I keep seeing that comment (but not necessarily in my threads 
) - is it from a book or movie or something?
I'm guessing it means "...and some day pigs will fly" or something along those lines.

Cars are getting heavier and heavier as manufacturers keep adding things left and right not only to please the consumer, but to please the various governmental agencies around the world.

I'm with you on that. As stated in the first post, I don't think they'll hit 1600 lbs - that's 400 under an Elise and an Elise is BARE. Heck - you're almost as light as a Caterham 7 and that has a lot less bodywork, a small (tiny) chassis, and dinky wheels and tires.

It's from American Pie, the movie (the first one that came out several years ago).

In my defense, I did watch "Free Willy" on my computer with my daughter a few weeks ago. She's only three and she got all sad when they put him into captivity and he started his "crying" sounds. I don't think there were any lines worth quoting in there, unless you occasionally break out into a slightly shrill, keening sound when you are home alone in the swimming pool or something.

i tought there was going to be an actual SAAB version of the Sky / solstice?
as for that audi, i would imagine they would have to put quattro on it. 2000 lb car with 4wd sounds really fun.

Its the Opel GT (they get the turbo version only) Why someone chose a Kappa car to photoshop into an Audi I will never understand.

mid 6 0-60 times? screw that, I take the Sky Redline.
A reasonable analogy would be S2000 vs. BMW 550i. The BMW will be quicker in a straight line, but the S2000 will be way more agile and fun to drive than the much heavier BMW.
