0-to 60mph (100km/h): 6.9 seconds (DSG) / 7.1 seconds (Manual)

Top Speed: 147mph (237km/h)

Transmission: 6-speed DSG / 6-speed manual

Length: 4216 mm / 166.0 in

Front Track: 1539 mm / 60.6 in

Based on the Mk5 Golf, the Golf GTI was a return to form for the marquee 'Golf GTI', the classless car for every occassion, and every person. A seemingly plain exterior, with subtle details to a standard Golf that only true car enthusiasts would spot, enlarged 17 inch wheels, red brake calipers, a honeycomb grill with red accent, and two GTI badges front and rear seperate it from the rest of the range.

inb4 everyone uses that one Top Gear special to declare it an enormous heap and a glorified Toyota, and a hairdresser's car because it's a convertible.

I repeat, this thread is for nominations and other formal cool wall related posts only. Save discussion of the vehicles for the actual threads.

Also, @Murcie_LP640, I believe that you are only supposed to nominate one model, not a set of racing regulations. Refer to the OP for more details.

Well, I nominated the COT that was one car with multiple models that are identical, and it looks like that's what the V8 Supercars have now, if his post is any indication.

 

[Murcie_LP640]

@Roger the Horse

Car of the Future is a singular control car with different body shells over the top.

Essentially I nominated that with the NASCAR CoT in mind, as @Jahgee1124 stated.

 

[Techy]

2013+ Ferrari LaFerrari

Engine: 6.3 L V12 w/ electric motor and KERS (963 HP, 663 ft-lb --- w/o electric motor: 789 HP, 516 ft-lb)

Curb weight: 1,255 kg
Top speed: 217 mph
​

It's probably far-fetched to suggest a supercar, esp. a Ferrari, but since we have the P1 and 918, why not include the LaFerrari (oh, it's name...)?

Think she'll beat this?

Personally, I think that if the Alfa can't top the Lambo, nothing can.

Realistically, that Miura's feeling pretty lonely. It needs a hug.

I skimmed through the list, and i couldn't find the car i intend to put next to that Miura. And it's not Italian.
