Some of the cars on that list cost over three times what the others do...how can you compare an Aston-Martin DB9 Volante to a TVR Tamora? For Example.

You've listed the SL500, XK8 Convertible and the 650i, when surely the SL55/65AMG, XKR and the M6 Convertibles are the natural choice (Closer to the price of the DB9 Volante)

Can we just put a little more thought into our polls please?

And why didn't you choose the Aston, 007?

I'd probably go for the Gallardo Spider (with a manual 'box) (although I'd be forever wishing I'd had the cash for a Murcielago Roadster, I adore them), Or the F430 Spider, if I wanted to avoid that feeling.

Had to go with the TVR, although if I were buying a TVR a Tamora wouldn't be my first choice.

I'm in the same boat...I'd want a Tuscan S.

However, if you chose the most expensive car on the list, you could sell it and buy a Tuscan S and a Cerbera (for when you have to have 4 seats ) and still have some money left over.

Disagree STRONGLY. Compared to the TVR Tamora, the Gallardo sounds like a dishwasher. Even the Murcielago sounds like a dishwasher in comparison to the Tamora. Watch Evo Car of the Year 04 ... *drool*
