So tomorrow (later today, early morning) a few of you will live vicariously through me. I'm headed to the south shore (new orleans) with my dad who enlisted my help in buying a car.
All the people who posted stuff about miatas, s2ks, mustangs, etc. are out of luck.
The rest of you who suggested Porsches, Audis, and especially Mercedes will get a report in the near future.
As it stands now things haven't changed much, Pops still wants a SL550. Hard top, all the techno gizmos, rear camera, etc.
However, I've done my best to convince him that he needs to drive other cars in the price bracket and so we will be going to other import dealers.
Looking forward to reporting back,

btw, famine,
It's more fun under 65, harder to overcook, easier to recover if you do, less likely to get you tickets, less likely to be keyed and less likely to be stolen.
The others are just fast.
Fun under 65, less likely to get tickets, and keyed, I'd say are all opinion.
Harder to overcook, and easier to recover are relative, especially with some of these insanely awesome cars, and well, the stolen part I can't argue.
(though the stolen part is being nice because stolen is also relative to where you keep the car and what sort of security you use)... Just saying.
). Others think it's best to max the budget and run a slightly used supercar, very cool but too expensive IMHO.
