1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass vs Buick GSX Stage 1; I'll have the Buick GSX please. That is one of my favorite Buicks after all.

2013 VW Beetle vs 2012 Mini Cooper S Baker Street edition; I think I'll go with the mini since it's a bit more interesting than the Beetle & it's a bit quicker.
 
F1 GTR

or

CLK GTR

Definitely the CLK. I love the legendary McLaren, but it just can't beat a CLK!

BAC Mono vs. Formula Ford 1.0T Ecoboost - Formula Ford, because it's not a BAC Mono.

Aww, what's with the BAC Mono hate? :(

1972 Cutlass

vs

Buick GSX Stage 1

Ooh, tough one. I'll take the Cutlass, I've always loved those things.

Beetle

or

Mini Cooper S[/QUOTE]

I despise the Mini Cooper, but I just couldn't pick a Beetle, so I guess I'll [I]have[/I] to take it. I've heard good things about the new Beetle, but the styling really puts me off. If they restyled the hood, tail and wheel arches, I would have probably taken it over the Cooper.
 
You're forgetting that I want to look stupid.

I'll take the Beetle.

Well you do a good job at it.


I'll have the Panoz. More interesting exterior.

Edit: Just remembered, interesting looks has nothing to do with how well a race car will perform, in that case, uh, I guess I'll take the Porsche as I know it better.
 
At least refer to it by the make... :rolleyes: If you don't like the cars in the comparison, just skip over it. Don't say something that makes you look stupid.

I agree!

Aren't both of them just overpriced Golfs, though?
 
The Stagea's a bit stupid looking, what with that huge wing on the rear. Its bumpers look slightly too big for it as well. The Subaru's a neat little wagon, but like any Subaru wagon, it's inherentley nerdy, which is a bit of a turnoff. Granted, the Volvo's not exactly the epitome of cool either, but it's much more mature than the other two cars. It looks a whole lot better and has a more luxurious interior, plus it's got a five cylinder, which by definition is cool. I'll take the V70.
 
MGB GT vs Triumph GT6; I think I'll go with the MGB. I for some reason like the MGB.

Pure Sport Wagons; I think of the 3, I would take the Subaru Impreza WRX Sti Wagon, the Volvo V70R as a 2nd choice, and the Nissan Stagea is in last.
 
For some reason the Panoz vs Porsche is a tough one for me. I'd picking Panoz, just because the FR layout in that car seems exotic to me.

I much prefer the looks of the Triumph GT6, so I'd pick that one.

Lastly Volvo, because it's a sleeper.
 
Oldsmobile Cutlass vs. Buick GSX Stage 1 - Buick, looks better.

Volkswagen Beetle/Coccinelle/Maggiolino/Fusca vs. Mini Cooper S - Easily the Mini.

Porsche 911 GT1 Straßenversion vs. Panoz Esperante GTR-1 - Another easy one, the 911.

MG B GT vs. Triumph GT6 - Triumph, rarer around here (seen about 2 MG Bs).

Subaru Impreza Wagon WRX STi vs. Nissan Stagea vs. Volvo V70 - Easily the WRX, I don't really care for the V70 and the Stagea is a bit overdone.

Results:
1. Subaru Impreza Wagon WRX STi
2. Volvo V70
3. Nissan Stagea

Nissan Leaf Police Car vs. Chevrolet Volt/Holden Volt/Opel/Vauxhall Ampera Police Car vs. Toyota Prius Police Car - Volt if I can get it in the Ampera style.

Results:
1. Opel Ampera Police Car
2. Toyota Prius Police Car
3. Nissan Leaf Police Car
 
The Volt is the only hybrid I'll like to drive along with the Tesla which isn't on the list, so I'll pick the Volt.
 
Breadvan for me too.

I don't want to be all "omg it's FWD, hurr durr" but the TT is kind of like an anti-sleeper version of a Golf, and that's not my style.
