Look at this sexy bitch. I can't find anything wrong with the W196, it is the most perfect car ever I also have a thing for the W198. Favorite racing and favorite production car.

Lamborghini Murcielago LP640



I spent more than an hour having a debate in my head today because of this thread. I could not choose between the LP640 and the Diablo 6.0VT. I fell in love with the Diablo when I was 4 years old and it was the first supercar I fell in love with. but the Murcielago LP640 is not only faster, sounds better but is a better car overall.

lets start from the back. the exhaust tip is easily big enough to fit both of my fists. the tail lights are works of art. they make the Diablo's look old. the rear tires are more than 30 cm wide . then there are the rear airvents. they OPEN! I dont know of any other car that has opening rear air vents. that is uber cool. then there is the doors. signature doors that no other car maker asides from Lamborghini is known for. the 05 rims (ones the lower picture) are works of art and along with the SLR rims are the nicest wheels ever created imo. the side air intakes are MASSIVE. the car itself is more than 2 meters wide and with the side mirrors, its about 2.2 meters wide then there are the side mirrors themselves. they flow from the car body so nicely and they too are massive. then we have the front brakes which have as many pistons as a Z06 engine and are the size of our Accord's rims and are as thick as my pinky finger is long. then we have the headlights. just the shape is ASTONISHING to behold. no other supercars' headlights are shaped the way the Murcielago's are. the SLR's headlights have the shape of any mercedes (although are much sexier). the enzo doesnt compare. the CGT's headlights look like a Boxster headlights. the Zonda's are not big and muscular like the Murcielago's. the only car's headlights that come close are the Gallardo and R8 but even them the Murcielago's are more angular and "in your face". then we have the air intakes at the front which too are MASSIVE.

other things to consider:

0-60: less than 3.5
0-100 in the 7s
1/4 mile: low 11s
top speed 340 km/h

I dont remember which magazine said it but the Murcielago is the last he-man's supercar. no "finger tip controls" here. you really gotta take the ragin bull by the horns and use some muscle!

Actually quite easy for me also, the Mercedes-Benz SL (specifically the SL55 AMG) is the car I want the most and the one I covet the most. The SL in general every since the R129 model from 1990 right up until today's R230 model, has been my most desired car. Sure there were brief periods in which the CLS and CL took the crown, but overall since 1990 the SL has been the cat's meow for me. I mean really, does it have to be explained when you look at this?

















Still, arguably Mercedes' best car and no doubt a modern day classic.

The Mercedes W123 hands down.

"Best saloon car of the 20th century." according to a BIASED Mercedes Enthusiast poll.



In second place: 1996 Mitsubishi Pajero 2500 Intercooler Turbo

Didn't see any Bimmers in the list. Thought I'll give my 2 cents worth on my favourite car of all time..the BMW 328 is one of the all-time classics

its a pity that these are such a rareity nowadays.

My favorite car of all time is...........
it looks badass, sounds badass, and its one of the best rally cars of all time.

Of course, any E46 would do, but this M3 is definitely the one car I would choose.

Favourite car of all time? That's a hard one.

Though sorry guys this is head and shoulders above the rest:



Some say... the detailing isn't right. Some say... it rides far too high.

All I know is it's the most beautiful car in the world!

Saw a perfectly-maintained blue example yesterday and I almost passed out at the wheel. I'd love one to tinker with and to use. Lovely, lovely, lovely, lovely car....

Aston Martin DB9 and McLaren F1.

Only one? McLaren.
