I was just on one of those baby's last week!

Electric, get to ram people, don't have to worry about road signs. The best type of cars ever.

Al-ham-du-lillah.

I don't know what this is called, but I like the looks of it.

I forgot this one: the Studebaker Golden Hawk.

But the Capri remains number 1.

Without a doubt, the ae86.

It's light, underpowered, and the oldest car still relevant to drifting.

It's also ugly. The Japanese can not make beauitiful cars. Italy and the UK alone have that ability. America had it once but lost it long ago.

I tend to disagree.

France can do beautiful car too IMHO.

Erm, saying the Bugatti Veyron is "French made" is pretty questionable. It may be litterally built by French hands but it was most certainly conceived in every aspect at Wolfsburg.

Ok, I don't mind admiting that France has it's moments. The Citroen flying saucer was one of the great designs.

Ok, fine, let's play this amusing game so...

-Bentley is owned by Volkswagen, "not a British company".

-Rolls-Royce is owned by BMW, "not a British company".

-Jaguar is owned by Ford, "not a British company".

-Aston Martin is owned by Ford, "not a British company".

-Lamborghini is owned by Audi,"not an Italian company".

- Do I have to continue?

Ah, yes... Ferrari is owned by Fiat, it's an Italian company!! :roll:

I persist and sign, and I had another beautiful French car to my list :

Venturi Heritage GT3

Oh yes... Venturi is now owned by a guy from Monaco... "Not a French company!"... :roll:

The nationality of the owner doesn't make that of the car, it's the nationality of the concepters that say if this or that car is French or British, hence my remark on Bugatti. And indeed it could be said for Bentley, Rolls, Lamborghini..

Things might be different for Jaguar though. They seem to be faily independant, and if they indeed used a Ford platform for the X-Type the other ones may be exclusive. In fact Ford US even used a Jaguar platform for Lincoln.

Anyways, this 'new' Venturi seems to be based on the old GT, which was I think conceived by French engineers, so eh, we have one sporty French car, w00+!
