Nah, he needs a C6 Vette. Done.
Or, if he's feeling a little red around the neck (hell, I'd drive one) - the RAM SRT/10, complete with hilarious review about pussies and their sensibilities. :lol:

Still, C6 Vette FTW.
I'd also venture the G35 Coupe... but only if he's into modding for big power. The new G35 Sport 6MT will go 0-60 in just over 5 seconds, but it's not THAT fast in the grander scheme of things.
He could buy one, decide he doesn't like it and then sell it to me at a good discount! :D

Corvette C6 or Z06 (Best Bang for the Buck)
Porsche Cayman S
Jaguar XKR (if you like that sophisticated look but not really a car enthusiast)
BMW M3 (I know 4 seats but it's an unbelieveable car)
Wait for the Audi R8 (coming out soon)
New Audi TT
BMW M Roadster/coupe
BMW 335Ci (Twin Turbo 3 Series Coupe)
Nissan 350Z or G35 Coupe
It all depends on what he's looking to spend. The cars I named range anywhere from $45,000 to $120,000. Also depends on what type of sports car he likes.

you say he's wealthy, looking for an impractical 2-seater, and to be realistic.
And then you say don't mention Lutus.. which I think means Lotus in ad-speak.
So how come not a Lotus Elise? it's just a bangin' fun little 2-seater. Sure i see a lot of them, but I personally like them over the corvette..even tho the corvette is probably the better bang for the buck.
otherwise, I'd go for the saturn sky over the solstice (and they'll have a redline version as well)..
and... BONUS!!! you couldn't really carry a set of golfclubs in either unless they were belted into the passenger seat.

I like the RX8 ;)

rx-8 isn't particularily slow (it's a pretty nimble car, and sounds awesome to rod the piss out of)... but it's been fraught with problems. (ie, total engine recall on EVERY SINGLE ONE EVER MADE)..

What about a Aston Martin V8 Vantage they are a very expensive rare breed of car.
another rare machine that would be on my list would be a Maserati GranSport Spyder

the only car out of the bunch I'd have a hard time getting a credit application through for would be the corvette.
I thought you said this guy was wealthy?
and for the money of the corvette, he could get a Lotus..
