I've narrowed it down to 6 ROADSTERS. Given that if I did purchase one it would likely replace my current MX5 Miata, it definitely has to be a 2-seat roadster, and it has to be at *least* as fun to drive as my Miata. Bonus points if the car was designed as a roadster (not a coupe with the roof cut off).
The 6 to be tested (in no particular order) and their respective starting prices are:
Mazda MX5 Miata - $28,095Honda S2000 - $50,300
Nissan 350Z - $53,698
Porsche Boxster - 63,600
Pontiac Solstice - $26,625
Saturn Sky - $31,935
I realize that the Solstice and the Sky are essentially the same car... but, they're both affordable, and the Sky isn't exactly the ugly stepsister that the Solstice is. Plus, for some reason, the starting price is almost a full $5,000 higher, which is worth finding out why.
Also, the Audi TT would have been in the list, but for some reason, it doesn't appear on Audi's Canadian website? May be that the 2007 model hasn't been released yet, but wouldn't they have a 2006 model?
In any case, 6 cars will make for a long day. I'm hoping to spend about an hour with each car. Good thing 5 out of 6 dealerships are on Yonge Street!

hey hey!
too bad you couldn't test drive all of them... i didn't know there could be a waiting list for certain cars. but... i suppose it makes sense, especially when it comes to the porche.
