Sounds fair.

If I were in the market for a $45-50k sports car, I'd have that at the top of the list.

And the production numbers are low for a reason, like hand assembly of the engine, etc. Not to mention the fact that the low production numbers mean the car will hardly depreciate at all, and probably eventually surpass its original value.

Hmm... a new $45-50k sports car. I'd have a different selection at the top of my list.

Hence the "Displacement" comment.. huh ALM ;)

400hp, good brakes, fairly stiff chassis, a well tuned suspension and a low C.G. straight from the factory is pretty hard value to beat. 8)

You also just described the S203, with the exception of the fact you have to get 400 hp out of it with a little exhaust work and tuning. Back to apples and oranges. Plus, there's the rarity factor. It's like the "King Of The Hill" ZR1s. a C6 would run rings around one, but which one goes for $100k+? Anyways, C6s friggin rule. I wouldn't kick one out of bed for eating crackers. ;)

Edit: Besides, I'm a moderator for an import enthusiast bored and you work for a premier aftemarket domestic tuner... the world would cease to exist if we ever came to an absolute, no-holds-barred agreement when it came to cars. :P

Didn't we already give them LV in the cease fire agreement anyway?

I'd rather have a fast problem free car. I really don't need the extra mullet attraction factor either.
