>What cars being sold today have "balls"? Are there any?

============

First, those that AREN'T:

Any AMG (heck, any car that comes only with an automatic)
Any SMG-equipped BMW
Anything whose weight (in lbs) begins with a "4"

Those that DO have balls:

Ford GT (but not that overweight Shelby 500 pig)
Dodge Viper (though it's piss ugly)
Ferrari 430 coupe (no pissy CCM brakes, no ridiculous cosmetic options, no
F1 tranny)
Aston Martin Vantage
BMW M5 (with the 6-speed, and NOT the M6)
Audi R10 diesel Le Mans race car (ok, not a street car, but had to add it)
Cadillac CTS-V (yeah, I said it)
Honda S2000 (yeah, I said that too)
Mazda Miata (yup, I'll stand by this one too)
Dodge Magnum SRT-8 (yeah, it's got an auto and is heavy like a pig, but,
damn it, a $37k stealthy station wagon q-ship that can smoke 99% of the cars
out there?  Hell yeah)
Infiniti G35 Sport (look out BMW)
Noble M400
Lotus Elise/Exige

And the ultimate car with balls today?

(close your eyes, Jenkins)

Porsche 911 GT3 RS.  Pure.  Driving.  Skill.

No turbos, no AWD, no paddle shifters, no stability management.  415
horsepower, big brakes and tires, racing suspension.  Pure driving fun.  And
looks satanic in burnt orange.

Vty,
