The most fun I've ever had with a steering wheel and 3 pedals
I'm currently babysitting this for a friend.

If its not the most fun you can have driving a car, I really dont know what is. 1% creature comforts (it has a radio and AC, but why youd turn on the AC is beyond me), 99% ***** to the wall. There is no inbetween. I think the only way I can describe it is... an Adult Go-kart. I might be in love....
My only complaint.... It takes forever for 7000RPMs to come around (waiting for VVT to kick in)... once it does.... light shines down upon you from the heavens, the angels start singing... and you're gone.

Its an Exige, and I dont think the point is to go in a straight line... there's a few cars I'd rather go straight in.... but not too many I'd rather drive the winding roads in...

which Exige is that? 190 or 220?
(its not the 240/260 because those have larger roof scoops, u know the stuff ricers love)
the new 240s are pretty insane, the 260 is off the wall.
thats my 2nd choice car ill be getting after i get my careeer going.....
but first choice......... ATOM FTW!!!!!!!!!
