Favorite we've owned, or general favorite? That I've owned would be my CSVT (I'm lame...), but my '90 S10 with a 400 smallblock dropped in was pretty cool, too  . Favorite in general, in strictly due to rarity and coolness, would be the K1 Attack. 
'98 Contour SVT - Please pardon our dust, under heavy construction.
'96 Escort LX - Pretender to the throne.

Favorite all time, I'd have to say, would be a T-red E0 SVT Contour. I'm obsessed about these vehicles, no doubt. However, I happened upon my current favorite at a Toyota dealership not one hour ago. 2004 Mazda 6s, steel gray, black leather interior with sunroof, spoiler, and (of course) five-speed. Too bad it was $20,000.

How's it drive?  You could always offer less (private party value instead of dealer). Check kbb.com or edmunds.com for values. The 6s has the V6, am I right?

 Lotus Esprit V8. I know there are better performers but for some reason I have always liked this car.

Haha ... my budget is about half the price they're asking (that's another story in itself) ... no amount of haggling or anything could bring it down that low  I didn't drive it, they were closed at that time.

Original classic Mini Cooper S.
I restored a 1979 Mini 1000 with my grandad a couple years ago and that was a hell of a lot of fun,especially when we were done.
I'd love to pick up another Mini one day and go nuts on it.

Very well. The suspension is too soft, but easily remedied (though expensively to get what I want...)
On my own favorite... there are are several cars I love... but only the RX-7 convertible tempted me enough to go back into the automotive past and buy it.
