Re: [DMCForum] Re: Acura NSX, anyone?

[Martin Gutkowski - DMC Ltd <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Quick synopsis of the Esprit: Earth Shattering speed, less reliable and 
an order of magnitude more expensive than a DeLorean to look after.
NSX: One of Japan's attempts at a european supercar. Superb reliability, 
build quality, but perhaps a bit lacking in character. These are my 
words, I could be wrong :-)

What about the Nissan 300ZX? Did you guys get that? One of the most 
underrated supercars.

Lotus Exige? You guys have got the new one with the Toyota engine, 
mechanically, they're really simple and reliable. Not exacty overrun 
with creature-comforts though but a blast to drive and when you look at 
performance stats, remember it weighs about 700kg :-)
