Does anyone have anything uncommon that they love?

We like the BMW M2 but would have to buy the old body style. Problem is that it looks like every other a$$hole bmw on the road.

Tried to drive the new Nissan Z but the dealer wouldn’t let anyone drive it (felt like I was 16 looking at Trans Ams again!)

Can’t find a Supra to drive, liked the Z4 convertible that is similar but not much room at all.

Found a green 2022 Mach 1 with 7000 miles on it that is nice, but it’s a mustang.

Preferences are:

Automatic
Sunroof (really surprised how many sports cars don’t offer this)
Sporty/unique
2019+
Reliable as it’s for my wife.
2 or 4 door
Convertible okay

So far nothing in our price range has jumped out as cool or fun, I guess the Nissan Z did.

Any suggestions are appreciated
I really like the Mercedes Benz CLS63S. Very sporty and unique. It’s a twin turbo V8. I think they stopped making them in 2018-2019. They run 11.6@122 stock and with just a tune have dipped in the 10’s.


The Cadillac CTS-V is a pretty amazing car as well. Sporty, luxurious, and very powerful.
