Re: 2005

the best track performance would be a toss-up between the elise, mr, and corvette. even though the elise is the slowest in acceleration, it handles the corners so beautifully. for the car i would like to own, i would choose the elise, i want two doors, so that rules out the mr, and i want to have something different, so that rules out the mustang and corvette.

Re: 2005

Gotta go with the Corvette. The Elise and Evo MR are great cars also. Not too fond of the new Mustang tho...

The Elise is an incredible car that I've wanted to some to the US for a very long time.

The new Vette should be great, cant wait for a Z06

New EVO is pretty good, but not a whole lot different from the regular Evo VIII

I kinda like the new mustang. Supposedly it has alot of potential and should be an awesome drag machine

Re: 2005

The Elise will win on a track, I'm mighty confident of that.

The Corvette is a scorcher as well, hopefully fuel prices will come down and they'll release it in Europe, might consider putting my name down for one in 3 or 4 years.

The Evolution MR is meh, I'm sorry, but I'm so used to seeing hundreds of Evo's all driven by shitheads ('Cept the really hardcore lot and WRC stars) - but I'm sure it'll be a good car.

Mustang? Pah. Wait for the Cobra.
