OT: Which car is hotter?

Okay, you have the $ to buy a Maserati Spyder or Porsche 911 Cab (both convertibles, for those who don't know).  The question is, which car do you think looks more appealing/sexier?

And ladies votes count double...

Prior to being an escort, I had the Porsche 911 turbo, and I would get it again. I passed 11 cars on PCH. My only claim to fame.

it or just have your mechanic play with it?  If it's the former, go with the Porsche.  BTW, Targas rule!

The Porsche is meant to be an every day driver. It is engineered for performance and reliability. Mine was never in the shop. I put 65k on it in three years. I did not like how the top worked, but it was do-able

The Maserati, the Ferrari, the lotus, etc are maybe a little sexier, but way more temperamental. My Testarossa was almost too sexy. I rarely drove it. I could go from 0 to 100 in second gear though.

The woman analogies are way to tempting, so I will just ask, what are you looking for in a car? They all have their advantages.

Good question.  It's not an everyday car, just a nice weather car, say 6000 miles/year.

I've driven both, both have enough speed and handling, I'm just trying to decide whether to stick with the more reliable car, of which there are a million on the road (thus nothing unusual or impressive), or the more unusual/exotic car, which is beautifully styled but probably not as reliable.

Get the hottest car out there. Hell with reliability.

I still get hard thinking about my testarossa.

When it comes to sexy sports cars, the Italians have it hands down.....the Ferrari!!!

Every time I go down PCH in Newport Beach and pass the Ferrari dealership, I get more excited than normal.  Drivers beware.

How about the classic Redbird (shown below) vs the R44 ( http://www.nycsubway.org/perl/show?5710 ).  The R44 has that mid-century modern thing going.

I think a Ford 250 turbodiesel is where you should be headed.  Rugged and ready for anything.
