to me, it's not just how fast is a car, it's how it feels too

I LOVED driving a Lotus Exige S for example, which is not a supercar, not even close. so I am not a brand whore, I just would like to enjoy the car when I drive it, and not just show it off.

Wouldn't it depend on what you were buying the car for? For example, my GT2 was crazy fun feeling...felt like a race car driver every time you got in it...but I hated driving it more then 20 miles...only looked like a cool daily driver. I don't think Scud's should be topless, & Spykers are ugly...but Lotus' are a lot of fun. But only on the track...imo...that being said I haven't driven a 458 either, so what do I know?

It would for sure depend on what I'm buying the car for, but a supercar for the most part would be something that I would just drive the crap out of, and then put to sleep

being able to afford any of these cars, I would invest in a nice little comfy DD (that can be upgraded to a big badass comfy DD depending on your budget), and I would buy a car that gives me an amazing adrenaline rush every time i get into the driver's seat

Depends on where you drive too, I drove a lotus on Saudi streets for a week and it was fun, of course driving that small beast on the track was an amazing experience

I don't think I will be able to afford a REAL supercar for the next few years of my life because I'm arranging my finances, and I will try to keep my debt level at 0, but I will get a porsche whenever I feel comfortable putting myself in that position

oh, and about the spyker, I hated the old model, but I like the latest facelift, it's still a weird looking car!

Cars are unique to every individual, some are great for people some are not practical. Does that mean everyone has to follow one guide line? No. A car should be based on ones liking and feel and I think everyone should respect ones opinion, if someone doesn't like the 458 then cool, onto something else. That's why I love cars because it's one thing in life where it can represent who you are and what your taste is, if you're a hobo you have a donkey carriage (I'll consider it being a vehicle), and if you're Mr. Ritz you have a wild and crazy super car or if you're chill you have a VW bus to listen to peace anti-war songs. This topic has no "win or lose" outcome, it's a bag of no where, haha.. idk how I got the analogy of donkey carriages but hey it works.
