I REALLY hate the Viper
it's such a tacky POS...
just because it has a big engine doesn't make it any good, it's a shame people don't realise that...
I do like the Ford GT
Though I'd just like to point out that it's not an all-american car, even though muchspl2's post claims that
On a given day or given circumstance, you think you have a limit.
And you then go for this limit and you touch this limit and you think "Ok, this is the limit".
As soon as you touch this limit, something happens and you suddenly can go a little bit further.
With your mind power, your determination, your instinct and the experience as well, you can fly very high.

I'd say the Tuscan S PWNS the 'competition', wouldn't you?

Not sure why but the Tuscan just works for me.
As to how practical the beautiful polished brass buttons on the dash are for day to day use - well who cares. The designer looks like he has had extended periods of alien abduction and has returned brim full of ideas.
I am just going to have to wait until I win the lottery - which I suppose means I ought to buy a ticket for the thing now and again.
