    That thing was such hot **** when i was a wee lad. I still remember getting a giant poster of one and assembling a model of one for my room. Love that car so much.

    I agree it is/was awesome. I was a little disappointed when top gear did a piece on it and said it was awful to drive though.

    Take top gears assessment with a grain of salt. In their comparison of the 350z roadster, Chrysler crossfire and Audi tt roadster, two of them gave the z bad marks because the exhaust drones (it doesn't) and because the bose stereo comes with a subwoofer, which to the British, is only for highschoolers and wankers. The Audi was beeloved, even though all 3 of them remarked how utterly boring it is to drive, because it was quiet and had nice leather.

    I agree that Top Gear reviews can't always be taken seriously. I love the show to death and the hosts as well, but in all reality they are just regular guys that like cars and got into a very wonderful career. By comparision, Fifth Gear would be the show to turn to for actual reviews done by real car enthusiasts.
