    Besides a Ferrari. Ok, my sister is selling the Viper. What a piece of American muscle to claim. Ah, an Lotus Elise is purity. BMW Z8, 911 turbo, NSX, or a Hammer something? What do you have your eye on for under $100k?

    Yet another one of Karen's OT threads posted in the "Ferrari Discussion" forum. Karen, take a look around the site. There are other forums here besides "Ferrari Discussion." For the umpteenth time, please use them.

    That will be a great car. I would second that. I like the 99+ Lotus. The NSX is fantastic, but maybe not fast enough for you. A comptech SC can make the car a lot more fun around town. A 911 GT3 is one amazing car too. Probably more fun than the turbo on a track.

    04 Sl55 or 600 depending on tastes. Both can be had around the 100k mark with very low miles.

    I would go for an Elise.
    If you can't handle an Elise then go NSX (style) or DB7 (cache).
    That's what I would do.

    Not to be rude, but in addition to what Wayne said, she started the same basic thread about 4 months ago:

    You think a colored man, driving a sports car, is unfamiliar with that?

    All great choices. A Noble M12 GTO-3R or the Noble M400 would be a good choice as well. Check out there American Distributors website here.

    The AMV8 will be over $100k out the door. The base will be around $115k. Less than a year ago I picked up an '01 996 Turbo with 6k+ miles on it. You can find some very good deals on used 996 Turbos, well less than $100k.

    It's very difficult for me to understand her posts; they seem to have odd syntax and form. I have a hard time telling if this is because she is so cool and talks with great internet swagger or if she has trouble with English.

    Noble M12 GTO 3R definatly. Its probably the best car under $200,000 also.
