just fast enough, wonderful noise, great box, looks amazing and will put smiles on your face.

Some of your comments above have thinking you are looing younger than what i'd regard as a classic. Obvious answer there is a 997 series 911.
Yeah, I'd probably prefer something from the 1980s or 1990s, out of hopes that they be more robust/reliable and still have good repair and parts options.

That said, I'm quite curious about those older Alfa Romeo Giulias. They show up at the local Cars and Coffee quite often. What years or submodels would you suggest? Wikipedia suggests they are 1960s and 1970s cars?

I do really love the 997 C2S and GT3. They are right in my comfort zone as post-2000 models with great handling and power and oodles of feel.

Frankly, I'm looking for an older car which might knock the 997 GT3 off my must-buy list. (The 997 GT3 has gotten depressingly expensive!)
