I know very little about them. I've heard of them all, though.

They are all very fast and highly impractical. The Dauer runs 0-60 in about 2.7 seconds. That's about all I know.

The esprit is actually quite practical. It gets decent gas milage and has a nice amount of trunk space due to small displacement (3.5 liters).

 

[Dark Skyline]

All I know is that the esprit is a very fun car to ride in and it feels kind of stange getting out of them because they are low to the ground.

 

[Rumple Foreskin]

The Esprit is definatly the odd one out in that list.

 

[Takumi Fujiwara]

One of my neighbors has an Esprit. Lucky bastard...

 

[Dark Skyline]

So does my uncle.

Not to nitpick, but...

Which Bugatti EB110? The GT or the SS?
The correct name of the second car is the "Cizeta-Moroder V16T". Note the hyphen... Moroder, an Italian singer, funded the car. The model name is "V16T".
Which Lotus Esprit? There's been like 30 variants - from a 2 litre, to a 2.2 litre turbo, the current 3.5 litre, with a Sport350 variant (and so on and so forth).

The Dauer would be an amazing car to get hold off even if it was impractical. You could have fro a week and it wouldn't do much harm.

HA HA HA HA HA ha ha ha ha ...

This reminds me of something that happened at work a while back. Referance: my boss at the time was a complete moron. He was the "IT Manager" but a better description of his personality and skillset would be to call him a used car salesman.

The owner of the company sent an email asking about some historical event, kind of a highschool quiz almost. So my idiot boss responds "Reply to All" with his answer. About an hour later the head accountant lady responds to his resonce "Reply to All" and includes a link to the website that he copied and pasted his paragraph's worth of reply from. Then proceded to explain to him how to use email and that generally a Reply to All isn't used when you're trying to show off in front of the boss unless you actually know what you're doing. Man he was a dumb ass.

Hahahahah...your IT manager got 0wnd!
