    Btw, our 4c is likely to be a couple hundred pounds heavier than it is overseas due to crash ratings.

    yeah, the 159 nose really gives me a boner. probably both because of the pissed-off look, and because of alfa's infamous "vagina" grille. really wish they'd gone with lights like those on the 3/s. wouldn't be any need to do an "angry-eye" hood if they had.

    p.s.
    the tails on them are also kick-ass. i love them more than supra tails.

    Never will replace, but add to is very possible if I ever finish what I want.

    Possibly an Elise SC may be sought.

    Help them, for they know not that which they do not know!

    Went out in my mates 2012 Nissan GTR today, all I can say is it's amazing!.

    Gearbox is seamless shifting under full power, plenty of poke and the brakes are excellent!.

    Shame they're so bloody expensive..

    Funny to me how that's popped up a few times - even though I know what they are capable of. I've been looking for one for over a year. It will not replace my 3s but will make a fun DD!

    Yea the gas mileage has me thinking hard for a DD, but the sounds/power of a heads/cam package would probably make up for it..

    Bought a 996 Turbo almost 2 years ago now. Wasn't intended to replace the Stealth, but after driving it, I couldn't go back to the Stealth and enjoy it like I used to. Plus, we have a 3 car garage and we needed two SUV's, so between having two sports cars, the Stealth had to go.

    I did test drive some other cars, C6 Z06 (eh), Viper (not good for daily driver duty, too unrefined), Ferrari F355 (not a good value, plus maintenance is a killer). The car I came closest to picking over the 911 was a Mercedes SL600 with Renntech upgrades. Had something insane like 620 horsepower and 750lb ft of torque. However, I couldn't see myself (t-shirt and jeans guy) driving that everywhere. Not old enough, either.

    Just test drove a 12 wrx, I could see that as a replacement. It cost a lot more money than I even have in my 3k so I hope it would.
