That is so freaking cool!

A museum I worked at a couple of years ago had a lifesize Naboo fighter in their lobby. I guess they used it for Episodes 1-3. Not as cool as the X-Wing but I still spent quite some time staring at it.

I saw a picture of an X-wing on the deck of a WWII carrier. Looked like she had crashed. Was it one of you guys? :D

I would rather have a Lotus Elise http://www.lotuscars.com/lotus.html

I love the look of the Elise. I can just imagine myself zipping through highway traffic/navigating the Blue Ridge mountains/etc in it.

Too bad the nearest dealer is in Maryland, or I'd make it a point to check prices.

~$45,000 I think. They weigh absolutely nothing at ~2,000 lbs and Lotus is responsible for some of the best supsension design in the last 50 years. They are powered by a tuned Toyota Celica GT-S engine, which sits right behind the driver for perfect weight balance. In the slower twisties they will outrun a C5 Z06 Corvette, which also handles amazingly well.

Hey, the X-Wing's in Dayton! That's about twenty minutes from me.

...

Not that it means much, since I don't have $85,000, and I'd probably find something better to spend it on if I did. Maybe I could at least take it out for a test drive...

Saw an Elise cruising along the other day in town, very nice looking car. There's also one sitting in a mall near me on display.

Does that one come with a life size Yoda and swamp coated R2-D2?

It probably should. And I'm sure if you look hard enough, you may find Luke's other functioning lightsaber......you know, the retarded one that didn't work as well as it should. The pink one......
