There's rumors that it's actually a lot more than that. Somewhere in the 800s.

That's NASCAR-level power... except the Charger isn't in NASCAR anymore... but the new shape of the front would make a better-looking car for it.
 
9/16/14: Tesla Model S, nominated by @AudiMan2011.

Here are some detailed specs. This vehicle returns to the list on 10/16/14.

I actually really, really like this car. My dream daily driver. Right up there with a Bentley, an Aston Martin, and a California.
 
The only electric car that is genuinely desirable 👍 And fast, practical, with a good range too.
 
It's a perfect daily driver for someone who's rich, but not Bentley rich.

It's quiet.
It's fast.
It's luxurious.
It's one of the safest cars money can buy.
And, it's a sedan, for the family man.
 
Are those fold up seats or something? I saw a Tesla at a car show, and there were no seats in the trunk...

Edit: Looks like there may have been...
 
No VOTD today. We'll have two released and discussed simultaneously tomorrow.
 
Those are both badass cars. I hope to own an '02 WRX wagon fairly soon, I'd love an STi but I don't think the wifey will go for that.

Subaru STIs are the best Japanese cars ever.

I don't know, some of those classics are pretty nice... :P

Definitely the best modern one though IMO.
 
9/19/14: 1958 Chevrolet Corvette, nominated by me, @Dagger311.

Here is an insanely large list of specs.

One of my top four guys! Absolutely thrilled it got picked. I'd daily one of these till the wheels fell off. It has another shot at VOTD on 10/19/14.

My top 2 car already got picked (Top one if all classic Minis are counted as one).
 
Let's see, the Mini, and the... Bristol?
 
My wording might have been bit off, the Mini that got picked is my second favorite version of all Minis and Minis are my favorite cars.

Edit: I have nominated my second favorite car after Minis.
 
Oh, okay.

Fun fact: this is the first year that double barrel headlights were availible on a Corvette.
 
The best looking version of the C1, better than the single headlights one.

I agree. I like the 58-62s much better than the 57 and before.

Another fun fact: untill 56, Corvettes sorta sucked. And until 57, they were really slow.
 
It doesn't look like the other Corvettes, although still beautiful. The C2 seemed to set the shape for the future generations.

The 1963 C2 Corvette is one of the most iconic body shapes in classic American cars, as is the C2 in general. I've not met one person who didn't think the new C7 bears slight resemblances to its previous generations, as well. GM did a really good job of making it look modern and fast, but still going retro with it.

Especially with the split rear window :drool: The new rear light's aren't too popular but I quite like them.

I prefer them over the C6s.
