No, I think it'll be better to keep them together. That's consistent with how wiki and Bugatti themselves list the 57 and 57S together. Even though the Type 57S had significant changes to it, it's still part of that related family of vehicles, and I think 1 poll for that would be better than having two unnecessarily separate ones.

The two chassis, and all its different coachwork variants, can be lumped into one poll for the Type 57.

I will be making another nomination sometime tonight/tomorrow as well.

[All Your Base]

Time to see if the Miura will finally get a mate!


An engineering tour de force of awe-inspiring power and ability, the 1987-88 Porsche 959 was the "everything car" enthusiasts dream about - the one that can do it all.

1986 - 1989 Porsche 959​

Source.


The Porsche 959 was one of the 80’s ultimate supercars and may also be considered as the first car of the supercar species. 959 also stands for the superb technology platform in which the latest technical innovations from the famous Porsche development centre Weissach were included. It’s only rival at the time was another legend: the radical lightweight bi-turbocharged Ferrari F40.


Production Year: 1986 - 1989

Body Style: 2-door Coupe (uberwagen i.e the Beetle's class of car)

Price: $225,000

Engine: 2.85 liter, twin-turbo flat 6, boxer engine.

Power Output: 450 Horsepower

Torque: 370 lb ft

Top speed: 195 MPH (314 KM/H)

0-60: 3.7 seconds

Transmission: 6-speed manual

Length: 4,260 mm (168 in)

Width: 1,840 mm (72 in)

Height: 1,280 mm (50 in)

Tires: Bridgestone RE71 Denloc, especially made for the 959.

Drivetrain: Rear engined, 4 Wheel Drive.

My Take On This: There aren't enough Porsches on the list. Here you go! Have fun putting it next (or above) the F40!

I was actually thinking about nominating that. Now, for a car that was mentioned many times on the Cool Wall, but never nominated. Presenting the...

1984-1987 Ferrari 288 GTO

Specs:​

Body style: Two-door Berlinetta (coupe)
Engine: 2.9L Type F114B twin turbo V8 @ 3,997 cc

Spoiler: More pictures

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Question, has the Mk.1 GT40 been nominated yet?

 

[All Your Base]

@RandomCarGuy17: No, it has not. The Mark III has, but Mark I > III anyday.
@Jahgee1124: I recommend you stop this early, because it is flooding with nominations.

 

[GranTurismo916]

@Jahgee1124: I recommend you stop this early, because it is flooding with nominations.

Yes, please. I'm dying over here.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Wait, one...more...NOMINATION!

Give me time to enter the info please.

More pictures here!

[All Your Base]

Wait, nevermind.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

You forgot almost everything that's required.

That's why I said GIVE ME TIME. I needed to post before I edit before anyone says STOP.

EDIT: It's just whenever I want to post something, I take too much time to get everything I want and then out of nowhere, someone else posts something that makes my post pointless and I'm sick of that happening.

 

[ildd]

After disregarding my E34 M5 nomination due to already on the list, I nominate the:

[Jahgee]

If it makes it to 80, I'll stop it. 2 more polls go up in 2 and a half hours, so that means there's room for 8 more nominations.

Wait, one...more...NOMINATION!

@Beeblebrox237 - If you're including all Integrales on there, the power figures should read 182-250bhp - the Japan only Final Edition model has a little more power.

Thanks for that, I didn't know about that model!

Honda Accord Type R

Honda Accord Type R, 1998-2003
Body Style: Four door saloon
Engine: 2157cc straight four with variable valve timing
Power Output: 209hp
Torque: 164lbfft
Weight: 1,348kg
Transmission: 5 speed manual
Drivetrain: Front engine, front wheel drive
Additional Information: The sensible, grown-up car of the Type R family, the Honda Accord Type R is the most unusual thing - a Japanese car that was never sold in Japan. Designed and built in the UK by Honda at Swindon, the Accord Type R used the European market Accord chassis and a considerably larger 2.2 litre engine than its more buzzy and frantic Civic and Integra siblings to produce a performance sedan still sought after today.

The Accord Type R also had a dose of F1 heritage. While Ayrton Senna was busy being responsible for how the NSX handled, Williams-Honda world champion Damon Hill had a finger in the ATR's behaviour. "It's quite good", he was heard to enthuse once - and he kept his personal Type R for over a decade.

And the one in the photographs? That was ours.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I miss the Accord Type R from GT2 quite a bit, I haven't seen it usable in any racing game/sim every since.

I was going to nominate the Pagoda SL, but @GTP_Ingram already beat me to it. Curse you! So instead, I'll do:

1956-1959 BMW 507

Body Style: 2 door convertible
Engine: 3168cc V8
Power Output: 148 HP
Torque: 173 lb-ft
Weight: 1330 kg/2930 lb
Transmission: 4 speed manual
Drivetrain: Front engine, rear wheel drive
Additional Information: Car was a commercial flop due to how expensive it was when new. Despite the price, BMW lost money on each one made, so much so that it nearly took the company to bankruptcy. Bond Girl Ursula Andress owned one. So did Elvis Presley.​

 

[PeterJB]

1956-1971 Morris Minor 1000

Body style: 2/4-door saloon, 2-door convertible, 2-door estate
