Merc,Ford, Challenger, Corona.

1966 Toyota Corolla Coupé (E10)

or


1973 Honda Civic 3-Door

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Civic. Easy.

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Toyota, not a civic fan.

 

[Sage Ages]

Why do I have a feeling you're talking about a different Corona?

 

[Ranman20]

Camaro and Toyota.

 

[GranTurismo916]

Why do I have a feeling you're talking about a different Corona?

EXACTLY what I was thinking.

Toyota Corolla vs. Honda Civic - Corolla, it looks really nice.

2014 Audi R18

2014/15 Toyota TS040

Toyota's very secretive compared to the others

2014/15 Porsche 919

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Porsche.

 

[NoobMan DS]

It's pretty hard to decide because we haven't had a chance to judge their differences in lap times or overall performance. I can only infer that the revised R18 will probably be very effective against the competition, judging from the domination of its previous forms. It also looks the most stunning in that comparison. The lines of the TS040 are somehow reminiscent of the GT-One, which is, in fact, my favorite 90s LMP. But in that picture, the TS040 also looks kinda...squat. The 919 isn't as stunning as the R18 in terms of looks, but I'm much more of a Porsche fan and supporter compared to the other two manufacturers. I'm really looking forward for Porsche to bring up better competition in the top class and reenact their success. Its V4 engine seems very interesting too. We haven't seen a V4 engine put into use in a car for years! V4 may sound rather underwhelming initially, but in the realm of endurance racing, I do get excited in witnessing manufacturers' exercises in deploying and making use of unusual technologies or solutions for performance efficiency. So, I think I'll choose the Porsche 919 in the end.

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Porsche for two reasons.

1. It comes with a driver.

2. Camo looks awesome.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Ford Granada vs. Chevrolet Caprice vs. Dodge Diplomat

All are cars that I don't care about, but I'll pick the Caprice.

1968 Ford Mustang 390 GT 2+2 Fastback vs 1967 Chevrolet Camaro SS vs 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T

Oddly enough, I would pick the Challenger.

1970 Toyota Corona 1700SL (RT94) vs. 1971 Datsun Bluebird 1600 SSS Coupe (510)

Datsun 510

1966 Toyota Corolla Coupé (E10) vs 1973 Honda Civic 3-Door

Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary

or


Lamborghini Diablo SE30 Jota

or


Lamborghini Murciélago 40th Anniversary

or


Lamborghini Aventador LP720-4 50° Anniversario

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Aventador.

 

[ProjectWHaT]

Aventador, because its the newest and the safest, and the fastest, and the best looking (IMO), and the...
You get the idea

 

[GranTurismo916]

safest

 

[ProjectWHaT]

It has traction control, ABS, etc.

 

[NoobMan DS]

...hmm? I think what he said makes perfect sense. Less likely for this to happen in the Aventador: (if you don't turn the traction control off)

 

[Slash]

Countach.

It has traction control, ABS, etc.

Yes because that makes a car "safer". Aids are for sissies who can't drive.

 

[Azure Flare]

I'll have the Aventador, but the Countach needs a big, stupid looking wing to complete it's loony appearance.

Yes because that makes a car "safer". Aids are for sissies who can't drive.

 

[NoobMan DS]

That's alright, you can imagine that it has the wing option fitted.

Personally, I'll take the Diablo SE30 Jota though. Wacky color, yes, but just about the right kind of wacky. Not to the point where my head says, "Heresy!", like this one:

I'm sorry for being worried about my well being and accidentally killing myself in a crash.

Don't drive like a moron.

Murcielago.

I won't, but its more of a just in case your foot gets heavy of something.

All ABS does is prevent the tires from locking up under hard braking. A good driver can do that with non ABS brakes in emergency situations. TCS is just pointless in my opinion, for similar reasons. Manual throttle control.


A lot of this is why I like older cars as well that aren't equipped. More manual control (always a plus), less that can go wrong, less maintenance and less money I have to put into them.

Just curious, but how much experience do you have with emergency driving situations and 0 abs?
Likewise, how much time have you spent behind the wheel of a car capable of accidental power oversteer in dry weather?

What you've said about ABS and TCS sounds cool but really isn't cool anywhere other than a track. There's a reason powerful cars are equipped with TCS and if you think ABS isn't helpful then there's probably no helping you or changing your mind. ABS saves lives, tires, and stopping distances, ABS is indeed very cool.

Btw, I've spent lots of time behind the wheel of both types of cars (abs v. non abs and tcs v. no tcs).
Oh, and just so you know, saying aids are for sissies makes you look like a kid that has no real driving experience, just so you know.
