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. |

...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 ing sexy. B-Body Dodge Charger plz.
edit // Or an early model Challenger. |
