Piper Saratoga with Garmin 1000 panel. But I'm only saying that because I
just checked out in my flying club's Lance. Otherwise I'd probably choose
a SR22.

Since I don't like side sticks, I'll have to say: Piper Mirage

Absolutely, positively, without a doubt, the Socata TBM-700. 300 knots, 700
horsepower... *sigh*

Oh wait, you said piston-powered? Nuts.

Well, I guess that leaves the Malibu Mirage...

Likewise with the side sticks, but the Mirage is too fussy for me.

I'd go for a 1992-94 F33A with a TATurbo TurboNormalizer hung off a
Millennium IO-550 engine, pulse oxygen system, and a Garmin 530 based panel,
and a few other tweaks. I'd add GAMI's PRISM system as soon as it's
certified.
