BMW M3 Lightweight vs. Ford RS200 vs. SRT Viper vs. Jaguar XJR:

Ford rs200 with out a second thought... My favorite car of the 80's, and one of my favorite cars of all time

FC Mazda RX-7 vs Nissan 180SX; The Mazda RX-7, the 180sx doesn't interest me that much.

Here's one from me and it'll be a bit random.

BMW M3 e36 Lightweight, Ford RS200, SRT Viper, or the Jaguar XJR?

I think these are within similar price figures (90-120k).

Ford RS200. Upgrade it to Group B Specs, keeping it road legal, and that is one rare sleeper right there. RICErs would love to see you driving down the road, because they'll challenge you thinking your RS200's a Ferrari
 
Shelby Cobra vs. Factory 5: I'll take the Shelby Cobra easily. ;)

Honda vs. Toyota: I'll have the RAV-4

S13 240SX/180 vs. FC3S RX-7: Tough, but I'll go with the S13 and swap a SR20DET and build a twin turbo and lower the car and make a SR pushing 450hp for drifting. ;)

M3 Lightweight vs. RS200 vs. SRT GTS vs. XJR: I'll have the Trio. The M3 for daily, RS for rally racing and C&C and the Viper for the track/weekend warrior. If it's not the trio vs 1, then I'll have the Viper.
 
$90k to $120k cars - I have no interest whatsoever in the RS200, so that's out. I think I'd take the SRT over the BMW, but the Jag is just dominant in this comparison (at least, for my taste). I like big saloons and the Jag really scores some brownie points. Jag it is!

1. Jaguar XJR
2. SRT Viper
3. BMW M3
4. Ford RS200
 
Plymouth Superbird

OR
Ford RS200

Plymouth vs RS200 - In the UK, I would be forced to pick the RS200, but I don't want to. I don't care about the looks or drag racing potential, I just want that engine! There is nothing I want more than to own a rumbling V8, something that vibrates the pavement as you drive (not literally, of course). So, I'll choose the RS200 for the UK, but I would not pick it under different circumstances. If that Superbird had been a Chevelle, I would have taken it regardless of the roads. Sigh... I want my Chevelle.

1. RS200 (grumble grumble)
2. Superbird
 
As previously stated, the RS2000 is as interesting to me as a pile jar of dirt. (:lol:)

The Superbird, on the other hand, is one of my dream cars.

I don't really think I need to say which one I prefer...

Definitely the RS200 :sly:
 
Jaguar F-Type Project 7 vs Porsche 991 GT3 - Sadly, the Porsche isn't the RS model, so it's less impressive. It's still absolutely gorgeous though and is likely to be lighter than the Jag, which I like. I've also seen a few of them in London and they look stunning, almost as good as GT-Rs. I'll take the Porsche in white with black rims!

1. Porsche 991 GT3
2. Jaguar F-Type Project 7
 
Porsche. Nimbler and likely quicker round a track. Plus Porsche just has a tendency to make damn good drivers cars.

Also if Im not mistaken, the Jag is heavier and has an auto which for its aspirations to be a track car, doesn't make sense.

The GT3 has a PDK, just so you know.
 
Plymouth Superbird vs. Ford RS200 - RS200, I like this car a bit more than the Superbird/Charger Daytona.

Results:
1. Ford RS200
2. Plymouth Superbird

Jaguar Project 7 vs. Porsche 911 GT3 - I rather have an F-Type Coupe, so I'm gonna have to go with the 911.

Results:
1. Porsche 911 GT3
2. Jaguar Project 7
 
Plymouth Superbird vs Ford RS200; I like the Superbird, but I LOVE the RS200. So, RS200 it is. Plus, I think the RS200 would turn more heads where I live since European Fords are a rarity in the US.

Jaguar Project 7 vs. Porsche 911 GT3; the Jag since I think it's a bit more rare than the 911.

Well thats obvious, we all knew that long ago. Heard it a dozen times.

Which shifts faster, an auto or a double clutch?
Which weighs less, an auto or a double clutch?

Generally the double clutch box excels in both criteria and is thus more suitable for a track car.

Anything else you'd like to point out?
