what was that one game series where the entirety of the game was played within a car that had built in weapon and a few modes it could shifft into (car, hovercraft on water, I think it flys in a newer one, and a motorcycle form when the main armor blows off.) The word "spy" is in the title.

I have to say though, Ferrari at least in the past had better styling than Lamborghini. The 250 GTO, 288 GTO, and Testarossa all show this. Still, I guess I've never been all into flamboyant Italian sports cars. I prefer the more subtle lines of the Porsche 911 line. It's not as flashy, but you can be damned sure everyone knows it's a Porsche. Though, the car that I'd most likely have the money for (as it is far cheaper than any of those others) would be the Lotus Elise or Lotus Exige. While they aren't even in the same class, they are amazing cars and are a testiment to their British designers. Also, I realize the irony of my earlier statement about bold design when it comes to the two Lotus, however, those are a good fifth the price (or even less) compared to the Lamborghinis or Ferraris, and I feel the demure size of them also offsets the more wild stylings they might have.

I second the Lotus. Fairly affordable, they claim legendary handling, and they look great. A Tesla Roadster would also work (essentially same body; just swap the gas engine out for an electric motor).

I'm starting to save for mine this year. If I'm lucky I can buy one outright by 2030. :wacko:

There's a guy south of here that has a silver Exige. When I saw it that is when I realized just how awesome it would be to have one. Apparently one of the largest Lotus dealers in the Midwest is here in Ohio.

Ah, yes, the Efijy. I'll admit that it has class for sure. It's too bad the rear is so far over the rear axle, I imagine that would make it difficult to handle when backing up.

Apparently one of the largest Lotus dealers in the Midwest is here in Ohio.I can only remember seeing one in person on one occasion, sadly. I believe it was a yellow Elise. It was a horrible day up until I saw it go by me in the opposite direction.

Nissan GT-R (R35, though I love the Skyline R-32's and R-33's as well. R-34 had a butt-ugly front end, in my opinion)

Honourable mentions go to the Audi Quattro ('82, I think?), Honda/Acura NSX, and Aston Martin DB9/DBS.

That car pictured by the OP is the Lamborghini Reventon- a limited-run (even by Lamborghini standards) supercar. I think Lamborghini originally said they'd make 21- 20 for customers, and 1 for the Lamborghini Museum. It looks like it's going to be an incredibly exclusive car, much like the Ferrari Enzo. If they did stick at 20, it'd actually be more exclusive than the Ferrari FXX, and you can't even drive that on roads once you put down a payment of £1.3million ($2.5million) as it's not road-legal, and only for use on racetracks.

Let's see, large electric gocart or a precision piece of Italian or German engineering with an actual roof and sides. Gee, that's a touch choice.

I've never been too impressed by Korean cars though. Most are pretty ugly which probably accounts for my dislike. Of course, this weird "Back to the Future with Chrome" phase in the American automotive industry right now is producing equally hideous vehicles.

Kia/Hyundai seem to like trying to look like Mercedes a bit too much. I am not a huge fan of most of Mercedes' designs. Also Kia/Hyundai don't have some of the things I'd like available in models I'd buy.
