You're given 1 day with the dream automobile of your choice. Money and other factors are no hindrance. What is it and where do you drive it?

Thats a tough question ... So many dream cars. What about this? Porsche 550 and I would take it to somewhere like deals gap.
Probabaly would spend all day deciding what I actually wanted to drive. By then it would be night and I'd be stuck cruising Woodward and getting revved at by the endless parade of DSMs and Mullet-mobiles.
I would like a Ferrari 250gto and a day at "the ring". Even if I never get the car above 5/10s, I am sure it would be a white knuckle adrenaline filled ride with a car that was actively and seductively trying to kill me
Tough one. I like EvanB's choice (both car and location), but I just watched Cannonball Run II last night with the fiancee & remarked how the Lamborghini Countach figured prominently in my childhood/teens. And I'd have to decide track that I've never driven or open roads out west somewhere.
No doubt in my mind, Jaguar XJ220. The day would start with a hearty German breakfast in Nurburg, then a few laps around "The Green Hell" before I continued on to end my day with drinks on the Mediterranean in Monaco.
Audi Trans Am at the 'Ring. I would lap that sucker for 24 hours straight!
If it had to be a "street" car, put me in the 911 RS 4.0, same place.
While an AWD 911 would be better for my skill level, teh RS 4.0 is, well awesome!
I'm going to start in Natchez, MS and take the Trace to Franklin, Tn. Since I don't have to worry about speed limits, it'll be a blast. 2012 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder, in blue.
I want to say running this at the mille miglia, but the old version, not the modern one or turn it loose on the green monster.
a little throwback to a car and a time where drifting through a corner meant something else that didn't involve "style" points.

I know it's not the right one.. but grow a mustache and drive it around Hawaii.
Man, I know the location. The Nordschleife. Which is a good reminder of how lucky I am that I've been there...
But the car? The car... What's so awesome that it fulfills a fantasy, but not too insane to spend a whole day lapping in? Or do I change the location to a track I could come closer to learning in a day so I could focus on the awesome car?
What the heck, it's my daydream; I'll go with the tube-chassis, mid-engine VW Fastback I haven't built yet.
Something like a Ferrari 458 or Porsche GT3 RS.
Spend the morning at The Nordscheilfe and Nurburgring.......then around lunch time head over to Spa-Franchorchamp for more lapping.

That's a hot and dusty path!
...and "beans, lots of beans, son."
Geo Metro Convertible... To the shark lounge.
Seriously though, Ferrari F40. I would drive the pacific coast highway in it. Now that is what I call a good day!
