All very nice cars and that's a cool comercial but I have to go with one of these. Even the base model Elise for 47k.

the two main reasons, I like my sports cars tiny and even though I can't aford it,  the price is low enough for me to think I might be able to someday. :)

i watched a program about Enzo Ferrari a few nights ago on history international. one of the cars that they filmed for the show was a 250 gto. Man, that sound gives me wood even thinking about it now  :D  nothing in the world sounds like a ferrari does it?
