Well don't get me wrong I still admire the CGT deeply, but I just like the Lambo a little more now. It may have something to do with the CGT being out of production now.

Especially because of that! Such masterpiece is no longer in production and who owns it should be proud.

Re: Which exotic would you most want in your garage?

I had to pick the Carrera GT. The car is truly beautiful, and I feel that is the type of car, from the choices, that I would like to have in my garage. The car is a daily driver, or at least seems like a daily driver compared to the others--the other exception would be the SLR of course

Re: Which exotic would you most want in your garage?

LP640
SLR 722
Enzo
CGT

LP640- by far my favourite supercar. in the striaght line its equal to the the SLR (dont know about the 722), CGT, Zonda F and only slightly behind the Enzo (gap really opens past 240 km/h).

SportAuto stated that the car needs "strong arms" and I take this as a good thing. I dont want "fingure tip" control, I want to take the ragin bull by the horns!

asides from the lack of visibility(not too bad), the LP640 isnt uncomfortable or unreliable and can be a daily driver if you wanted it to be and as long as you drive it its not going to break down. its also the best looking and sounding of the bunch in my opinion.

SLR722- its a better daily driver than the LP640 but its not nearly as good looking in my opinion. like the LP640, it has comforts like power seats and power windows and like the Murcielago it meets the standards of roadcars whereas the Enzo does not.

Enzo-fastest of the bunch but not by a huge margin. its not up to par as a road car; it doesnt have power windows or power seats. It sounds good but not the best of the group, the LP640 and CGT sound better and the SLR sound more unique.

CGT-they say the clutch is tricky but as an automobile the car is an engineering masterpiece. nothing is wrong with it. however, I CAN NOT get passed the looks. it looks boring! doesnt look like a supercar, more like a big boxter.

Re: Which exotic would you most want in your garage?

From this list I'll take the CGT as well. But why isn't the Zonda_F on here? I would take that without even thinking about it.

This is actually an older thread..after CAR-NNOSSEUR created this thread, I made another one with a few of the vehicles which had missed out.
