    That Toyota looks pretty sweet. I've heard though that all markets won't get it as a Toyota though. Since it's a joint project with Subaru the current rumor as that we may get the car as a Subaru. What's your price range for a fun weekend car? Might be a little easier to give suggestions knowing what you want to spend.

    none except for crappy hub caps and floor mats.
    I had a Celica for my first car. That thing was the damned slowest thing I've ever driven. Miserable car. Personally, If I wanted some cheap speed, I am going to have to go against the grain here and say go with a used 'Stang or maybe even a 80's vette.

    ZR1 is too expensive (though the z06 ain't cheap), but heck even the stock model is still quite quick.

    Love corvettes, I'll own one one day.

    Speed does not a sports car make. I think handling defines a sports car more than speed. I would classify those cars as muscle cars. not sports cars.

    The S2000 on the other hand is a cool car.

    This is what I've been reading since word of the car first came out late last year/early this year. US market is only getting the Subaru version. Haven't heard it directly from Toyo/Suby, though.
