Yeah, but when it is all said and done, you will still have a car that to most people still looks like every other Corvette from the past decade or so. They are great machines and very well made, but almost "too" common...

If I could afford it, here is my dream vehicle. I drove something similar quite a few years ago but as you'll see the price is a little much; and that's in American dollars . Pretty cool though! Link That's amazing. Very cool indeed.

I think you'd fit in my trunk rather well.
Okay, so it's not as scary when you know I don't have a car. Actually that makes it even MORE scary! Unless he's an elephant ...

Oops Typo, I did mean the WRX. The turbo lag can be fixed, improved even, with a quick chip swap. I agree though, the last few years don't look nearly as nice. Too plain. I like a sleeper car concept but they did tone it down a bit too much.
A Miata is my least favorite looking of the currently popular sports car. I know it's a great running vehicle but I'm not digging the look at all.
If I were be retardedly rich and assuming I live somewhere other than P.E.I. where the paved roads are as bumpy and full of holes the lunar surface, I've always had a soft spot for the look of a Ferarri. Ya it's almost boringly, stereotypical now but I always loved the visual lines they come up with in their designs. An Enzo would do nicely.

...P.E.I. where the paved roads are as bumpy and full of holes the lunar surface.... Sounds like Calgary's roads as well.

All of North America it seems.
I refer to our road craters as "looking like the streets of Beirut."

You guys need to move south - without snow to wreck our roads, and excepting a few, like I-95, the roads I've driven in Georgia and Virginia are A-OK.

Yep, it's the water and subsequent freezing that pops the asphalt. Any place that sees lots of the melting/freezing cycle gets to look forward to many of potholes and with our runs of warm and then cold during winter, our roads are always in a state of disrepair.
