Hey Guys, just wondering what ur ultimate car would be, not 1 car in particular, but merging a group of cars into 1,
in terms of performance, styling, interior, handling, driveability, engine sound etc etc

cheers
Andy J

911 GT3

For my criteria there is no better car, I am certain of that.

....in speed yellow.

I think the GT3 ggod choice,

perhaps if we could combine an element of the Scoob "not obvious" appeal to it...know what I mean, the Porga is a bit in your face...nothing better than somebody thinking you are in a jap family wagon and having a go only to be shown the back view of your car as you leave them behind!!!

agree with indy hundle, the new porche GT. awesome motor, but with the sound of a ferrari

been in a gt3 a few times (friend had one) they are an amazing machine. do things that you would think not possible...

I went out for a ride in one of these the other day, the bloke was still running it in and couldn't go above 4k rpm but it was incredibly quick.
Not so sure on the every day practicalities, but a truly awesome weekend car.

Dunno, I'd have to drive :
Lambo Gallardo&Murciwhatchamacallit
Rari 360 the new race-spec thingy & Spyder
Porker GT2&3&TT&GT
Aston Vanquish

Then I'd be in a position to judge.

Reading question properly now..
I want switchable AWD/RWD with a V10 engine, rallycar style sequential transmission, no roof...in a Lambo Gallardo body.

The 911 turbo(AWD) and gt2 (460 bhpRWD) are "faster" than a gt3.

But I feel they are fast road cars, the gt3 is a race car for the road.

If you just want faster get a drag car.

ID - tired and annoyed
