2013 GTA Spano

Vulcano vs Spano - Well, I know absolutely nothing about any of these cars. I've never been so stumped in by a comparison before. I will take the Vulcano because it actually looks like it could be a real production car, the Spano looks too... linear to go into production just yet. I like both designs, but I think the Vulcano looks both better and more finished.

1. Vulcano
2. Spano
 
GR-1 vs GT-90 - The GT-90 looks horrendous, it just is far too early in the development process to be judged yet. The GR-1, on the other hand, looks like it is ready to be sold, it just needs some proper paint and maybe racing stripes. It also looks beautiful, like a modern, yet classic, muscle car. GR-1 it is!

1. GR-1
2. GT-90
 
GT90. Hands down.


I like the GR-1 though because it's like the Daytona Coupe.

I'd also take the Vulcano but it screams super curvy C3 Vette, hell even the Mako Shark II, converted to look like the C7.
 
Icona Vulcano vs. GTA Spano - Spano, it looks better than the Vulcano.

Results:
1. GTA Spano
2. Icona Vulcano

Ford GT-90 Concept vs. Ford Shelby GR-1 Concept - GR-1, I like the GT90 but it's just too ugly.

1. Ford Shelby GR-1 Concept
2. Ford GT-90 Concept
 
2013 Icona Vulcano vs 2013 GTA Spano; The GTA Spano, because I like the look of it more than the Vulcano.

Ford GT90 vs Ford Shelby GR-1; The GR-1, because like what slashfan has said; it reminds me of the Shelby Daytona Coupe.

Same here, the Vulcano just looks more like a finalized design to me.

Also I'll have the GR1, I just love the way it looks.
 
BRZ vs S2000 vs M3 vs Z3 vs STi vs Westfield vs 911 vs RX-7 vs Silvia

The Westfield is out because while it will probably run circles around the others in fun, the practicality is just about nonexistent. The STi, Silvia and RX-7 are out because they have never interested me. Same goes for the S2000, and the Z3 is out because the Z4 is better. That leaves the BRZ, M3 and 911. The BRZ will surely be a hoot, but compared to the other cars it'll feel cheap and basic as far as day to day use goes. The M3 and 911 offer much more creature comforts, better styling and better performance, but higher maintenance prices. Despite how common they are (well actually, both the M3 and 911 are common), I'll choose the 911. It looks the best, goes plenty fast, will handle great and will sound great too.

CR-V vs RAV4

Unlike every other car enthusiast that ever existed, ever, I don't hate small crossovers with a passion. They make the perfect hooning car, really. Low power to keep you from hitting extralegal speeds any time soon, light steering (which can sometimes be entertaining) and high ground clearance, perfect for driving over obstacles such as curbs and diesel manual wagons. Neither are particularly attractive, and both have a decent interior. Both have similar performance, similar gas mileage and a very similar price. I'll choose the Honda, because it looks a bit better on the outside. The bulging taillights that sit atop the rear of the RAV4 just mess the whole design up, I think.

Please, choose one, and only one.
 
A6 3.0 TFSI vs. M37 vs. 535i vs. GS350 vs. E350

I'd rather have the M37, it's the second least expensive and most powerful car of the bunch.
 
Lexus if it is the F-Sport, many good things have been said about that car.
I also have been in one and the interior is wonderful.
Plus I really dont need the power of the Audi and Im not a fan of the A6's rear end.

Ford GT-90 Concept or Ford Shelby GR-1 Concept?

I'll have the GT-90.

I'll take the BMW as it's the nicest looking.

Sedans - The Infiniti is out because while I like it, it just can't be compared to a Mercedes, BMW, Audi or Lexus. The BMW is out because I hate BMW's new styling and I've never been a fan of their engines, either. That leaves the boring Audi, the rather disappointing Merc and the interesting Lexus. I assume none of these cars will be tuned (AMG, F-Sport, etc.), so it's all about the comfort and daily drive factor. Based on that, the Lexus is out, sadly. I love a good Lexus but I just won't feel as dominant on the roads as I would want to if I were to drive that. Now, Audi or Merc?
Audi. I wanted to pick the Merc so badly, Mercedes are on my top 5 car manufacturers list, but I couldn't. Rather disappointing...

1. Audi A6
2. Mercedes-Benz E350
3. Lexus GS350
4. BMW 535i
5. Infiniti M37


Pontiac Grand Prix vs Mustang GT - I prefer the looks of the Grand Prix, but I will choose the Mustang. A 5-Speed, especially a Manual, screams "Muscle Car!", while a 4-Speed Auto just reminds me of a Honda City Turbo II. I think only Kei cars should have 4 gears, and the Pontiac is not a Kei car. I honestly would have chosen it if it had a decent transmission system.

1. Mustang GT
2. Pontiac Grand Prix
 
GT-90 vs GR-1: I'll take the GR-1. It looks cleaner.

New supercars: GTA Spano, it's borrowed the Viper's sledgehammer V10.

Sedans: A6 without doubt.

Muscle cars: Mustang.
 
'01 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP Special Edition vs. '01 Ford Mustang GT

I had a '98 GTP coupe as my very first car and I enjoyed it. However, at that time if I could have found an '00 or newer Mustang GT within my budget, I would have had that instead. With that being said, I'd rather have the Mustang.
 
Your concerned by the number of gears and not the fact that it is automatic?

That too, but I think having 4 gears in a car would annoy me more than having it auto. An auto transmission has its benefits (cruising, etc), but 4 gears is just an embarrassment. Just my opinion...
