Maybe the Audi TT for its styling, copied most obviously by 350Z, SC430, new Eclipse (ripoff!) and all the other spaceship cars that will get continually more common? Or the Opel Speedster for a little everything, speed, handling, style and the Lotus Elise on the same note. Mostly European only stuff I think? Like the Lancia Delta, Stratos are now, but I dont know, a lot of the cars right now are absolutely no good. The RX8 had a chance, but blew it with lame performance and problems. Didnt quite take advantage of the hype. Perhaps some of those Chryslers? I dont know, might turn out just to be trendy. Not many companies are breaking new ground, best bets are with Audi, Volvo, Chrysler and even the French a little, and Alfa is trying oh so hard, but I doubt they can come back. New lineup is like 3500 lbs and up!
