GT2 RS vs Scud - Scud. I prefer the looks of the Scud. Plus only 911 I really like is the 70's Carrera RS.

M3 Family - M3 E30 for me please.

NSX Vs BMW - I would have the BMW. Although I'd prefer a Batmobile. It's still rarer, more practical and probably better to drive. Only saying that because of it's race pedigree. And of the 2 NSX's we did have in town. A yellow one crashed through a wall and into the river on a wet day a few years ago. Still don't how he did it. Not much traffic and coming up to junction. I presume something with the brakes. Oh well. nvm.
 
MB CLS550 vs. VW CC: They are both going to be awful to own, but I'd probably go with the CC just because it's probably cheaper in the long run to maintain.

911 GT2 RS vs. F430 Scuderia: The F430 mainly because it isn't a Porsche and has a funny name. Cars with funny names are cool.

E30 vs E36 vs E46 vs E92: The E46, it's always been one of my favorite BMW's and I think it looks just about right. Anything older looks way to boxy and anything newer has to much Chris Bangle.

NSX v. E9: The E9, it's way classier and would probably be more practical. I mean I like the NSX, I just don't think I'd ever want to own one.
 
911 GT2 RS - I'd probably never be able to handle it, but hey at least I'll be able to enjoy it on the track.

BMW M3 E46, still in the list of cars I must own before I die. Preferably in a BMW Individual Purple or a tastefully modified HPA version (no stupid ugly wide body).

BMW E9, it looks awesome! The NSX is a great car, but I'd still like the E9 because of its rarity and looks - which is its selling factor IMO - no one else in the city or even for several hundred miles would probably have one.

Fix the C32B into a TT, 600-900hp MR that can eat Vettes, Vipers, Skylines and Supras for dinner. Plus I can drive it everyday, because Honda.

Twin Turbo'ing a Honda engine will never promise reliability.
 
M3 Family - I like the E36 M3, but it has to be in Euro trim. If not, then I'll have the E46. :)

NSX vs E9 - NSX, because it's more livable.

Ferrari F40 or 458? How do you like your Ferrari? The one that you have to master? Or the one that simplifies everything? For me, F40, I like Ferraris that you have to master

The Ferrari F40, not because I have to master it - because of course I haven't driven either, so I wouldn't know which is harder to master.
 
Smart Fortwo vs Toyota/Scion iQ: The Smart car because it means I wouldn't have to drive a Scion.

Ferrari F40 vs. Ferrari 458: Ferrari 458, it looks better and is actually something you could live with. It also isn't swimming in late 80's early 90's design cues and technology.

^ I'd go with the Toyota's version iQ, because 1.3L 6M/T. Next will be Scion's version because it looks better than the Toyota's spec. :)

^ Definitely the F40, you're a MAN when you drive one, hard-edged, raw, and it symbolizes the Mafia Boss' ideas (aka. Enzo). Most of the 458's here in Vegas are driven by women. :indiff:

Unless I lower the psi boost and have a different ECU tune that can run on E85.

The F40 is a twin turbo V8, no assists or driver aids, MR, alot of torque and 80's-90's supercar handling than can take you out. Now that's a challenge. ;)

You're from Vegas as well?! What part of the city are you at? I'm at the Southern Highlands area. :)

Back on topic:

Scion iQ and the F40 for me, espically the F40. :D

That's still not going to promise the renowned Honda reliability...just saying.

And yes I know; I prefer the F40 for it's rawness and it's turbochargers. But a 458 Italia is just as much of a challenge with the aids all off. And let's face it, no one wants to be wrestling a car when driving down the road to the shops etc...oh and the 458 is more powerful.

I just see the "Challenge" argument (this isn't pointed towards you VSpec) as irrelevant. If you're going to drive the cars hard, you'd turn the aids off in the 458. For normal daily driving you wouldn't be pushing either of the cars to have a challenge at 30-70 MPH.

^ Wow, you're well of!! I'm from the ghetto Charleston/Rainbow area...

Yeah the area where I'm at is mostly desert, since it's new area and it's slowly building once in a while. But the cool part you can see cyotes and jackrabbits out here.

Yeah, I know the Charleston area is wild also. :lol: I grew up on Nellis Blvd, nice area once, but when I visit Nellis now, it's a mad house, but not as bad as North LV.

Yeah I see what you mean on the reliable factor of the C32B. Even if I put forced induction on a NSX's C-Series and run a E85 tune, yeah it would have a somewhat good mpg compared to running octane/racing gasoline. But having a estimated 19-25mpg is alright. But if I wanted a fast, fun and efficent Honda, I'd get a Civic Si and put a B18 engine inside and leave it as NA.

Which is true, both Ferarris are monsters, but the F40, though not as powerful as the 458, it's still mechanical, which would be a toughie. Both cars without aids would be similar to riding a wild bronco in a tornado just driving either Ferarri with no TCS and ABS to pick up some milk:scared:. I know that the 458 has more power over the F40, but I do appreciate both models and if I had the money, they will be in the garage. But I'll try to drive them slowly without aids only on a track though.

Lambo Mirua vs. Ferarri Daytona: Hard choice, but I'll take the Mirua, since it's has a sleeker design and a MR layout.
 
Miura. The Ferrari just doesn't look all that special to me. I'm sure neither of them are very reliable either...
 
Lambo Miura a vs. Ferrari Daytona: Can I just have both? :lol: The Mirua would be excellent to drive through the mountains listening to "On Days Like These" by Matt Monro. But then again the Ferrari Daytona is one of the best looking cars ever made. I suppose if I had to choose it would be the Dayton.
