Can't think of any automobiles. The old fashioned netjets would do. I supposed if I had to choose then Land Rover only to get the new school Defender body on a vintage chassis for United States use. Not much of a car guy but fun topic. I can tell a lot of guys are reading relishing in the thought.

This got me thinking. I wonder what their endorsement deal entails. Is it strictly all $$$ or does it also include free cars? It would only benefit the automaker in giving away the cars so that people can actually see the athletes driving only that car.

It's like in the NBA and sneaker endorsement restricting athletes to wear their competition brands.

I'm sticking with my porsche/tesla answers but I wish I had thought of Ferrari. I'm surprised not many lambo fans out there.

I'm sure some get free cars.

No way anyone is ever restricted to driving just one manufacturer, don't think anyone would agree to that without serious money getting thrown around.

I'm a lambo fan, would love to own one, but very impractical. I picked Aston Martin for several reasons, but I also think they make the sexiest cars out right now.

I believe they get cars too. Kaymer currently has the S63 Coupe and Rickie has a custom orange G Wagon. Both are sponsored by Mercedes.

Actually, the Gallardo is a surprisingly easy to live with car. It's also probably one of the most affordable exotics out there to boot (though the maintenance is brutal as it is on all exotic cars). All wheel drive, decent stereo and navigation, you can even fit the groceries up front in the trunk. You're not going to take it to Costco, but if you have the nose lift system you can pretty much take it anywhere else...

 

This is me walking my mother through the shifting process before a drive. She still prefers a big body sedan, but if she can handle it anyone can. :-)

Might as well go for broke and get an SLR Stirling Moss!

How about a different type of choice? Would go with Foose Design, then could have quite a few unique vehicles.

Assuming that the car maker would provide me with a model that's in production right now I think it would have to be Volvo. Always liked the XC70.

If I could have any model from their history it would have to be either Aston Martin (DB5) or Porsche (964 RS Clubsport).
