Re: Your super car of choice???

I dont consider all those cars as supercars but my vote goes to Scuderia.
I've been a Ferrari fan since I was a little kid. If I was filthy rich I would own a Ferrari and a real car entusiast should love Ferrari.
I haven't heard anything bad about the Scuderia, might be the best Ferrari produced.
Ferraris is all about passion and feelings, a Skyline is too sterile and doesn't give my a WoW experience. I think GT2 comes second on my list here.

Re: Your super car of choice???

Well I tried to consider some favorites here. Besides, the E92 M3 makes just as much power as an R8. The term "supercar" takes on a much more individual preference because of the greater compromise these cars make to suit so many different tastes.

Re: Your super car of choice???

Well this is the hardest choice ever...for me.
My favorite car is the E92 M3, but when I see this name: 997 Turbo ... ohh

So my first 3 is: 997 Turbo, M3, 997 GT2

Re: Your super car of choice???

Usually I am a Porsche man. But like I already said, I feel the 997 TT is the least appealing 997, they failed with it. Noise, look, performances...this is not what the 911 Turbo should be. It deserved better.

And I feel almost the same with the GT2; redline at 6700 tr/min is, for a Porsche GT2, just not good enough. As is the noise it makes. Nothing like a 993 GT2...

I absolutely love the GT3 and the Carrera, but both Turbo and GT2 do not evoke the same passion to me.

The noise and redline are not on par with the Scuderia here. Too bad.

Ferrari nailed it with the Scuderia, I don't like the F430 but the Scuderia is something different. Absolute passion.

The M3 is in another league, the R8 looks like a stretched TT, the GTR is waay too Japanese and does not appeal at all to me.

The Superleggera could come second for me. The 'Vette is not my cup of tea, but what a price... And the Dodge is a very good car.

But the Scuderia is so fabulous...

Re: Your super car of choice???

For me: it's between the GT2, the GT-R and the Superleggera.

I undoubtedly love the GT2, but can't help but feel it's missing something. The Superleggera on the other hand, would have been my choice had the Nissan not made an appearance in this poll. Yep, that's right, I want the GT-R. I love it way too much to pass it up.

Sure, the Nissan badge might not carry the same amount of allure as some of the others in this company, but I couldn't care less. Badge has never been a concern of mine. What is a concern of mine, is the styling, the interior and the technology of a car - and suffice to say, the GT-R floats my boat in all of those respective categories.

I'd like mine in this colour:



As for the others in this comparison: R8 (would be my choice after my top three); Scuderia (not a Fezza fan); M3 (seems a bit jaded in this company); Corvette (like it quite a bit, but wouldn't want one because of the interior); SRT-10 (like it, but wouldn't want one either); Turbo (great car, but also lacking something in my humble opinion).

P.S. - this is my 10,000th post.
