@damnElantra: Perhaps I'd like it a touch closer to Bimmer's Laguna Seca Blue following the side impact test.

Must have gotten into a head-on with a Land Crusier being driven on two wheels. Either that, or it clipped an Impala SS with 4 guys hanging on sliding down the road on their feet at 90.

With a 65 mile range and a top speed of 55, the Ze-0 matched the performance of the a home converted electric Chevy Citation, but without the style or safety.

Good on ya Murilee - keep it going! I love this series and the thought that there's some saucy little mynx with a camera and a passion for old iron roaming the streets of 'meda.

This car offers a sense of presence one doesn't find with a 911. The sound of the engine and that rear three-quarter view sell it for me.

Miatae are stout little cars that take very well to ludicrous increases in power and torque. There's no reason this won't result in a fun to drive, unique hot rod.

@Van Sarockin: Yep, equal length driveshafts. However, under acceleration, my 9000 Aero will pull from side to side with road irregularities.

As a proud Miata owner, I like to respond to the oft asked question of "Why do you drive such a small car?" with a serious look on my face and a solemn response of "I'm compensating".

The rubber spoiler Spider is among my favorite of the series. My other favorites being the early 70's Kamm tails (for their snarly nature) and the 91 to 94's (for their luxury).

Then: The Lancia Scorpion - offering Ferrari style at an everyman price.

I'm enjoying seeing the creativity of some of the teams.

@LTDScott, Porcubimmer pilot: Thanks!

Nice work. The hatch spoiler looks vaguely Cosworth inspired.

This car is almost perfect as it sits.

Wert spake:

@lascauxcaveman: Here's one for ya.

@Murilee Martin: You mean you'll be touching up your makeup, you saucy minx.

Very cool indeed. We need a full inventory tour of Junkman's garage.

This needs to stay Italian. I'd say it needs to be Guzzi'd.

Just the place to use to source and engine for when I make my dream come true of installing a Ferrari engine in an Alfa.
