^ See my perfect one would be a V12 base, with styling more towards the V8. Dont like the grills and vents on the bonnet tbh.

Although saying that, Im kinda nitpicking  ;D

Depends. If its limited run sports cars then Aston Martin v12 Vantage but if you are talking mainstream and avaliable for under £30k then an Alfa Brera gets me going. If we are going classic, then a 1971 Chevy Nova Yenko in hugger Orange gives me that fizzy feeling!

For an older car I think the TR6 rag top and Triumph Stag T Top is a contender

Production car? I suppose so, technically. Mass produced? Define "mass".

(http://www.cargurus.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/ferrari-250-gto-3757-gt-nick-mason.jpg)

For values of "mass" between 38 and 40.  :y
