Tacoma vs. Fontier: Hmmmm.... Tough choice here, ummmm I'll take the Nissan.

SVT Raptor vs. SRT-10: Ugh, this one is tough... I'll take both trucks. Raptor for DD and off road action @600hp and Ram for the track @800+HP with twin turbos and better handling. :mischievous:👍

Supra Mk4 vs. RX7 FD: I'll take them both, hands down! And hello 2JZ @1000hp with T51 and 4-rotor R26B TT @650hp. ;)
 
Stop taking both cars. It's getting old. The thread is "Would You Rather?" Not "Do you want all or neither?"


Edit: Also, if the mods aren't included in the WYR, it's kind of pointless to add them IMO.

Raptor because its bets the stock and performance ram in just about every category. Could do without the extended can tho
 
-> ...
2013 Toyota Tacoma

or

2013 Nissan Frontier
^ Quite tough here. Both are very capable trucks.

-> The Taco is the bestseller (in the US), even Rednecks adore it. Eerily, it rides almost like a car on normal roads, that awesome composite bed, and a plethora of configurations! But the seats are so close to the floor as in you're sitting on the floor, that FJ Cruiser M/T issues, and the HiLux exists outside the North America.

-> The Frontier on the other hand is also called the Navara to the rest of the world, which means it's a true Global vehicle. It has the backbone (F-Alpha platform) of the Titan, an engine based on the Z, and marginally more confortable seats. But it drinks more gas, most rear windows are enclosed/fixed, and the interior is subpar.

^ But I'll pick the Frontier, it's tougher overall, better driving dynamics, & globally recognized.


Since we're on the topic of pick-ups, would you rather have a:

Ford F-150 Raptor

or

Dodge RAM
^ I really love the SRT-10 so does the Raptor. The Ram is a hoon special & the Raptor is an urban crusher! I'd take both, sorry.


1996 Toyota Supra

or

1999 Mazda RX7
^ I'd pick the Supra, seats more, rides better, and it won't break right away. And I haven't even start on the tuning part yet! lol


Neither. They both don't come anywhere near close to an equivalent Porsche 911.
^ I somehow quite agree. But never mind about the 996, the 993 is just epic!
 
Toyota Cressida vs. Nissan Laurel C32
Cressida, I just like Toyota's FR sedans more than Laurels or Cedrics (or Glorias, etc.). Perhaps because they are preferred by tuners.

Tacoma vs. Frontier
I'll go with the Tacoma, because the Frontier (named Navara) is very common on the streets of my city, but in Tacoma, I will stand out of the traffic - it's not sold in my country officially.

Raptor vs. Ram SRT-10
I'll take the Raptor, because it seems to have some off-road capabilities, unlike the SRT. A pickup must be able to go offroad, I think.

Supra JZA80 vs. RX-7 FD3S
FD without a doubt. It's lighter, smaller, and has a better chassis for circuit racing. Supra is more useful for drag racing (thanks to the 2JZ-GTE engine which can be upgraded to enormous power), but RX-7 performes better on a circuit.
 
Porsche 993 GT2
694838d1358046976-changing-color-rsbluegt2front.jpg


OR

Pagani Zonda C12 S 7.3
990-1.jpg
 
Supra vs. RX-7: Supra, no question.

The RX-7 has the recipe for a great circuit racer but the Supra is not exactly a slouch in the bends either. Skidpad ratings exceeding 0.90g are pretty admirable for what is a grand touring vehicle versus a proper balls-out sportscar.

Besides the age-old debate of rotary-versus-piston motor which can rumble on for decades with neither side backing down, the simple fact of the matter for me and my driving is that the Supra is, in the real world where there's really very little-to-no opportunity for track time for myself, the "faster" machine and being a GT vehicle it is also the more acceptable vehicle for my style of everyday driving. The RX-7's motor has a higher peak torque, and the ride is considerably harsher.

Porsche 993 GT2 vs. Pagani Zonda S: Very simple decision here. The GT2 is one of the all-time great Porsches with very good reason. It's got a hell of a lot of performance, it's got a hell of a lot of character and it's got pedigree.

All traits that in my opinion the Pagani does better.

I'll take the Zonda.

Zonda for sure. Porsches are often bought by many somehow rich people because everybody knows Porsche is cool. But Pagani is the choice of real supercar fanatics.
 
Well 993 is the pinnacle of the air cooled cars, ana the GT2 builds on that giving it the status of a modern classic. I can only imagine the rawness and turbo kick that thing has.

But in the end the Zonda is just one class up from the Porsche. It's a bona-fide supercar. Mid engined, Italian and with a sonorous NA V12.

Artistic styling cues, a low swooping body, fastidious detail and lush materials in the cabin seal the deal. Who cares if the radio sucks.

I'll have a metallic silver Zonda with a tan interior contrasted with black stitching please.
 
Zonda for sure. Porsches are often bought by many somehow rich people because everybody knows Porsche is cool. But Pagani is the choice of real supercar fanatics.

Pretty sure it's the other way around. The GT2 Is "just a Porsche" just like the boxster or a beat up 924 while the Pagani Is "That cool car I saw on top gear"

If this were up to reason I'd choose the Zonda but since I just love Porsches and damn it it's a 993 GT2 I'd have to take that, plus some money left over probably.
 
Choosing between a GT2 and Zonda is like choosing between St. Peter and Jesus, the Zonda will always be more special no matter what. :P
 
In my opinion choosing between a Zonda and a Porsche is like choosing between a legend and a legend, I want both lol but, if I had to pick one it would be the GT2 as it's my all time favourite Porsche.
 
Definitely the Porsche for me. I've always liked Porsches body styles over any Pagani.
 
I'd take the Porsche, I'm a bit of a Porsche fanatic. Plus I'm sure it's easier to live with than a Zonda, less expensive to maintain, and a bit more practical.

Plus having people constantly crowd around your car would probably get old really fast... Especially if you just want to get some milk at the store or something. :P

If you have the money for this choice, you have the money for a £2,000 banger :)
 
Rx7 vs Supra. SUPRA, JUST IS BETTER and also because I'm BIASED to the MKIV D=

Zonda vs GT2. Zonda, I always had a soft spot for them.
