What's your favourite car you've seen this week?

Hmm I'll wait until it's been around the Top Gear track to comment.



That sucks, I like Fiat, they make some cool little cars, the Punto Abarth is pretty cool too.

I seen 3 Fiat 500s following each other on the West Side Highway a few weeks back. It was pretty neat seeing 3 of them act the fool at once.

A tie between a 2006 GTO and a 2007 Corvette. My favorites so far this week.

Wow, where did you see those?

I do deal with people posting unrelated things in my threads a lot of the time... From people posting bikes in car threads to people posting giant dog gifs.

I doubt it could round a track, maybe in a straight line...

The Maserati Quattroporte lost to a FWD Lincoln MKS in a head to head hill climb... and a Jaguar XF... and a Mercedes E550 (not an AMG)... and a BMW 550i (not M5). The Granturismo isn't going to perform significantly better. Even with the upgraded motor, a GranTurismo would get smoked around a track by a 5.0 Mustang GT. A few months ago, I saw a black Quattroporte with red leather. Stunning looking car in person. One of the best looking cars I've ever seen, but the standard Maserati range is not designed to be a weekend track car.

As far as the best looking car recenty. I saw an Aston Martin convertible last week. Didn't get a close enough look to see what it was exactly, and I'm not a fan of the convertible, but still a gorgeous car.

Well that sucks, if you're driving an italian super car and it's slower than a mustang then you are doing something wrong.

Yes, you are. You are buying the wrong car. Maserati is not a supercar. It's a luxury GT cruiser.

Base Gran Turismo
405 HP 339lb-ft
4147lb curb weight

Not a supercar.

Mustang 5.0
412HP 390lb-ft
3620lb curb weight

The GranTurismo has not shot at all of beating the Mustang. The upgraded S model only improves to 433hp and 361lb-ft with the same weight. It's still won't compete with the Mustang.

Whatever you define the car as it's still being done wrong. It's like if a DB9 didn't have a chance against a Mustang, the car would be being made wrong. Mustang is a...

Just realised this post will cause an argument... Aborting...

RS4 Avant. Slow week.

Saw a B7 RS-4 yesterday.... One of my favorite cars ever.. So hot.

I detailed an older Audi rS4 earlier this week. Bright red - looked absolutely gorgeous after I was done with the polisher.

Nothing special, I know. I've just got a sweet spot for a nice Audi.
