Best sports cars ever

Here is a ranking done by a program on the Discovery Channel. It seems like a very arbitrary list to me. It is hard to understand what they are basing everything on. But it was a interesting show regardless. I liked the part in the show where the guy says, the Skyline is like a Japanese salary man. Plain on the outside, but it really is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
