Buying a beck is like buying a fake rolex!? posuer..
I completely disagree and I think you're totally missing the point of the car. There is no car you can buy from a factory that will be close to as much fun as a 1500-1600 pound Beck, spyder or speedster, including an Elise. You can't compare a Boxster to this car (as Porsche likes to do), it's a Cadillac by comparison. If you're looking for a real sports car experience at a reasonable price, these cars are possibly the best way to go.

Though I do agree the Beck Spyder is awesome and would be a boatload of fun. Aeriel Atom would be just as much fun if not more.
