What did you look for in a plane?

I am interested in building, and i love my choices.

I'm all for building a 4 seater, but i'm sure 99% of the time it will be
just me and or me and my buddy.

Is it better to just rent a "family cruise" when needed and do something
more enjoyable? I'd like to build the Pulsar or the Lancair 2 seaters if i
go that route. Both are fixed gear, fast cruisers with looks to kill.

On the other hand something to put around in and soak up the scenery is
another choice.

Anything good at all of the above?

Ditto what Bob said. You can rent a 172 the few times a year you'll
use it. Build the airplane you'll use most often - and can afford.
