          What's on your short list? I remember you posting a thread about this a while ago but don't recall the outcome.

            depends a lot on how much i really want to spend on a *car*

                My personal opinion, for whatever it's worth, is to go with either the NSX or the 911 cab. The rest of those things, with the exception of the 360 which is just way overpriced, are just posermobiles.

                  you think the 350z is a posermobile? i think it's very near the S2000 in bang for the buck.

                  SL500, i would say semi-poser (agreed). Sl55 - 495 horsepower, the thing out accerates the newest from Lamo...

                  I guess you don't like the M3 either - i think it kicks ass. I've always love the M3.

                    I like hte M-Coupe and the M-3 sedan, but the cab is weak. Shakes like a dog in heat and weighs too much. I can't stand the 350Z. Weighs 400-500 pounds more than the S in coupe version, has an engine from an SUV and wasn't designed a a convertible. Wait until they add a few hundred pounds of folding top mechanism and frame bracing on that thing. The SL-55, well, I'm sorta on the fence. I know it goes like hell, but I can't shake the image of the plastic surgeon's wife tooling around Rodeo Dr. in that thing.

                      i've driven the m3 cab, didn't see the cowl shake. of course it was brand new...

                      i haven't driven a 350Z, but i'd like to check one out. have you?

                      SL55 - the car is a demon. and as far as german cars go, it's the closest you'll get to japanese reliablity, with supercar ability

                          Friend of mine got a 350Z back in August. One of the first ones on the East Coast I believe. Anyway, yes, I did get to check it out. Drove it too. The power is there down low, but by 6,000 it's all over...redline is at 6,500 and it's well out of breath by then. We ran a few times on the highway (I'm not a 1/4 mile abuser) and I pulled on him every time but 1) my car's not stock and 2) I don't know how hard he was pushing.

                          I know the SL is fast, but in that league I'd definitely be leaning towards the Porsche.

                          The NSX kicks ass. More of that Honda philosophy that works so well in the S.

                            Heh...I'm on Yuengling #2 but I'm fading. I've got a toothache that's doing me in. Maybe it's the Percoset?

                              of course i love the NSX. but the SL55 - it is well, well beyond the league a of 911 Cab. 911 turbo, same league...

                                        yup, very nice. i'd still rather have the 360 though (much of the mas is based on ferrari parts...)

                                          yeah i know what you mean. In the past I would say the 360 too, but since B.Shaw got a ferrari, we need to find an alternative.
