I have always shied away from imports (Euro or Asian), but I've been growing warmer toward BMW and Audi.
Porsche, Ferrari, Jaguar have always had a special place just because of what they are, but I honestly have no love for the 911's VWish looks. Audi still has some butt ugly deigns though, but their drive-trains can't be overlooked.
The only Japanese car I would ever consider would be Lexus. I just simply do not like the others.

Honda [i]did[/i] kinda take Ferrari to school one time with the first gen NSX. We can talk or not talk about F1 engines but that first gen NSX was hot fire.

I liked the original NSX, but I wouldn't go as far as to say it was overly powerful. For a quad valve V6, yeah, it was good, but it still had less than stellar 0-60 times. I know this is a bad comparison, but my quad valved '13 Focus 4 banger has a better 0-60 time. That's the only stat it will ever beat the old NSX in, but still.

Ferrari F40, McLaren F1, or a 1st gen NSX? For the sake of conversation the NSX could be after the refresh in the late 90s if that would make a difference to you.
