Yesterday, I bought a BMW M3 CSL and took it for a ride 'round the 'Ring. To me, there is something magical about driving an M3 on the 'Ring... even though it's virtual :) it feels good, it looks great in the replay, it's almost as if the two were made for each other. :odd:

So, that's why I thought of this thread. Do you have a 'magical combination' of a car and a track? This is not about laptimes, bhp or mph, it's about the undefinable magic between the car and the track...

So I'd go for:

The 'Ring - BMW M3 CSL
 
Any Aston Martin anywhere (Costa di Amalfi is a good one).

Alfa Duetto at Citta di Aria.

Any Group C or LMP at Grand Valley.
 
Peugeot 205 T16 at Scuba Wet!

Absolutely made for each other. The Pug becomes a natural drift machine in the wet, especially with... *thinks*... N2 tyres.
 
Honda S2K(any model) on the Ring,or Tsukuba,
Trueno @ Trial mountain.
 
Ohhhh, i thought this was a thread about Paul Daniels and the lovely Debbie McGee! :(
 
i think the BMW M3 GTR fit to the Nordschleife very good. its just amzing how that car flys over there....and also the mercedes clk touring car on the ring. Ma 2 favs.!!
 
Suzuki GSX/R-4 at any track. Fully tuned and lightweighted with the right gears, it is capable of beating JGTC cars, so it must be able to beat a DTM car as well. I've got a 4'13.000 around La Sarthe I, topping out at 180mp/h.
