Burnt orange Lotus Elise with black trim and gunmetal rims. This guy at work got one in all silver. Holy shit it's so hot.

nice...I just saw one in all gunmetal, with black rims this weekend. The guy either just bought it or kept great care of it, 'cuz it just looked perfect. There's also a guy somewhere around here who drives a bright yellow one around. A bit over-the-top IMO, but still...

As for me, I'd go with the good ol' Jaguar XJ220.

porsches have insane handling too. i drove a 996 carrera about 5 months ago. damn that was fun. the harder you push the gas the more that rear end squats to get traction.

Handling > Power

I hope someone @ GM reads that.

...and the reason why I'll probably never buy an American car. They just don't get it. I can't imagine why someone would want a Pontiac (except for kingcharlesj)

I don't get the appeal of American cars either. The classic muscle cars, however, are fucking sexy. B-Body Dodge Charger plz.

edit // Or an early model Challenger.
