(IMO):
Half of the cars everybody has mentioned are HORRIBLE, especially all the japanese Cars.
I'll take ANY Mercedes-Benz, ///AMG (That includes the Zonda), BRABUS, Bentley, Aston Martin, Rolls-Royce or Ferrari.
Why?
-Class
-Quality
-Prestige
-Comfort
-Power (speed, HP, torque...)
MB & Ferrari > All ;) |

Reliability? Who mentioned reliability?
...Not me...
And Ferraris are classy, are built with supreme quality, are very prestigious and are very powerful (dey do lack a bit of the comfort thingy...)

Or the Chrysler ME-FOUR TWELVE
| quote: | | Horsepower is rated at 850 at 6250 rpm, with 850 pound-feet of torque anywhere between 2500 and 4500 rpm. According to Chrysler, the ME goes from 0-60 in 2.9 seconds, 0-100 in 6.2, the quarter-mile in 10.6 at 142 mph, and a top speed of over 240 mph. |

Or the damn sexy, Shelby Daytona Cobra coupe.

I was gonna post the 2000 Dodge Viper Hennessy 800TT, but compared to the other cars, the Viper is crap. I would post a Maserati, but I dont follow that car company much, so I wouldnt know what they have in the concept that would be hot.
2004 Maserati GranSport (nothing special, but I like it)

i guess thats why the team oreca viper was doing so horrible in the Le Mans series:rolleyes:
| quote: | | Under the direction of Hugues de Chaunac and ORECA, the Viper GTS R/T has won five international championships, including two ALMS GTS-class titles in 1999 and 2000, and the FIA GT Championship in 1997, 1998 and 1999. In 2000, the factory-backed Vipers finished first and second at Le Mans for the third time in succession, and scored an outright victory at the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona. |

The point I was trying to make is that... the Viper is just so... generic... at this point, in my eyes, the Viper isnt even 'exotic' anymore - to me, its just another sports car. |

Weight 1100kg
619BHP At the FLy
515 BHP AT THE WHEELS.

Top speed of 207@9000rpm, 0-60 in 3.56, 0-100 in 7.63. 60-100 in 4.07 :)

if you want to do a 0-60 battle i think this one will put up a decent fight. Car and driver recorded the 1994 Boss mustang at a 1.9sec 0-60 time. *on street tires*
and the other American muscle... the 2000 Camaro ZL-1
Put down a quarter of 9.52 and a top speed of 230 MPH. On street tires. Both factory cars... well produced by the manufacturer at least.
But then again, Americans can't build cars:rolleyes: |
