1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass vs Buick GSX Stage 1; I'll have the Buick GSX please. That is one of my favorite Buicks after all.

2013 VW Beetle vs 2012 Mini Cooper S Baker Street edition; I think I'll go with the mini since it's a bit more interesting than the Beetle & it's a bit quicker.
 
F1 GTR

or

CLK GTR

Definitely the CLK. I love the legendary McLaren, but it just can't beat a CLK!

BAC Mono vs. Formula Ford 1.0T Ecoboost - Formula Ford, because it's not a BAC Mono.

Aww, what's with the BAC Mono hate? :(

1972 Cutlass

vs

Buick GSX Stage 1

Ooh, tough one. I'll take the Cutlass, I've always loved those things.

Beetle

or

Mini Cooper S[/QUOTE]

I despise the Mini Cooper, but I just couldn't pick a Beetle, so I guess I'll [I]have[/I] to take it. I've heard good things about the new Beetle, but the styling really puts me off. If they restyled the hood, tail and wheel arches, I would have probably taken it over the Cooper.
 
You're forgetting that I want to look stupid.

I'll take the Beetle.

Well you do a good job at it.


I'll have the Panoz. More interesting exterior.

Edit: Just remembered, interesting looks has nothing to do with how well a race car will perform, in that case, uh, I guess I'll take the Porsche as I know it better.
 
At least refer to it by the make... :rolleyes: If you don't like the cars in the comparison, just skip over it. Don't say something that makes you look stupid.

I agree!

Aren't both of them just overpriced Golfs, though?
 
The Stagea's a bit stupid looking, what with that huge wing on the rear. Its bumpers look slightly too big for it as well. The Subaru's a neat little wagon, but like any Subaru wagon, it's inherentley nerdy, which is a bit of a turnoff. Granted, the Volvo's not exactly the epitome of cool either, but it's much more mature than the other two cars. It looks a whole lot better and has a more luxurious interior, plus it's got a five cylinder, which by definition is cool. I'll take the V70.
 
MGB GT vs Triumph GT6; I think I'll go with the MGB. I for some reason like the MGB.

Pure Sport Wagons; I think of the 3, I would take the Subaru Impreza WRX Sti Wagon, the Volvo V70R as a 2nd choice, and the Nissan Stagea is in last.
 
For some reason the Panoz vs Porsche is a tough one for me. I'd picking Panoz, just because the FR layout in that car seems exotic to me.

I much prefer the looks of the Triumph GT6, so I'd pick that one.

Lastly Volvo, because it's a sleeper.
 
Oldsmobile Cutlass vs. Buick GSX Stage 1 - Buick, looks better.

Volkswagen Beetle/Coccinelle/Maggiolino/Fusca vs. Mini Cooper S - Easily the Mini.

Porsche 911 GT1 Straßenversion vs. Panoz Esperante GTR-1 - Another easy one, the 911.

MG B GT vs. Triumph GT6 - Triumph, rarer around here (seen about 2 MG Bs).

Subaru Impreza Wagon WRX STi vs. Nissan Stagea vs. Volvo V70 - Easily the WRX, I don't really care for the V70 and the Stagea is a bit overdone.

Results:
1. Subaru Impreza Wagon WRX STi
2. Volvo V70
3. Nissan Stagea

Nissan Leaf Police Car vs. Chevrolet Volt/Holden Volt/Opel/Vauxhall Ampera Police Car vs. Toyota Prius Police Car - Volt if I can get it in the Ampera style.

Results:
1. Opel Ampera Police Car
2. Toyota Prius Police Car
3. Nissan Leaf Police Car
 
I'll take the Opel Ampera/Chevrolet Volt, but I honestly want to have all 3 police cars smashed by a piano.
 
The Volt is the only hybrid I'll like to drive along with the Tesla which isn't on the list, so I'll pick the Volt.
 
Breadvan for me too.

I don't want to be all "omg it's FWD, hurr durr" but the TT is kind of like an anti-sleeper version of a Golf, and that's not my style.
