I still need to pick up Spy Hunter...  Heck, change the car to a Mini.  
The car was the least important aspect of the game, it was everything else 
that was so great.  FYI.  The Australia release of BAR was actually called 
HSV, with a different car model entirely used in the game.

Probably wouldn't be the same.  The game just hit on all cylinders IMHO 
which doesn't usually happen.
