[Shotimes] (OT) SHO replacement

[bjshov8]

> As for SHO replacments I can think of a few in the same catagory. I can
think of dozens of fast fun cars to drive.

To me the SHO is a combination of performance, cost, efficiency and utility.
With this in mind it is somewhat harder to replace.  I used to think the
Maxima was the closest replacement, with the Acura 3.2TL-S next in line.
I've noticed that the Mazda 6 may be the closest replacement yet- it is at a
good price point, has a similar size engine with similar horsepower, and has
performance to match the gen1/2 SHO.

I sense that a lot of the list members are now able to move up the price
ladder and replace their SHO's with something that stickers one or 2 classes
above the SHO.  This opens the possibilities a lot but then these cars are
less equal as SHO replacements.

As for me I'm inclined to consider a G35 as a possible replacement.
Unfortunately the cheapest one that I could get would be twice what I paid
for my gen1 SHO new, and 4 times what I paid for my gen3 used.
