Yep. I would never buy one, even if I won the lottery.

If I did win the lottery, I would donate a big chunk to the Oklahoma 
Music Hall of Fame and another big chunk to the Ron Paul campaign, and 
then:
buy a Bugatti Type 35, an old Jaguar, an old Austin-Healy and a 
pre-1937 MG of some sort.

They did the Thunderbird well, I thought, as well as the Beetle: 
modern, but with retro styling that referenced the original, sort of a 
SteamPunk feel.

This is just some Anime-Fanboy jerk-off.

Should have done what Mazda did: hire some American MG-fans to design it.
