whats the best handling car you have ever driven?

preferably driven alot so that you have a more valid opinion.
please expand on it too, ie say if it had non standard suspension and tyres etc.

The S2000 on standard suspension, rear end happy as it was, it was easy corrected (in the dry) and loved powering out of corners
