I saw an orange lotus sprinter today. I always thought I would be the one who drives a car that nobody has or wants to ever drive cause it looks so weird and stylish.
Guess, I was wrong. This guy was probbally rich cause he had 18" chrome wheels and a nice babe sitting with him.  it looked like this but it was in orange. Damn wish I was rich. Still can't believe the MR2 are these guys cousins. |

"Who cares if it doesn't perform the best?, it turns heads." To each his own. I'm much more of a preformance guy. But not as inteligent as some, seeing as how I bought a Celica. It has a good deal of potential though. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy

[right][snapback]346924[/snapback][/right] i know your a performance guy, youve said it countless times. id get the elise not only because it looks unique but it handles very well and not to mention was the quickest car in the report. the reason it earned the lowest rating was because of road/engine noise, lack of comfort, poor visibility, pedals too close together, etc. so dont think i only care for looks, it about balance  i wouldnt like a car that leaned to heavily to either extreme.
