ie: i'd prefer charade gtti or origional shape mini to a ferrari soley because they're such a barrel of laughs yet still dirt cheap with some decent performance (the gtti does 0-60 around 7.5 secs)

Understand where you're coming from re: the GTI but frankly, if I had the means, an F430 would be parked in the garage in preference to a Mini.

Wog
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
As a racial reference in Australian English
Wog is also a slang term in Australian English, denoting non-Anglo-Celtic Australians, usually people of Southern European Mediterranean or Middle Eastern ancestries. Historically, the term included Slavic peoples from the Balkans (Croats, Serbs, FYROMs, ect.). Recently, it has come to be applied to people of Middle Eastern or Mediterranean ancestry, such as Arabs, Isrealis, Latins, Greeks, Roma, Turks, Iranians, and others of similar racial appearance.

I'm hauling this puppy up to add a YouTube link to a recent test Clarkson did of the Cadillac CTS-V, including a lap against an Audi S4 driven by the Stig. More smoke than fire, but that Caddy does move
Here's the link: Top Gear
