Cars or bikes you have driven
Enough with the "I saw" threads, what are the nicest cars and/or bikes that you all have personally driven, not ridden in? What were your impressions of each?

i got to practice manual on my friends uncles 911 Turbo. *sigh* i didnt know if it felt great or not because i stalled almost every single time. and when i finally got into first the acceleration scared the shit out of me so i slammed on the brakes. well i didnt get to drive longer because i dont have a license. yet.

Bikes I have ridden on the track:
TZ125
RS125
TZ250
GSXR600
GSXR750
GSXR1000
SV650
R6
R1
R7 with an R1 engine (*drooooool*)
My Favorites: My TZ125 because it had the best suspension and best tuned engine, but I'm probably just being partial since I can run the best on my own bike. My favorite other than that was the R7/R1 hybrid. It is the fastest, most expensive, tuned, advanced bike I have ever even sat on. It had a $30,000 suspension, $10,000 of engine work (for 185+ wheel horsepower).
Cars I have ridden on the track:
Audi 4000
Porsche Boxster S
World Challenge Porsche 911 C4/C2/RS
70's McLaren Roadster
Race Miata
My Favorite: WC Porsche. It was originally a C4 which they converted to a C2 because of the WC rules. They then dropped a 3.8 liter RS engine into it. It was... amazing.
Bikes on the Street:
GSXR600
GSXR750
GSXR1000
Hayabusa
CBR600 F1/2/3/4/4i
CBR900
CBR929
CBR954
CBR1100XX
Vulcan 1500
VTX 1800
Harley Fatboy (I hated it)
ZX7R
ZX9R
Too many cruisers to count
Favorite: CBR1100XX Blackbird. That bike fit my body and riding position PERFECTLY and drove so nicely.
Cars on the Street:
Porsche 993 Turbo
Porsche 996 C4
Ferrari Dino
Ferrari 348
Ferrari 355
Ferrari 360 (with F1 shifting)
Ferrari 512
BMW M-Roadster
BMW M3
BMW M5
BMW Z3
BMW Z8
Every Mercedes with the word "Kompressor" in it =)
Audi S4, A4, A6, A8, TT Roadster
Too many others to think of...
Favorite: 993 Turbo. Need I say more?
If you're wondering how I've driven this many cars... I'm a motorcycle racer and have a chance to ride a lot of bikes on the track. From my track days I have connections with car guys and get to ride a lot of those too. I used to be a motorcycle mechanic at a giant dealership and test-rode everything. I also work sometimes as a valet at various nightclubs and resturaunts and get a chance to park (drive) a lot of exotic cars that way.
