Would you rather?

[JAHHAJ]

Audi and BMW are close, I'd go for the BMW.

 

[cbarbosa]

Audi

 

[Dagger311]

BMW, more expensive, I could sell it off and buy a better rwd car, like A Camaro.

 

[mustang fanatic]

BMW.

 

[GranTurismo916]

McLaren 650S
OR

Pagani Zonda C12 S?

650S, I never liked that version of the Zonda.

Tuner time!

Mazda RX-7 FD3S

OR

Toyota Supra SZ

Supra, easy.

Ford GT

Vs

C7 Corvette
View attachment 187068

Umm, GT. That's one of the easiest in here.

2014 Jaguar F-Type V6 S vs. 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG

F-Type, same as the GT vs. C7 one.

Jag all the way.

Drivetrain battle:

Ford Focus RS500 (FWD)

OR
​

BMW 1M Coupe (RWD)

OR
​

Audi RS3 Sportback (AWD)

I mean, I love AWD, but for the car I have to go with RWD, the 1M.

Results:
1. BMW 1M Coupe
2. Ford Focus RS500
3. Audi RS3 Sportback

Based on drivetrains:
1. AWD
2. RWD
2 (tied). FWD

Drivetrain Battle-Hgnnnnn.... I love the Ferd, in fact I love it so much it hurts, but the BMW is so much more brilliant (and the sound it makes is awsome). And I would choose any AWD car over FWD or RWD, but just not that one.

 

[CTznOfTime]

1M

 

[Azure Flare]

I'll take the Ferd, because it deserves some love dammit!

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Ford.

 

[Dagger311]

Hey, if the BMW weren't so valuable, definitely would've been the Ford.

 

[Azure Flare]

If BMWs are so valuable, how do you explain the depreciation they have?

Oh snap! XD

 

[GranTurismo916]

I'll take the Ferd, because it deserves some love dammit!

If the 1M wasn't so beautiful, I'd totally take the Focus.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Focus RS500, because FOCUS!

 

[JAHHAJ]

If BMWs are so valuable, how do you explain the depreciation they have?

Where I live they don't depreciate much because German cars tend to hold their prices well unless it's a performance variant, the M cars definitely depreciate a lot more than the normal BMWs considering you can now buy a BMW M3 E90/E92 for around £20,000.

 

[AlvaroF]

If the BMW wasn't brilliant in every way I would take the Focus in less than an heartbeat

BMW 1M 100%. It's a future classic

 

[Dagger311]

They don't really depreciate locally. There's a 2009 7 series for sale right down the road at 42,000, according to edmunds, the average is 37, 000

But German luxury is expensive.

 

[Dagger311]

Well, I was waiting for someone else to post, but I'll just go ahead and post it. Country vs Country!

Representing America, we have the new Chevrolet Camaro Z/28

With an MSRP just under 75,000 USD, this car is the cheapest on the list, but don't let that dissuade you. The engine is a 7.0 V8 with 505 horsepower, 481 ft-lbs of torque, and a six-speed manual transmission.

Still not sold? Well, this Camaro also features 14 inch Carbon-Ceramic Brake discs that'll stop it almost as fast as the engine can make it go.

Now, from Germany, we have a car with stunning looks and amazing performance, the 2014 CL63 AMG.

This car has a 5.5 Biturbo V8 rated at 536 horsepower and 590 ft-lbs of torque. That gets to the wheels via a 7 speed automated manual transmission. And at a starting price of 154,600 USD, that's quite a deal.

Unfortunately, I can't find any information on the brakes for this, or any other of the contestants. If anyone can find out the data for them, that'd be great.

For Japan, we have none other than Godzilla himself: the 2015 GT-R.

This car has a 3.8 liter Twin Turbocharged engine featuring an astounding 545 horsepower, as well as a six-speed, dual clutch, sequential transmission. It also features all-wheel drive. This car is bested on the drag strip by only a handfull of other supercars, all of them costing much more than the starting price of 101,770 for this GTR.

Now, for Italy, I was going to do the new California, but it's double the cost of the above GTR, so instead, we have a 2005 Ferrari F430 Berlinetta.

All the information about this car is in this link:
http://www.auto.com/cars/Ferrari-F430-Berlinetta-2005-ZFFEW58A850141776#info

The engine makes 490 horsepower, and the transmission is what I'm assuming to be a six-speed manual.

 

[ProjectWHaT]

GTR, because bias

 

[Adamgp]

Z-28.

 

[Dagger311]

As usual, I forgot to give my choice...

The Z/28. Sure, GM is having a lot of trouble, but I'd be willing to risk it for the sound that car makes.
Next, I choose the Mercedes, because German luxury car.
Then, the GTR, because it looks so sexy.
Lastly, the Ferrari, cause it's used. There were no new models around the 100-150,000 range though, so...

 

[JAHHAJ]

As much as I love German cars I have to go for the GT-R.

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Ferrari F430.

 

[CTznOfTime]

This is a nice comparo, but

Hard to choose because each really serve different purposes...

Merc is a GT for intercontinental cruising.
GT-R is a scalpel for shaving time on the track.
Camaro is for Hooning like a 5 year old kid, if possible in a safe and controlled envirinment...
Ferrari for thinking that you are a playboy when all you really are is flamming...

Merc would be my choice

 

[Dagger311]

Merc is a GT for intercontinental cruising.

Okay...

GT-R is a scalpel for shaving time on the track.

I'd say it's really more of a factory drag racer, what with AWD, but it's also really good on a track, so Okay.

Camaro is for Hooning like a 5 year old kid, if possible in a safe and controlled envirinment...

Um... No. That's a Civic Si. The new Z/28 is way too good for "Hooning." it's a fun street car, but made for a track, developed in the green hell, I might add. If you want it that way, all cars that can go over 100 miles an hour are for street racing.

Ferrari for thinking that you are a playboy when all you really are is flamming...

Meh. Ferrari gets a bad rap because certain men think they're "Get laid" cars, but luxury and performance were it's goal.

But anyway, I almost chose the Mercedes, just because of the name, but 'Murica, on my mind.

(Oh, and not trying to come off as hostile by the way)

 

[AlvaroF]

The Camaro is a joke. 7.0L and 505bhp! why not adopt other engine design and keep building engines that size? It's ridiculous. Plus it's suspension is vertebrade shattering hard, not especially fast, super heavy due to it's engine, and handles like a lunatic, which isn't a good thing. It's a hooning car.

The CL is pure GT. Fast but lazy. And I like it a lot. Looks great and it does everthing good, but from that list not my pick.

The Ferrari, doesn't matter how good it is, it will always be the first choice of young billionars or middle-life crisis.

The GT-R, ticks every single box of the above (ok it might be a bit unconfortable and I heard that maintenece costs more than a BMW M...) and therefor my choice

 

[Ameer67]

GT-R.

This guy disagrees about the Camaro (hope I pulled out the right video )

 

[AlvaroF]

Plus one more reason about the Camaro that I forgot: It does not work in Europe!
