or this?
Bugatti EB110
The EB110 is no sheep in wolf's clothing. Complimenting the heavy set styling is a mammoth of an engine. A quad-turbo, 3.5 litre, 60 valve, aluminium and titanium V12 sits to the rear of the driver. This incredible engine delivers around 560bhp and 450 lbs/ft of torque to the road via Bugatti's unique four wheel drive system, with 73% to the rear wheels and 27% to the front.
With an 8,200 rpm limit, the V12 works its way up to 3,500 rpm before the first of the four IHI turbo chargers gets up to speed. From then up the rev range the remainder of the turbos kick in one by one. This can propel the 1500 kg car to 60mph in a mere 3.4 seconds. Top speed is 214mph which at the time of it's launch made it the fastest production car in the world.

how much is that thing?
And I think I would want the [B]G35 Coupe][/I] before the 350Z, .... I like all the luxury you get for the same price!
Plus the engine can be just as potent.

Actually, this is a bit high. The 210HP Auto will start at $25,700 while the 250HP 6Spd will start at $27,200.

there are still many different drawings and ideas about what it will really turn out to be, and be called.
But supposedly it will be in competition with the new NSX, etc. So that's not even close to the 30k price range we were talking about.

we're supposedly getting an IS430 too, but that is competition for the M3 and the likes, ... so I guess the price tag on it will be up there as well.
I'm amazed at how the car market has done a 180°!!!
... oh yeah, and what's wrong with a MK4 Supra being on your list!!!!???
