I found the comments of the previous guy, Hayward B. Oblad from North Salt Lake, Utah, HILARIOUS! quote:

The Lotus Exige nobly acquitted itself against the Ferrari F430 in your very interesting comparison "Do Rich Guys Have All The Fun?". Unfortunately, the racetrack you used was pretty long and has five (!) straights and several high-speed corners. Why didn't you take the cars to Lime Rock, where there is only one brief straight and the rest of the short track has tight corners? In the end, for $200K, you get a flaming red, leather-clad dragster that requires a computer to prevent self-immolation. Such a deal! Really, the reason anyone spends such ridiculous money on a Ferrari was explained by the preacher when only chariots existed: "Vanity of vanities, everything is vanity." I'm neither that vain nor that foolish; therefore, I'll be quite content with a Lotus.
