A rather odd selection of options ;)
I.e. caterham is included, Lotus not (Caterhams only product is a car which is originally a lotus seven).
Brands like Nissan (anyone ever driven a GTR? That's a real killer!) are missing, too...not to mention the all-american sports car...the corvette ;)

As for fav. Sport car...my problem with most contemporary "sports" cars: they are fat. Anything over 1 ton weight- sorry, thats not a sports car, no matter how big the engine and how great the max speed is.
There are 10 kind of people in the world.
Those who understand binary numeral system, and those who don't.

Fess has got a point there, The classic Corvette is truly awesome the ones they have today the nice thing about classic cars is you can work on them yourself these days you need a degree in electronics just to change the damn spark plugs

another thing missing from this thread would be "whats your favorite muscle car" gimme a 69 Cuda with a stock 383 any day !
Then again if someone wanted to throw a 68 or 69 Road Runner at me I wouldn't turn it down.

@mistof a little off topic, but you might want to take a look at Pogea Racing...currently, they are offering something which should really interest Corvette fans...the tech of the current C6 (including the >500hp V8) built into a classical C1 chassis.
If I had 250K to spare...that would be my car ;)

I would dearly love a fire engine red Corvette. The only problem, is that such a vehicle has another name: "Cop magnet."

Haha, the vette got my vote before I opened the thread to find it missing.
