Let's see today, I can buy a new British ..., ah, um, what is British built that is new today? Lotus Exige S, 23 city/29 highway, top speed 148, 0-100 11 sec, base $59,890. http://www.lotuscars.com/Exige_Spec_Sheet.pdf Lotus Elise, 24 city, 29 highway, top speed 150, 0-100 12.9 sec, base $46,270 http://www.lotuscars.com/Lotus_Spec_Sheet.pdf TVR Sagaris top speed 160+, 0-100 8.1 sec, http://www.tvr-eng.co.uk/specification_sagaris.php Tuscan S top speed 160+, 0-100 8.1 sec, http://www.tvr-eng.co.uk/specification_tuscan.php Can't find pricing for the US. Looks like Pound Sterling 41,100 (4.0 liter) to 46,500 (4.5 liter). I guess I can only have one if I move to England. Good idea, Wolfman, move there and buy one. Today, the Pound is $1.9774 US. So that figures to $81,271 base to $91,949. I would think for an additional $30,000 they could improve the interior over a $50,000 car. Triumph? Dead MG? Dead Ok, Let's include Europe. Porsche. Boxster top speed 160, 0-60 5.8 sec, $45,600 base Cayman top speed 160, 0-60 5.8 sec, $49,400 base I have to agree, Porsche has always had impeccable fit and finish. Of course, aren't these models the Paris Hilton of cars? A lot of look at me but no substance? To get a real Porsche, the 911, we start at the $72,000 base and work quickly up to and over $100,000 base. Hmm, isn't that Z06 territory? Ferrari!! Not that I could afford one if I sold everything I had, but if they work as well as their website, I think you might be walking a lot. I guess the old saying is true, if you have to ask ... I remember that in the TV show Magnum PI, Tom Selleck gave each of the stars a new Porsche as a gift. Seems odd a show that displays the Prancing Red Horse so much would get Porsches, unless there was more stories behind the show about that Ferrari. |

His displayed level of incompetence would indicate even mediocrity is an unobtainable goal for him. |
