling. I have never seen another car that looks anything like my Stealth. (well, except for a couple of mid-90's Ferarri's, but those are OK to look like :) ). It truly is an awesome car, especially considering I only payed $5500 for it.

(note: 93 R/T non-turbo).
