Ya but they are DAMN cool! I was going to get one in 2001 but wasn't able to fined a VR-4 at a resonable price. I'm hoping new year I'll add one to the fleet :P

damn heavy, i have the january issue of SportCompactCar magazine and there's a Sick spyder in it! but what really pissed me off was that they compared that model against a skyline, supra and an integra...i think the spyder is meant more for bell and whistles instead of speed like the coupes!

Bad image for us...

just bad representation...
I'd rather someone in a 93 tt 5speed with 400hp BPU represent us than that spyder. just my 2 cents.
