Bottom one. Shark!
 
I'm liking the looks of that Aston, I'll take that.
 
Jag.

I hate to be that guy but Roger the Horse could you put the model of what the cars are on your posts?
 
Aston, because it has no fin. I'd prefer this over either:

No Badasp, it's always funny to watch that guy failing to work out what the cars are.

I actually think the fin is a nice touch. Something you don't see often. In fact it reminded me of these Corvette's.

Not that I don't like the fin, I do, but I think the car would look cleaner without it.
 
That is true.

Oh c'mon, why do you make me choose between those 2?! That's just plain difficult. Oh screw it, I choose the DBR1 aston martin because I love the grill a bit more on it and the shade of green. :D

The Jaguar D-Type is actually one of the first Jags I knew about oddly enough when I was little, I saw one in a book and had a hotwheels D-Type at one point. Although, I always found Aston Martins more stylish.


My turn again:

RS2 if I didn't have to pay the repair bills. And that is coming from a guy who likes Volvos.

I'll have the 850R. I like Volvo wagons.
 
RS2, it's a legend.
 
If I can modify it, RS2. If its stock, Volvo.

So in the end Im going for the Volvo. It's got some touring car cred too. :)
 
Aston DBR1 vs. D-Type: Toughie, since I like these two classics. But I'll take the D-Type, since it has that unique style.

D-Type
DBR1

850R vs. RS2: Ugh, not another hard one..... I'll go with the RS2, because I5 and Porsche tuned engine.

That's a tough one, but I'd take the Mach 1.
 
Mach 1 vs. Gran Torino: Tough one, but I'll go with the Mach 1.
 
Mach 1, as long as it has better rear tyre fitment.

Meh. So far as I can see I get the choice of either the Alpine, that flatbed truck, the Cosmo or any one of the many Lotuses in the picture.

You get the choice of the main car in the picture which makes the WYR between the Lotus Elan, Alpine and Mazda Cosmo.
EDIT: I'd have the Aston because it looks better, Audi because it's the better all round car in my opinion and the Gran Torino because the Mustang is too much of an obvious choice if I was going to import one here.
