Toys still take time and effort. The idea of a toy varies widely from person to person. What do you want from your toy? Speed? Handling? Comfort? Showiness? That kind of stuff really determines. If you want straight line speed start with a RWD V8 powered beast. If you want handling and racecourse level play, get soemthing AWD with a turbo that you can tune. If you want the creature comfort for nice relaxing drives in the woods. Something like the Jag is in your wheelhouse, but that thing is a nightmare still. If you just want it for nigger reasons to show off to others, go for the most expensive thing you can buy... I have several toys outside of my daily drivers. I have a BMW 550, and an Audi TT (MK1), both are good for their own things. I like to take the BMW on long relaxing rides. I love to rip around corners in the TT... That BMW will never handle as well at that TT, that TT will never be as comfortable as the BMW. Both of them are fucking money pits, even with me doing most of the work. Daily drivers I look toward Toyota though. I want reliability as my first option in those. Sure they aren't exciting, but they go A to B, every day, without hassle.
