TVR T350C. Its not the most expensive car out there and its not as reliable but you dont buy any TVR for its reliability. You buy them for the thrill and drive. For the price of them there are nothing else like them. Brutally fast, the last bunch of sports cars that arent nanny-fied by technology and they always keep you on your toes. They are not easy cars to drive. I like all TVR's though but I like the T350 the most; not as in-your-face as the Sagaris , not as hard as the Tuscan and Typhon but a little more aggressive than the Tamora.
Plus the sound these things make

You want a softer drive? Get a Corolla.
