was gonna get one but sooo damn expensive but they cater it towards what you want which rocks...nearest dealer is bert smith in palm harbour area...very nice car though...hard to describe you gotta drive one...also i love its very unique design! in and out
What's expensive? They average out off of the site at around $20k for one with a decent setup... or are the dealers raping buyers for them since they are so popular?

My dad brought me back a book with all their options. They have one for sale at Reeves in Tampa- used, black- Supercharged.....

27k!!!! bwahahah

A standard one is supposed to be about 16-17k, and a supercharged one around 20k

I'm gonna wait a while for one.

My dad even liked it, fuckin amazing.

Anyway-

the standard one:
114hp 5-spd

(s model) supercharged:
163hp 6-spd

Of course they come in auto, but i've heard the 6spd fuckin rocks.


Going to test drive one in a couple days.. like Monday. Also, they are in very high demand. You can pick the color of your roof, the bonnet stripes on the hood, the big glass roof is awesome, half of it opens and you can still see out the rest. You can get an American, British or Checkerboard flag on the roof, no additional charge according to the dealer.

Also, you can get the navigation system.... and lemme tell you what, electric blue and silk green own you.. seriously. but green is only standard and the blue is only for the S. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
