So many cars, so little time, way too little money!

While there is no substitute for a Cobra, I like the idea of a Lotus Elise. The Euro version is very Spartan. (Which is one of the things I revere about the Cobra.) It is extremely light and takes very little horse power to motivate it down the road. It has the open canopy to capture more of the exhiliration of speed. It definitely lacks the intoxicating sound of an FE though and the aggressive stance/appearance of a Cobra. Still...

If BMW had built the M Roadster with a more minimalist approach, that would be a great car.
