I think the correct thing to say in this case is....

Yikes.. 600 hp at 3050 lbs.. Its as light as a Z06 with 50% more hp...

I'll most likely never get enough money to realisticly buy any of these exotic cars.. but if I did, I would personally like to get an exotic car that weights considerably less, and then pour on the HP... The Mosler MT900 comes in mind... with a 7.0L C5R street engine in it. :D It won't be anywhere as refined as the Porsche, but, who cares... I'd be taking it to the tracks and roadcourses every weekend!

sounds good, i like the numbers but the rear half of the car looks funny. almost looks like and old elcamino or ranchero.
