... and found this. Now, I would point out I don't really have much intention of buying it since the insurance was more than the car, but surely that's a lot of power for the money? What's the catch with these beasts? I realise it's pushing on 20 years old now, but still. Was the NSX that much better?
Since I'm procrastinating anyway, what else should I be looking at on the 'trader? I've got that new car itch and I'm looking for suggestions. Criteria? Sporty, moderately quick, preferably reliable, pretty? Not diesel. Other things I've looked at so far, just to give you an impression of my wildly varying tastes:
335i (Coupé, but I'd go for a saloon in the right spec)
MX-5 (Didn't fit
)
GT86 (As above...)
M6 (hey, it was only £19k...)
RS Clio & Megane 225 -- Liked the Megane, Clio was a bit spartan on the inside. But not really sure I want a hatchback...
LCR / Golf GTI -- They're so very meh.
Now, the reason I ruled a lot of these out is that I'm still torn as to whether I want to spend a lot of money on something really nice, or try and it keep it under £3k or so (I'd basically break even selling my current car at this). Hence how I came across the 3000GT -- 3.0-3.9L under £3k. There are a lot of S-Types for this money...
