The temperature is perfect, and the sun is streaking through a series of small but fluffy dark grey clouds. The road snakes ahead into the jungle, devoid of traffic and holding the perpetual dew that seems to hang everywhere on these tropical Hawaiian islands. Later on, you'll hit the beach and tonight you'll be bar hopping in Honolulu. You take a deep breath of pure humid air and reflect: Nothing in the world matters right now, because you have the perfect car for your situation.
What are you driving? No limits on money or rarity or anything else, just your ideal car for a day in Hawaii.
Edit* Post pics with your car.

Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SuperVeloce AeroPack because that's one of my favorite cars at the moment and Oahu's got a pretty good selection of roads that suit that car I think.

I'm thinking Ferrari Daytona Spyder:

1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB California, that car would most defiantly be my choice. I think this scenario calls for a convertible.

I'm not a big fan of really hot and humid, so something with air conditioning would be nice. Something nimble that would be fun to drive fast but also comfortable and refined.

Having driven in Hawaii in a convertible I can say it really doesnt matter, as long as it has no top. How can i possible say this?
Easy, i drove one of these:
and it was perfect. I was perfectly content with its lack of power, horrible ergonomics, cheap interior and horrible driving dynamics. i paid no attention to the car when the top was down, as i was completely floored by my surroundings.

The last time I drove a Wrangler, I decided it was a washing machine on wheels. I'm sure it's great off-road, and it looks cool for sure, but on-road it's crap.
