Ultimate Car?

Supercar The new Ford GT.

Family Nissan Ultima V6. Most of the serious bits same as their top of the line, performance tires and suspension, excellent performance, seats 5 VERY comfortably, quiet and well appointed, and is taut without being punishing. (Honda Accord V6 would be a toss-in here as well.)

Classic 1937 Deusenberg SJ.

 

Just a suggestion..when you post your Top 3, how about scamming some photos off the web and posting them next to your choices. The cars between the UK and the US are very different, as it is all over the world, and some won't have a clue what car you are thinking of

 

Supercar Any Aston Martin.

Family Honda Legend or Accord.

Classic Ford GT 351 HO, or a '67 Mustang.

 

A super car to me is just the fastest car out there that looks good ,straight line accelleration the most important aspect,handling and top speed arnt that important to me,thus the ultimate supercar has to be

For even more affordable excitement,,it doesnt look that good to me but punches the numbers 0-60 in under 2.5 secs

BUT Ferrari's will always hold a place in my heart

Family car has to be the latest range rover,celebs who own them say its like driving an aeroplane the comfort level is so great,why the idiots called it vogue though

supercar-viper... i know its cliche but well i want one damnit...

family car... i'd vote for viper but i don't want to be repetitive so i'll stick with a nice chevy monte carlo....

classic car... its a toss up between a 68 charger and a 1939 ford. amazingly thats the name of the car.... ford..... how catchy....
Think i'll stick with the charger...

 

Supercar 06 Viper coupe http://www.allpar.com/cars/viper/coupe.html
($83,000)

Family, Chrysler 300

Classic

For now anyway on the classic.
maybe an early jag e-type coupe.

 

I sat in a viper for the first time 2 days ago. Very nice. The 06 has such a nice look, combined look of alot of different time proven rides. I about peed myself when I saw it on the showroom floor.

Just fantastic styling, super comfy interior too.

 

Super - Mitsubishi GTO (for the UK market)

Family - Beamer 7 Series

Classic - Viper

 

Supercar: Porche 911 Turbo, GT2, or Carerra GT; I cannot decide.

Family: Audi S8 Wagon

Classic: Ferrari 250 Testarossa

but overall ultimate? Nissan Skyline GTR R34 - just for the sheer uniqueness (since it was not sold in America) and overall badassness; I would be hard pressed to choose between this and a Subaru Impreza 22B or Prodrive P1, but I'd have to give the nod to the Nissan.

 

OOO didnt pick one, of course being a red blooded male, the Mclaren

More specifically the Mclaren F1 LM Le mans '95' only five were made the ultimate absolute no compromise super car,still the fastest accellerating,best power to weight ration of any modern super car 680bhp per ton and it was made ten years ago,faster than a ferrari enzo 0-60 2.9 secs,central driving position,3 seater for two chicks

Super: www.panther-car-club.de
Back in my teen years, there was a magazine called Sports Car Graph here in the states….they were showing a new six wheel sports car, it was being built in the UK. The car was a convertible only, no top….it used US power, with a V-8 from one of the GM cars, twin turbos….lots of power….because it came only as a convertible, and came with AC, it has a large open area to cool…the four wheels in front…were to help with braking, and hydroplaning steering, the idea being the front wheel would squeegee the water off the road, and the 2nd set of wheels could steer the car….the car was said to achieve plus 200 MPH


Family: http://www.blue-bird.com/products/coach/450lxi.php
we didn’t have one, but it could move my family around quite nicely

For Classic: In 1971 I was in high school, my girlfriend’s father had a 1953 TR-3, and had a TR-5 S6 OHV engine in it….he was rebuilding it over the summer, and when ever it was between shops, and at home, he let me drive it, about two months altogether….it was a nice change from my 1959 Ford pickup

...wobbles

 

Supercar
Veyron (beats the Mclaren F1 to 200MPH while the F1 has a rolling start of 120MPH!)

Family
2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STi

Classic
1967 Ford Shelby GT500
or
1990 Chevy Camaro IROC-Z28

 

A couple of cars that havnt been mentioned that are insane and kinda production\prototype which I love are these,the TVR cerbera speed 12 with a 12 cylinder 800-1000bhp engine,rear wheel drive and 0-60 in under 3secs,currently in production but only enough sold so its allowed to race

PICS Stunning,kinds looks like the viper,I cant choose between the two for looks

And the cadillac sixteen,16 cylinder,13.6 litre 1000bhp monster prototype,the engine hasnt even been tuned yet,the engine auto shutsdown some cylinders depending how hard you press the accelerator,should be going into production soon,maybe
journalists have only been able to drive it at 40mph so far

PICS extreme

Since when does ultimate=fastest?

 

To some people it does, what's wrong with that?

 

Super car - not sure - not much of a muscle car fan. I do like the 1956 corvette, but that's more of a classic, I guess.

Family Car - Ford Sportrac Pickup with crewcab - very comfortable, lots luggage space, all the bells and whistles. Great on long trips ( except for the MPG !)

Classic - my personal favorite of all time: Olds Cutlass 442, 1968 model with the "Coke bottle body"; one of the first electronic ignitions , and could really move. My first car. Wish I still had it. . Bought it used for $1000 dollars in 1978 - all chrome under the hood, no body damage, nice Coca cola brown color. Big back seat. Ask my wife.

 

I never said there was...


His response to my ultimate car is posting a video of it being beaten by another (that is in an entirely different class of cars, to be honest). So can I not respond by asking how my opinion of "ultimate car" is proven false by showing me a video of it being slower? sheesh


I guess the appropriate response would be
"OMG)OMG LOOK HeRes a vid of a BugatTi VeYron it's like ZOMGZ sO mUch FASTARRRR so YouR Car's Not THE ulTimate EITHer!"

 

I love the look of the big American cars, especially the Viper but....

My supercar would have to be the Veyron, I've loved the McClaren F1 since I was little, but the Veyron! *dribble*

http://www.bugatti-cars.de/bugatti/index.html - Look at the configurator on the top left after clicking English (or your language!)

A car that needs an air brake, 0-60mph in 2.3 seconds, 250mph-0 in 10 seconds!

Once I've made my millions, this would be the weekend car!

Everyday driving would be a BMW M5 and my classic would have to be a Ford Capri Brooklands.

Thinking about it, i need to make my millions and then win the lottery two weeks in a row!!

 

Supercar...(trying to stay semi-realistic), can never go wrong with a Dodge Viper...preferably blue w/white racing stripes!!!!

Family car...Big-Chevy Tahoe, or moderate-Dodge Magnum wagon!!!!

Classic...Gotta go with the Shelby Mustang!!!!
