    Re: Poll: The Two Best Sports Cars

    The very best overall sport car of all times is , with no doubt, the Carrera.

    Nowadays, if I'd have to choose, the best sport car is, by far, the Ultima GTR (2 seater). Not really practical for a daily usage, but a really "Spot" car.

    For those "everyday" purposes, and at least for me, the Vantage V8 (IMHO much more enjoing than a 977 because it's beauty and style) is the one I want for my mornings and afternoons.

    For a 4 seater......difficult to say....but my dreams are on the "RAPIDE".......

    Re: Poll: The Two Best Sports Cars

    Factoring cost , best two seat sports car for the past 18 years in the US is the base Mazda Miata/MX5. You can get one for as little as $20K new with a lot of dealer incentives and practically give away financing since they are no longer " the latest thing". Rear wheel drive, excellent handling,sporty interior , nice sounding motor and it's a convertible. Lot's of aftermarket stuff for the " mod squad " types, lots of clubs and organized track/autocross events . too, which is an integral part of enjoying a true sports car, IMO.
