looking at the list the thought jumped into my head.
how many of those have you ever even seen in the flesh.

I got to 7 out of 10.
Haven't seen the enzo, a veyron or a ZR1
although I could probably trip over a ZR1 and not notice that it was that different.

So the next question would be how many of those have you ridden in / driven?

I was turned off by the first one on the list, 300SL, and it didn't get much better as I went on. Had it been a 300SLR.......... now there was a car!

I was somewhat turned off by Microsoft's plagerism...

I was thinking their description of the NSX was inaccurate in that they said it has forged pistons and I seem to recall that they are cast. Imagine my surprise when I found almost exactly the same description in Wikipedia.
