Welcome to the IHoP

So you're saying easy to drive fast and driving pleasure are mutually exclusive?

Nope, saying that when you are 6'7" it isn't easy to fit into cars that are light and nimble. Making light and nimble luxurious and comforting and fitting my body seems to be exclusive.

Don't get me wrong the M5/550i are fun to drive, but just not at all like the experience you'd have in a Lotus.

I fit comfortably in the 400, so I would imagine the 600 would be fine :)

Not really a "kit" but perhaps the closest thing I'd be interested in

Glider kit is still technically a kit car :P

Yamaha/Ford SHO engine and transaxle would be flat out awesome in that thing though

Wish it were a Ford transaxle. Piece of crap Mazda box was normally mated to the SHO.

Took me a min to compile this but I think it makes sense....

Anyone who wants... chime in.

Get ready for many more minutes. My questions will go on for a while, but in the end you'll get what you need :)

I appreciate ever question. It helps me to focus, and narrow down without waste. Now you get 2 beers too.

We should have a beer shaped chicklet system.

Especially the new T56 Magnum with the 2.97, 2.10, 1.46, 1.00, 0.74, 0.50 gear ratios. 12.2:1 final drive in first gear and 2,100 RPM @ 80 MPH :D

assuming 4.10 gears and 26" tires, obviously

Winnar, looks like some nice gearing for a road car :)

We meet in underground parking lots

And late night in coffee shops

With voices low unless we’re drunk

We've got hats and cop sunglasses

We question all that is wrong

We discuss conspiracy

Are we enemies of the state?

Or idealist bourgeoisie?

I’ll get this one, put it on my card

I get frequent flyer mileage

And a booklet of upgrades

So next time I visit the third world

I won’t have to fly second class

The people's revolution is gonna be a podcast

We took the bus to the anarchist book fair

I left the hybrid at home

I scored an extremely rare signed copy of the communist manifesto

We protested the G8, got maced by female police

In hot black uniforms and boots

I got one’s e-mail address

Still I’m waiting to see if my bid on eBay was enough

To get "Today’s Empires Are Tomorrow’s Ashes" on soviet red vinyl

It’s going on the wall next to "Tubthumper" and "The Battle Of Los Angeles"

Of Los Angeles
