Vehicle of The Day

Woops, I completely forgot about this.

Not that anyway seems to care about my nominations anyway so I guess it doesn't matter.

Yeah, sorry about that. Unfortunate coincidence I hope.

10/18/14: 2000-present Spyker C8, nominated by @Leggy1.

Specs, just scroll down a little bit.

 

[Leggy1]

@Dagger311 200-present? That's a little too old

Holland's finest supercar.

the Spyker C8 chariot .

Not sure I like the way the hood looks, but performance wise it's amazing.

 

[Legro]

Holland's only supercar.

Fixed.

 

[GranTurismo916]

Fixed.

 

[Legro]

Do you consider Caterham 620R as a supercar?

 

[Leggy1]

@Legro http://www.topgear.com/uk/car-news/vencer-sarthe-revealed-2013-06-10

Spyker isn't the only one, but my favourite dutch supercar.

@Dagger311 I think the older C8s look better, and the interior is amazing:

 

[GranTurismo916]

Do you consider Caterham 620R as a supercar?

No, but it can keep up with them.

 

[Legro]

No, but it can keep up with them.

I'd say that both the Caterham and the Donkervoort are faster than most supercars, but they aren't really supercars themselves. Unlike the car @Leggy1 linked.

10/19/14: Toyota GT86, nominated by @ProjectWHaT.

Specs.

 

[Legro]

The best Toyota in 15 years. I'd much rather have Subaru BRZ.

 

[Dagger311]

What are the differences between the BRZ, GT86, and the Scion FR-S?

 

[The Stig Farmer]

What are the differences between the BRZ, GT86, and the Scion FR-S?

Badges. Bumpers.

 

[Leggy1]

@Dagger311

The Scion FRS is a re-badged Toyota GT-86 for the US market.

 

[Legro]

What are the differences between the BRZ, GT86, and the Scion FR-S?

Name and bumper. Most importantly BRZ isn't Toyota.

 

[Dagger311]

Well, if they're practically the same thing, I'll take the cheaper one!

 

[Leggy1]

The BRZ is £2,600 cheaper than the Toyota here despite being the same.

 

[Legro]

The BRZ is £2,600 cheaper than the Toyota here despite being the same.

It's almost 10,000€ cheaper here.

 

[ProjectWHaT]

BRZ is more expensive here I think. They also have different headlights. The 86 and BRZ have LEDs while the FRS doesn't.

Length: 4005 mm (157.7 in)
Weight: 1230kg

Engines: 1997cc (Turbo)

[Parker]

I love rally, easily one of my favorite forms of motorsport. Enjoy this video of the 206.

 

[GranTurismo916]

What are the differences between the BRZ, GT86, and the Scion FR-S?

The difference is that the BRZ is better than all of them.

 

[Dagger311]

The difference is that the BRZ is better than all of them.

Because Subaru?

 

[GranTurismo916]

Because Subaru?

Maybe.

 

[ilikewaffles11]

If I remember correctly the FRS/GT86/BRZ all have different suspension set ups as well. The BRZ is set up for a bit more comfort while the FRS/GT86 are more for handling.

So you're saying the BRZ is obviously better?

 

[ilikewaffles11]

So you're saying the BRZ is obviously better?

Well if I was buying one I'd rather have the sportier one, so FRS for me.

 

[Leggy1]

@peobryant I wish rallying was more popular. It's awesome to watch.
