Default Caparo T1...

This thing is just outstanding. Haven't read enough to see anything about price but I'm sure it isn't cheap.

I can't even imagine how fun it would be to drive this thing around town... hehe.

It's a cool ride. I just read EVO's writeup about the car today, and they wax lyrical about it, and then put some real perspective to its real statistics, and its not as amazing as it first seems (though definitely still one of a kind, and surely better than anything else short of a real F1 car). It was a good article. They didn't really get to drive it, for several reasons, so they had to do the best story they could with the very controlled track time they were given.

At $300+k it of course isn't cheap, but it's quite a bit cheaper than the F1 was and still is.
