I would love an Elise, If only I could fit into it. Has the highest $/power ratio. A lambo or a top class audi would be nice.

the genre was track car, you must be going to some shitty tracks, if they have speed bumps and pot holes. also the atom can go over speed bump easily.

also i kinda just googled ariel atom for that picture, but after looking into it, that is a new version to be coming out soon. It is a 500hp V8 atom, let me say it again, a 500hp V8 ariel atom.

Lighten up.

I don't know what is loser about having the money to buy an expensive car anyway.

i) a luxury car

Aston Martin DB9. Technically it's labeled as a "sports luxury" car.




ii) a supercar

Audi R8



iii) a run around everyday practical car
BMW M3
My next car


iv) a convertible for the cruising around in
I don't care for convertibles, but I do like the F430 convertible.



v) a track car
I would take this over the R8 as my supercar.

Pagani Zonda
This car is nuts.

You should download them on torrent or something. Last time I was in the US I watched it on tv there and they had cut tonnes of stuff out of it. A lot of the chatting between the three guys was gone, and thats what makes that show so fun to watch as they have really funny interchanges. Great show, download it, and the specials too, especially the north pole one!!

really? I watch it on bbc america, and i dont think they cut anything out (i hope not!) The chatter between them is definitely what makes the show, besides the insanely retarded challenges and the most incredible cars in the world. I love british humor too, so much more subtle, clever and witty than (most) american humor.

The fact is if you plan on buy any car or moding a car, your throwing away money.

lol. A car is a hell of a lot more of a status symbol than anything you mentioned. Plus you actually get more for what you pay for. A $30,000 watch tells time just like a $300 watch.

a $250,000 car drives a heckuva lot better than a $25,000 car.

If you have the budget, and Aston Martin DB9 is leagues above both of those. Not as expensive as the Vanquish and pretty much as good in every department.

What do you mean by generic? I love porsches, and I think they are among the most beautiful cars in the world (not to mention the terrific handling).

Not to mention that a person that makes $300k a year can much more easily afford a $100k car than someone making $30k can afford a $10k car. But the person making $30k will still buy the $10k car and then complain about the other guy spending too much money.
