If your going nuts then you can count me in.

He has many points.

A). It's a matter of taste, he has every right to an opinion.

2). I love my S2000 and I think it's a great car but lets be honest with ourselvers here folks, at the end of the day it's a car, we'll all sell it one day and replace it with something else.

D). What's more important to people these days? Happiness and good friends family etc etc, or CAR!?!?!?!

3). Is the world really round?

F). What did I do with my red pen?

Peter answering your points inseriatum....

W) It is in the second draw down on the right hand side of your desk.

A) I believe that George W Bush has recently rescinded his right to have a point of view.

N) A good car is more important to me than anything.

K) Round can be a two dimensional or three dimensional concept, please could you clarify your question in terms of how many dimensions you are considering?

A) You are correct, it is just a car, and just a Honda to be precise, and yes it is destind to be replaced!

James, in reply to your thread,

T) Ah yes, so it is. But how did you know?

O)

S) A good car and NOT a great car?!?!?!?!!?

S) A three dimensional object viewed on a 2 dimensional plane.

A) To be more precise it's an S2000, and it will be replaced with an Aston Martin V12.

Peter, to answer your points....

P) I know everything, I am impudent (or shoudl that be omnipotent? - I always get those two confused)

R)

I) The DB7 is a GREAT car, the S2000 is a good car

C) In that case, no it isn't round. Given that the top of Mt Everest is some 8,848m above sea level and that the deepest part of the Mariana trench is some 11,520m below sea level we have a difference of close on 20km. The earth is obviously NOT spherical then

K) I beg to differ but my S2000 is likely to be replaced with a 996 convertible. It is the 996 that will be replaced with he Aston Martin

James, in reply again.......


M) Your not talking about impotent are you?!?!?!

U)

T) Agreed.

H) Your assuming that the part intersecting the 2 dimensional plain includes Everest and the Mariana trench and that it is being viewed from a distance that will give justice to the true nature of the shape.

A) Very nice choice, however I would select the GT2 if money wasn't an object.

Peter,

F) I think you are correct, impotent was the word I was searching for

U)

C)

K) You are correct in stating the assumptions that I have made.

A) I actually think that the GT3 is a purer car than the GT2, however, if money were truly no object, I think I would go with the F355 which I think it absolutely spanking!!!!!

James,


W)

H)

O)

R) Thank-you.

E) I've read some amazing articles written on the GT2 by great drivers, hence my choice. F355 even though it isn't in the same class I have always had a soft spot for Colin Chapman and Lotus Esprit's.
