2010 Porsche 911 turbo with PDK, faster then most everything out there, able to go the racetrack, drive cross country, and can be driven in all types of weather conditions and is not fragile like many exotics.

your title says "ONE", yet you posted two.

I'll take a LP560-4.

In no order:
Porsche 911 Carrera - preferably the newer ones with water-cooled engines, Carrera 4S/GT2/GT3 will do.
Bentley Azure, made alongside Rolls at Crewe, just before BMW moved all RR production to Goodwood.
Lexus LS600hL, just to spite a Prius at the light

I would say either an Aston Martin DBS or DB9! I love them!!! Nice enough all around to turn heads, go to car shows and race around town/tracks but normal enough that if it gets stuck out in the rain while driving I wouldn't want to kill someone. The other cars that are $500K+ are SWEET but I couldn't see using that car as a DD if I wanted to do so...they are JUST TOO PRETTY for that. The AM cars are awesome IMHO!

NO question... a 1930's ford/chevy coupe with a huge crate engine, big slicks and loud as hell!
