I always thought it wpuld be cool to start a car company that makes a good driving car but thats as simple and manual as possible. (Which is almost what the BRZ is for me but like to the extreme... no power steering, no power windows, no power locks, etc..)

Something like a Lotus Elise is pretty close to that. Not many compromises or creature comforts. I think you can even get them without a stereo? If I could afford one and live with one in my 'one car garage' I'd have one in a heartbeat and daily the heck out of it.
