I'll have the Cadillac. It'll be the most luxurious, it's the most powerful, and being a Cadillac, it will probably be treated well in its life.
 
The Olds, I've mentioned before why I like and the similar reasons apply here too. The Bonniville would be a close second.
 
Seville because better v8 sound and I had to test drive a SLS at my auto tech school and loved it.
 
Kia Forte Koup EX vs. Hyundai Veloster - I like the Veloster, looks cool and has an out-of-the-ordinary door system.

Ford Granada vs. Pontiac Le Mans - The LM looks less like a box, so I'll go with that. Nice engines in both though.

Volkswagen Tiguan vs. Nissan Fuke'd Nismo - I'll go with the Tiguan please....

Buick Park Avenue Ultra vs. Pontiac Bonneville GXP vs. Chevrolet Impala SS vs. Oldsmobile Aurora vs. Cadillac Seville STS - All of them are in their time except the Buick and the Cadillac, so those are out. Park Avenue's out, because it's only 3.8 240 HP. The Aurora is out because 1. It's an Oldsmobile and 2. It's a 250 HP. Lastly, the underpowered, yet good looking, Impala is out. That leaves the Bonneville.

Both videos are stock dyno numbers but the Torino will be about 40hp less due to the fact it was an engine dyno, not a chassis dyno like the Firebird.

Ford Torino 429 SCJ Drag Pack vs. Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am SD-455 - Torino, it was in the awesome '69-early '71 era.
 
Pontiac Trans am 455 : Because its has a Bigger engine and Very cool styling and its way more flashy and bonkers

Buick Park avenue Ultra : Because it more classy than the others and comfortable and Very spacious , If there is a 94-96 Impala SS It would be my choice OFC Though it will be better if it was the 91 Buick park avenue


Ford Granada : I Like it looks always loved 351 engines and Vinyl roofs


VW Tiguan : Because its a VW And not an insect and it More Stylish and comfy and DSG's are awesome No wants a CVT I Guess


Hyundai Veloster: I Have a soft spot for it looks More Bonkers than the KIA And has a 3 door design Which is unique id throw a 455 in it :sly:

I'd pick the Gallardo, most bang for your buck.
 
Torino v. Firebird: I'll have the Torino. That thing is gorgeous.

LFA v. Gallardo v. F430 v. 911:LFA, easy.

Ford Torino. Just such a rare car.

And the exotics. Hummmm. Well, I absolutely hate the Lamborghini Gallardo. I think it is the worst looking Lamborghini made. I would rather have a R8 5.2 Quattro instead of the Gallardo. Besides that hard choices. LFA is a very cool car with a great sound. I love the F430, but I would rather have the F430 Scuderia.

So I would take the GT3. It is a great and fun car.
 
Ford Torino 429 vs. Pontiac Trans-Am 455: Hmmm, tough choice here, but I'll take them both.

LFA vs. Gallardo vs. F430 vs. GT3 RS 4.0: Hmmmm... I'll take the GT3 RS and the LFA, because technology of the LFA and racecar for the RS 4.0. ;)

Torino v.s. Firebird: I'd take the Torino, looks better and more power. :D

LFA v.s. Gallardo v.s. F430 v.s. GT3: If I had to take one I'd take the Porsche, because I've never liked the others. Although I'd rather just save the money. :indiff:

^ Seems like an unfair comparison. The Torino should be matched up against the GTO not the Trans Am. Anyhow, the Torino gets my vote.

^ Funny. Your specs on the Gallardo is the LP550-2, yet the Lambo on your pic is the new LP560-4. Either way the Lambo I want is the 2012 LP550-2 w/ the gated M/T. Which the 2013/14 model doesn't offer it anymore... :indiff:

-> But on your list above, I'd take both the 997 & the LFA. Simply because the GT3 4.0 is much involved drivers car and the closest of a track toy, plus its M/T is a HUGE bonus! While I sat on the LFA's driver seat, it can be my DD car & the Lex feels like my S2000 that escaped from prison & mental institution. And Dat Soundtrack! :drool:
 
LFA. Why? Because its a labour of love from Toyota, and the sound… OH THE SOUND!
 
Porsche 997 GT3 RS : Its easier to live with and more track oriented And im a big porsche fan

Torino vs Trans Am; Trans Am. Its the best looking and has the best name.

LFA vs Gallardo vs F430 vs GT3RS 4.0; The LFA is just an overpriced Toyota. I've driven the F430 and it's fantastic but old hat compared to a 458. The Porsche doesn't have creature comforts and is too track focused. That basically leaves the Gallardo; it looks the best and is likely the easiset to live with.

F1 vs Veyron: Although they are both legends, I'll take the Bugatti. It's easier to live with, is more luxurious, has 4WD, and of course, 1000hp. Living with an F1 could get quite tiresome after a while with that 3-seat central driving position.
 
Obviously, the McLaren. It's over 9000x more beautiful, with a better sound, more economical :lol: (I need to save tires) and more spacy (there are some secret compartiments). The central position is quite original, and it lets you see the road better.

Me now:

Would you rather have:

The 55,000$ (USD) 2013 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1,

Or the 57,000$ (USD, invoice) 2013 Lexus IS F?

I want to see some Muscle vs. Euro-Japan battles!
 
I'll have neither. For big tyre smoke, I'll have a C63 AMG. For out-and-out track fun, a BMW M3 will suffice.
 
Lexus is a much better car in my opinion, as it makes a good trackcar and it's got the Lexus luxury for making it much easier to live with everyday.
 
JAHHAJ
McLaren by over a mile.

Totally agree. Bugatti is just a very overrated car. You me, if you buy a McLaren F1 and you chose it over the Bugatti I would say you have class
 
McLaren. Because a French-German 4WD thing isn't as cool as the Big Bad Mac.

ISF, because its got space for 5 an can at least be had with RHD.
