What RX would you rather have, more choices

Saw a poll like this, liked it, but choices were limited.

Thoughts:

RX-2-5's - Can mod to your hearts content and not worry about the smog police.
1st Gen - 12A - Most basic of choices
1st Gen - GSL-SE - The beginning of the EFI 13B
S4 NA - The beginning of what this forum is all about
S4 TII - The beginning of the "go"
S4 Vert - The beginning of the "ride"
S5 NA - Stock, considered the best for the least $ to aquire
S5 TII - Stock, considered the best "go" for the least $
S5 Vert - Stock, considered the best "ride" for the least $
S5 Turbo Vert - Considered by experts (me) the best 2nd Gen ever made. Thank God for TII conversions.
3rd Gen - Stock, considered best body styling, best GO!!, albeit a bit over-engineered under the hood.
RX8 - The beginning of the future for the RX/Wankle car.

I put a poll in the Lounge. So cast your vote, and visit the results often. Should be interesting.

Wrecked my TII yesterday, so I'm more seriously looking for a chassis to build....

FIRST pick would be anything sunroofless, probably updated to S5. So a GTUs would be perfect, but that's not going to happen.

S5 turbo OR 10AE I wouldn't be upset with....S5 NA near last on my list.

I guess I can finally say I'm not "going to have" a working AC system now that I'm looking for a chassis to clean up/rebuild then strap my TII stuff to. (The wreck has been only a AC comp clutch away from having air for the ~5 years I've been beating on it....)
