Perhaps a K series engine with stop/start technology would have been the ideal way to go?

If you had the option of not having a hybrid engine, and instead having a k20 or k24 mated to a 6 speed with lsd, this would be great! Smaller and lighter then the SI. And better looking. I really doubt anyone will buy it, but its nice to see Honda looking in sport(ish) direction with their hybrids.

This car looks nice. You can just picture it with two flag of some random country you've never see flying on hood, with a red licence plate, blasting by people on the freeway.

Benz + nice AMG style wheels + lowered = pimpin. This car is a classic from every angle, the only thing that really dates it now its not having HID headlights and led tail lights. During the day it looks at home even with the latest models.

The best deal if you're going new in the power sedan market is definitely the new C63 amg. It looks dirty, its much cheaper then the higher end models of benz, or something crazy from Jaguar or BMW, and its really fast to the point where you really might crash if you're not paying attention.

I like this car but for me, if you're going Shelby for your dream garage, its gotta be the Daytona Coupe. The lines on that thing are just SO SO sweet. You still get the ridiculous side exit exhaust, the front looks better, and the back is sick.

What I ment about the transmission thing is why don't cars have transmissions like motorcycles? On a bike you don't really need to use the clutch, just lift off a bit and pop it in. I'm sure it would be more reliable then straight cut gears (no synchros like the F1).
Anyone know why? A bike transmission seems pretty easy. 1 N 2 3 4 5 6. No gears to "miss" just go in order. Am I missing something? I saw a vid of a Caterham with a R1 motor or something and it was just so badass I thought of this.

This thing is so beautifully engineered. Its really one of those almost perfect things that man has created. Kind of like a Glock hand gun, or the Hoover Dam or something like that, I dunno. This thing just gives me goosebumps!

PS. I believe your car is automatically bad ass if it has a sequential gear box. I've been wondering a lot lately why more cars don't have them?
