The Zonda reminds me of a new Koenigsegg LMP900 prototype sportscar that may be running at LeMans and/or the ALMS

Well you got to admit guys we make some great cars over here, as Lotus, Stealth, TVR, and Noble are all English cars!!!! :D
There a bloke in my town who has a Lotus 340R.
Do you guys get Any TVR's over there?
As if you like that one The Cerbera is sooooo much better and so quick as well.
There are so many great cars, u guys don't get.
I love the US but you really get shafted, which is a shame.

Skyline GTR
Pulsar GTI-R
Scoobys WRX, P1, STI, 22B
Lancers Evos
E30 M3 special editions, like the wonderful Evo 3
Euro spec E36 M3 Evo
Lotus Elise, Exige
All the TVR's as far as I know( did anyone see Swordfish with John Travolta as there was a TVR Tuscan in that, Nice car)
and probably so many more that i can't even think of.

Don't we know it. Too stringent of emissions and crash test laws for manufacturers to spend the money for importation. Like the days of the 959 when the US supposedly wanted a crash test of it before they would allow Porsche to sell it here. Porsche, of course, says screw you. Since then it's all been downhill for us. Although rumour has it that TVR might start to sell here in a few years, but that remains to be seen and question of how they would sell them.

It's starting to look better though. BMW gave us the same spec of the new M5 and M3's. Scooby WRX and possibly the new Mitsu EVO. Maybe they are starting to realize that if they import it we will come.
