I just visited a Carshow recently and the best stuff I saw there were the
1) Saab 93 Viggen tuned
2) Mazda MP3/Protege 5
3) Lexus IS300 (hatch or sedan, and it comes with a STICK NOW!!!)
4) Accura RSX (which is the new Integra in japan i think..)
5) S2000 (250 Bph, 6 speed, redlines at 9000Rpm, 4cyl.. wait.. four cylinder? duuuude thats a lot of power to weight/size ratio!)
6) Corvette C5
7) Audi S6 Avant/S8 (too bad neither come with a stick)
8) Porsche GT2 (its number eight because they didn't let you sit in it)
9) Jaguar (or as they now pronounce it 'JAG-Goo-Waahh') XK-R (the back seats are made for legless people)
10) (these actually should be higher on the list) M3 convertable/ M5 (when two tailpipes will do, four will be better
)
11) Tim Burton's Batmoble (couldn't sit in it.. sniffle sniffle)
12) The Maxima 3.5 and Altima 3.5 (very very nice)
13) Subaru WRX (i've already driven an Imprezra (2002) 2.5RS, so i knew what to expect).
yadda yadda yadda, just random information.
I REALLY WAS UNIMPRESSED WITH THE NEW CIVIC Si HATCH BACK (a because i really hate the new civic, and b because the shifter blows). I really liked the 99-00 Civic coupe Si.
