I myself am a fairly simple man, I had a Grand National in High School but I'd take the '87 GNX over anything else out there.

Enzo's are sure nice but a little inpractable for nearly every day use. Specially in this country. Service costs are absolutly astronomical. But if you have the $$ to own one that is not going to mater.

 Kiwi the GTV has an impressive open road speed allright! Estimated 230-240 kph. Which is fast for our roads! Shes a licence blower!

Depends on the KX, my R1 is rated for 2.7 0-60. I'm sure I can't run it that fast? I'm pretty good on a launch so it feels better and after all the work, my KX could actually pull it to close to 90. Then my R1 hooks up hits the powerband and is gone. It is going to depend on your gearing, engine, swingarm for the KX. I had to extend my swingarm just to keep the front end close to the ground to be able to launch.
