Meh,

Beautiful to look at, but a stock GTS 5 spd with GT cams and a sharktune is quicker and more reliable...

Have to agree with Kibort for once. I would love to have one of those, one of the most beautiful cars ever made.

I've always felt that cars should look beautiful and functional. With the front end draging on the curb, it doesn't look functional, even if it is.

If we are talking the only other car I would want, how about a Testarosa?

I like the Vantage but that one looks soooo good. I love that color, it really sings to me.

It would be nice if the Germans would craft a car (again) with this classic look. I suspect they've changed but, in the early days, English cars were known for being unreliable...mostly electrics. Of course, nowdays, no telling where a car is actually made. My wife's Camry has "Made in China" on a lot of the parts and it wasn't Made in Japan.

I'd have something I could fly a LONG time before putting that kind of cash into a play car I can't drive fast anyplace legally.
