Other great looking performance cars

Although I am still in awe of the Elise's curves, I have found a few others that are every bit as voluptuous. Even a Ford Mustang can look good from the right angle.

Enjoy!

And to think one of the reasons I didn't like the Mustang was its solid rear end...

And they all weigh next to nothing. Perfect chassis and 36-24-36 weight distribution. But high maintenance costs no doubt - $15k per shop(ping) visit
