Gumball experience for me would have to be in something a bit nuts. Like the Reventon idea, maybe a Zonda F or something silly like an Ariel Atom.

Oooooh, tough question. Many cars I would like to drive, but if I had the choice I'd go with... a Ford GT40.



Not even sure I could fit in one and, if I did the Gumball 3000 in it, I think I'd have to be carried out of it, but I bet it would be a hell of a drive!
