Ya, well Stafford Fab is building me a VTEC twin turbo with ported heads, dual exhuast and an intercool from a Mack truck for my vibe which is similiar to the Lotus Elise, so that means it can handle like it's on rails. I'll eat it.On a side note, it looks kinda long. Not really into the design of it. Too much stuff going with it for my likings....guess Mercedes ins't gettin' any of my money...

Of course! I'll have the fastest Dodge Omni GLH you've ever seen! It would make that skinny-nosed German look like an AWD Vibe! J/K!

Nice car. The problem is, after spending $400,000, Mercedes comes out with a new SLK with the same front end, and then next year, refreshes the SL with THE SAME FRONT END. If I bought the SLR, I'd be pissed.

For $425,000 I'd rather build my own car from another car like an NSX or something.Futseal, that's quite a suprising vehicle I know it'd suprise the hell outta me if I tried racing it on the street.

NEW NOBLE SUPERCAR .... Noble, the British sports car manufacturer has introduced a new supercar called the M14, which the company said it designed to compete against Porsche's 911 Turbo and Ferrari's 360 Modena. The car, which will cost about $138,000 when it goes on sale in October, will take over for the M12 as Noble's flagship. According to Globalauto.net, the M14 will use an adaptation of the M12's Ford-sourced, twin-turbo 3.0-liter V-6 engine, which will be good for 400 horsepower in this application.

Holy @#$! With that money I'd pay off the house buy 6 cars and go on a trip, way too much money but if you've got it to burn then I'd take the truck.
