I get the feeling that this would only work if we could pursuade Ernest Borgnine to drive the Isle of Wight to Portsmouth hovercraft.
Still the last good looking one too IMHOIn fairness he found it rather amusing, he told me that Id have a Ferrari one day too

Hope you didn't mind the prompt Doc.
I think the F40 is purposeful, but comes no where near to the 288GTO in looks.
If we're talking F40, how about F1 as most iconic road car? I say road car, because for me nothing compares to the Porsche 917.

A man after my own heart. The 288 GTO is probably the most beautiful car ever made.Hope you didn't mind the prompt Doc.

Porsche 917 / 30 oh my.
McLaren F1? Maybe but then they spoiled it with variants.
In terms of F1. The Williams FW14B or FW15C . Fully loaded with that Renault V10

Maybe Mercedes. As far as I know they introduce a great number of technologies copied by other vendors.
You might say the Ford Capri was an ionic tuners car, at least on par with Ford Escort but a section of the Capri owners club was destroyed by one member buying a stop-gap car while he looked for a "good" 2.8i. It "will do" he thought, ok it's Japanese, 3 doors like a Capri, so it's got a diddy little 1.8L 16 valve turbo engine. Oh my its got pop-up headlamps and it's a low lower than a Capri! Nothing they had could touch it down the "twisty test track" near the pub they met at, their eyes were opened and the gloves were off.
So someone else buys a Supra MKIII turbo. then there was a TVR, followed by the inevitable 911. That 200SX RS13 spelt the end of the North Birmingham Capri owners club as very soon none of them owned a Capri.
None of the cars needed tuning, they were all that much better straight off the showroom floor than any tuned Ford Capri.
