The Spitfire is one of my absolutely favorite cars of all times. I wish they still made a modern version of them... The one is sick.

Hey champ!
Wow, finally a Spitfire with none of the three main things that should turn any rational person off of a Spitfire; the transverse leaf that makes the car take bumps like ass (and sag causing overly mad tyte camber), the glass transmission, and the unreliable and just plain underpowered engine.
If only they had replaced the ladder with a space frame, but that might be a tad excessive seeing as though when all is said and done it's still just a Triumph.

That's fantastic, although I don't think the shifter sits in a very good spot... too close to the seat (at least it would be for my long arms)
