away to have a looksee round some garages today....
A couple of cars that are fitting the bill over a 22b...
So....
Exige
996
or budget option of s2 elise
How easy are exiges to live with daily? Would Fee be able to get in and out without flashing her gash in a skirt.

my mind has gone rather blank, ermm 22B???
Exige is possibly the most least practical car ever made, a cricket team mate has one and has to have his cricket bag as the passenger, and even then the roof has to be off.

exige for me, 22bs look very dated imo!!
but a 996 would tempt me more so i think!!

I've been in an exige!!!!
I'd say buy one for the thrill factor but they are not practical everyday....
There is a very good chance of a gash flash every now and then too with skirts I would have thought. But unless theres photgraphers around does it really matter?

what would you be using it for with havin the skyline as a track car? if its everyday id have the 22b anyday,should hold its value more,but if its an everyday car maybe worried about clocking up miles on it?

Go to a dealership and try getting in and out of one first!
friend of mine used to have a S2 Elise, and while it was a very cool car it was far from practical!
You cant park in tight spaces beacuse you need the door open wide to get out

I nearlly chocked on my Tea  
Only one way to find out, get Fee in a skirt go find some exiges and take a camera.
I think she should be ok , if she takes the lady like approach, not the paris / britney approach.
Probally gonna be the same as the Supra was, not sure if you were with Fee then though 
As much as i lov ethe exige, it would be a hard choice between the porker and exige, id need to have 2 decent test runswith both.

No. If you are 6ft tall or over you wont be able to get in it without taking the roof off it either
