I think the enzo is ugly as sin. Maserati did MUCH better with the MC12. The Saleen s7 is alright. If you gave me one, I wouldnt complain, but they're no where near worth the money. I <3 the Koenigsegg since i saw it in PGR2...The list is as follows.
10> BMW 850csi
9> Shelby S1
8> Noble M12 GTO
7> Porche Carrera GT
6> 2006 Chevrolet C6 Corvette
5> 2002 25th Anniversary Lotus Esprit
4> 1980 BMW M1
3> Koenigsegg CC V8 S
2> Maserati MC12
1> 1992 Pantera GT5-S Targa
The car I am drawing, as I mentioned in an earlier post, has characteristics drawn from almost all of these cars.

call me stupid, but if i had the kind of money to buy any of these cars, 49% of me would want one of those, but 51% of me would still want a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona

I really dont find the s7 appealing. I dont really care for the way it looks, and from what I heard, it isnt the best handling car in the world. Doesnt turn too well, i've heard.

if i had that kinda money i would have a mint condition 91-92 formula powered by a supercharged, head/cam ZZ572 backed by a badass 6-speed and a 6-8 inch cowl so as to hide the blower with a complete rally-bred suspension with shocks that can be easily adjusted to drag settings...then use the extra money for the 12 inch lifted 04 silverado 2500HD

<~~Rode in one of them a few years back. 426 HEMI two fours, and a 4 speed tranny... enough torque to make grown men squeel like little girls! Not to mention that theres the potential on the high banks to hit over 200 MPH

Very nice. I like how it's fast, has a supercharger, and has all the things a race car would have (easy to access suspension tuning). The one thing they need to do is lighten up the steering effort. From the looks of it (and the sound) the steering ratio is lock to lock in just over 1.5 turns. Our FSAE car had that last year and the drivers arms were jello after only 23 minutes. If they wanted to go crazy on the car (like they already have been) they should put a gear box inline with the steering shaft. This would allow for the bruit strength road feel to be turned into a daily driven ratio for those nice road trips.
I have to say it isn't as nice looking as the saleen s7 but it's definatly more attractive than the ferrari and lambo mid engine variety.
