    Faisal (TVRFREAK) has a Cerbera which would embarass nearly any car on the streets (less the F40, F50 and Enzo)- very expensive to bring over but well worth it.

    TVRs have a characteristic burble and backfire on exhaust overruns which will make you fall in love with them. And at high speeds, the engine has a nice shriek, although it's not as nice a sound as a Ferrari V8 at high rpms.

    The Sagaris is BADASS. I am seriously considering getting one. I went to the factory last month and poked around in one for a while. It's simply awesome. The car's still in development, so they are a while away from delivery. But what a kickass car!

    They are only monster loud if you modify the exhaust. And if your fuelling gets messed up, the backfires become deafening thunderclaps. ;)

    There are several vintage TVR's on eBay right now which look rather nice. I've always loved the old Griffiths, Tuscans, Vixens, and Granturas, but man some of them look super small. I know my 6'5" frame wouldn't stand a chance of fitting in one :(
