good point. but i think all sporty convertibles are referred to as Spiders (or Spyders). so which Spider?
maybe a Dolorean DMC-12? i think it meet all of the criterias u mention but it's still so cool!
i dunno. but i did vote Mustang Cobra and Carroll Shelby did design a few models.
i was also really cool for it's brutish simplicity (like the original AC Cobra). V10, no ABS, traction control, steering assist, manual, etc. i think the new Corvettes borrowed alot of the styling cues from the last generation of Vipers esp. in the hood and lights.
