You can take a Lotus Evora 410, Merc AMG GTR, Lambo Huracan, Ferrari 488 or some Alfa SUV.

I reckon that merc would be the only one that you can actually live with. 
I'm getting old... :/

My business partner has a lotus exige, upgraded the supercharger recently, it's a total nutcase car now, a proper track monster.
But it's a rather uncomfortable, noisy, tiny-tiny car to live with.   Even just getting in and out is a friggen exercise. :)

900kgs and ~200kW at the wheels is fun.  And it revs madly, so you step on it in 2nd and you're past all speed limits of australia in 3 seconds.

I still don't want one.

The Lambo was about 3 cm off the road, and the tyres were extremely low profile, probably about 4 cm high. That thing would be damn uncomfortable and impractical to drive in the real world. The Ferrari was huge. The Merc looked to be the best suited to the real world.

Ah yes, the fezza would not fit my shitty garage, those are usually way too wide :D

And you're getting old too :D

Which year is the Fezza? Don't want to end up with a 2020 model!

I'll take the Lotus :)

And not to mention that I'm so tall I wouldn't even fit into any of them.
