yeah reality bites, but it pains me that no other manufacturers with better funds or resources will build such a car

sub 3000 lbs, beautiful, torquey naturally aspirated engine, manual

I think there is a real market for a car like that

I don't disagree, I've always thought that TVR was a very kool car, I've always liked the uncommon cars though. Not in my future though, I think I'll hang on to what I've got now as my wife wouldn't likely support the price point.
