    I thought JK was car mad! I love the variety and he has more European vehicles than American ones. I particularly like the fact he has two Muiras and one is a SV!

    I started reading up and finding out about S800s last year. I would like one too, and if the NSX was sold, getting a simple old car this would be the next thing to do. I've done 'fast', but now this kind of thing appeals more.

    Bozwell on S2ki is in the process of putting an S2000 engine in one, now that will be a scary fast car.............

    There was a stripped out, racer version on ebay once. It had a big Kawasaki engine in it. Still did 0-60 in 3.something secs.

    Wasn't exepensive either. Should of got it and frightened others on track days.

    You want to scare track goer's then this is the one you want ...

    I've seen a few coupes but its the convertible I'm after. No hurry so will just keep looking. That one of Leno's sounds superb with the different headers and exhaust system!

    I put a bid in for good measure

    If it weren't for the credit crunch, and the fact my wife would cut off my balls, I'd consider the lovely red convertible for a summer cruizer
