What a beautiful car, I love the classic shape of that car, one of my all time favorites...
More so I really want a S4S, 300hp from the factory 4 banger... that or maybe the one james bond had in the spy who loves me was it?

Man do I ever have a sweet spot for the TT V8 esprit, unfortunately they are not very friendly on the wallet. <img border="0" alt="[crying]" title="" src="graemlins/crying.gif" />

I agree totally Ian, I will own one, just not a new one. I love the lines of the S4S, just a perfect shape that remains largely unchanged just like a 911.
I also want to get a caterham 7 just to have for a year or so. Cant wait to see the looks as I pull up to work in one of those

What about the Super Light R? or the megabusa? or any number of the other super 7 replicas? There are so many great ones out there.
Just like the early lotus esprit, a super 7 varient will grace my garage at some point. I think that is driving made so pure, 1200 lbs of engine, seats and brakes.
Alought my list of car I must own is getting sort of silly long...
The box fendered cars start the list...
951
e30 M3
Audi Coupe Quattro (sport if i'm a millionare)
Skyline
Subaru 22B
The rest
Lotus Esprit
Lotus Super 7
RUF 996 Turbo R
911 C2 Turbo (have a line on one to buy in a few years)
911 RSR
904
Lambo Muira
F40
288 GTO
Tuscan TVR
RS Cosworth
Lancia Stratos
R5 Turbo
Audi RS4 (or RS2)
And a dauer 962 just for fun...
Almsot forgot ENZO as a daily...
(Lots of Group N rally cars in there, Quattro sport, R5, Lancia, Cosi, and 288)

I must be the only one that hates Lotuses.
But one interesting thing, It's got Weissach plates on it.
<a href="http://www.weissach.com" target="_blank">www.weissach.com</a> <- that's where I get most of my parts from for my 951!!! Only a few blocks away from my apartment! In VANCOUVER!
How did the Lotus get from up here to down there???

I drove a brand new Caterham 7 around for about an hour one day with Brian Buxton (www.buxtonmotorsports.com) and fell in love. You can touch the ground by putting your hand over the side, you are eye level with trucks tires, it handles on rails, all the while everyone stares like you are a madman. I loved every minute of it and decided that I would definately get a used one to play with one day.
Ive got a stupid long list of cars I have to at least own one day, realistic ones first...
VW Corrado
911 SC*
968..turbo'ed
Audi S4
911 C4 (92-94)*
Mazda RX7 (3rd gen)
BMW M3 E46
Caterham 7*
1979 930*
Acura NSX*
Supra Turbo (late)
RS America
Lotus Esprit Turbo*
1994 911 turbo
1997 993 turbo
Ferrari 348
GT2
959
962, Hell yea Ian!
there are tons more, but ya get the point. the ones with stars are must-owns, no questions asked before Im married with other things to worry about
jeez, there are so many more its not worth posting
