Since I noticed a lot of non-car related topics being posted lately, I thought it was time to get some opinions about the carbrands top cars. So I've put a list together with all the top-of-the-list-cars (most expensive/biggest engine, just the top model) of each brand, only the ones that are available right now, straight from the factory (so no second hand models).
You decide!
*edit: The Aston Martin Vanquish should be the Vanquish S, the SLR should be the SLR 722 Edition and the Zonda F should be the Zonda F Club Sport of course :oops:

Yeah and the top model of the Vanquish is the S, but I forgot :oops: Changed the pictures though!

I would choose the pagani zonda f, extremely rare, fast. Astonishing good looks and sound. There are some amazing cars there but the Zonda out shines them in my mind.

My brain tells me to choose the SLR but my heart tells me to choose the Zonda F. I know the Merc would be the ideal daily driver supercar but I just can't help myself. The Zonda is sex on wheels and at least I get an engine from zee germans.
Edit: I don't consider the XKR to be a supercar in this cathegory..

I was asked the very same question at the Geneva show, by the Tramontana crew. They asked what was the hottest supercar of the show... so I answered the Pagani Zonda F Roadster, with full-carbon-fibre body, yellow interior, gunmetal grey wheels and the titanium sport exhaust. To the question 'what's the car you'd take if you had 3 milions to spend' - I asked the Veyron :wink:
BTW - why there's no option for the Bug?
Because I'm stupid :oops: Guess I pulled this poll out a bit too fast, sorry guys!

Zonda F for sure, no doubt at all :twisted:

Carrera GT, you'd spend the least time in the hospital/workshop
TopGearNL
03-21-2007, 01:41 PM
^^ Incorrect, that would be the SLR since it will keep running forever :D
Listening to my heart and common sense would mean I would buy the SLR but on the way I would stop at the Zonda dealer and buy a Zonda F.. There's just something about that car! Especially like Dani said in Carbon fibre, yellow interior etc etc :twisted:

I'd have to go with the Zonda F. Its a really hard choice to make, and as much as I love the Enzo, and the CGT, I would do like TGNL and on my way to buy one of them stop by Pagani and get the Zonda F.
Don't have anywhere near that kinda money though, so luckly I dont have to make that decision and I can have them ALL in a game :D

Bugatti Veyron. Just so I could beat all the traffic on my way to work, all year round ;)
Although, If I could buy a Veryon I don't I'd have a job to commute too 0X

zonda F for sure. its crazy, its sexy, its fast. not to mention super rare

i'll have a black CGT, please :)

Enzo probably is the best of them all...
Zonda touches me deep in my sould.
And I love the SLR for the practicality and easy going driving.

The Carrera GT and Enzo are no longer in production - so they really can't be valid selections per "only the ones that are available right now, straight from the factory (so no second hand models)."
Sad, because of the list posted above, the C GT would be my pick.
Given what's left behind I would pick the Zonda F.
If used cars were allowed then I would select something a lot more special to me. No prizes for guessing .;)

Of those I'd take a unpainted Zonda F, the carbon weave on Zonda's looks amazing. Really amazing car overall.
The Enzo doesn't count as sameerrao just said, but that'd be my 2nd pick of the lot, followed by the CGT in black.
Though if you'd add the Koenigsegg CCX and Veyron to the list, things might be slightly rearranged.

The carrera GT and enzo are out of production but if this is the case the zonda f should be taken off as well. As far as i know pagani only made 25 of the zonda f and are all sold?

I'd love to have the Koenigsegg, because it's different and it's famous for nearly killing M. Stig.
But I'd still take the basic Zonda F. (no CS for me). It's just the most insane car. Ever.
And since when is the XKR a super car? For Crissakes, the 335i coupe is just as fast. Is that a supercar?
No.

I would say the CGT.... a car like that will never come again .. not only does it look good its styling and build quality is supposedly the best .
Pok
p.s. very good poll man ..thanks for that.
I Chose tha carrera GT, but immediately regretted not choosing the Zonda F
But an F40 would overshadow all, for me...

no Vector W8 in the possibilities? Blasphamy!

McLaren... or a ultra-rare italian one-off. Am I right? :P
If I could pick a used car, I'd definitely take Glickenhaus' Ferrari Pininfarina 612 P4/5 :love:
what if I told you We will be having an in depth review of this car ;)
BTW, 1992 Vector W8 for me :) but why stop with one car? :P
HeilSvenska
03-21-2007, 09:17 PM
Lol. Why is the XKR there?
I'd take the Koenigsegg CCXR. 1000+hp w/ Ethanol. More slippery than the Bugatti or McLaren. And less pretentious than both.

LP640 ... that car is a BRUTEE :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
next comes Zonda F then the CGT!
you put a JAG in the list .. .WTF ? :lol: :mrgreen:
for a daily used car i would go Jag, but for my toy i would go for the Saleen S7 TT. race car for the streets yet is drivible (say Car and Driver).

If I had to choose a modern supercar, probably it would be the Enzo but if I could indeed choose I would take a Lamborghini Miura! :wink:

Well, the topic did say:
"So I've put a list together with all the top-of-the-list-cars (most expensive/biggest engine, just the top model) of each brand, only the ones that are available right now, straight from the factory (so no second hand models)."
Even though the poll itself has some out of production models (oops :P). But lets try and stay on topic I say, and only pick brand new models. For me it would have to be a Zonda F. 8)

03-22-2007, 11:47 AM
First choice is still the McClaren F1 (not the current Mercedes McClaren) but since we are choosing cars that are currently in produciton, any Aston Martin!
Feff
For me a black Murci LP640.... (este carro é demais!!!)... 8)...
Just canīt understand what ppl see in the zonda :? ... Men the car is ugly as hell...
Stoopie
03-22-2007, 04:50 PM
I put the Jaguar XKR in the list since I think that Jaguar is also one of the more exclusive brands, maybe not as exclusive as the rest but still, and the XKR is their top model :)

03-22-2007, 05:08 PM
^^ But its not a supercar..
So wheres the Ascari or the Wiesmann, they are exclusive brands :wink:

Enzo for me, CGT never looked beautiful to me and Zonda is the car I dont have high emotions for too :bah:

03-23-2007, 09:45 AM
Zonda is kinda cool, but the drivers position looks a bit too far to the front of the car if you ask me.. Lamborghini for me :)

03-23-2007, 07:46 PM
Zonda F please.

The McLaren F1 was not in the list so it must be the Enzo.

The McLaren F1 is the car on top of my long list of loves. Too bad its not on this list. I guess id take the Saleen
Saleen S7 TT for the win! You can get all sorts of options on them if you go and talk to the engineers. The 1000 hp option is there and a derestricted S7R would be a ton of fun on a track. If you really wanted it, they could give you an S7 in bare carbon fibre (if you're into that sort of thing.) Lastly, there are fewer S7's than enzos. That's due in part because fewer were made and also, S7 owners don't go around splitting their cars in two.

Pagani zonda f the current most hardcore supercar of the bunch 21 century version of the mclaren f1.
Italian styling german engine can't beat that.
But for me the mclaren f1 still number one.

If the Koenigsegg CCX was one of the choices i would have picked it but for now i picked zee Zonda F

03-29-2007, 12:09 PM
Well my #1 choice would have to my the Pagani Zonda F.........but just because I actually like the MC12 much more than the enzo, and nobody seemed to pick it. Im voting against the odds!!!
Yay MC12. Dont worry Zonda, you are still my secret lover..
silentm
03-29-2007, 01:09 PM
i chose the MC12. it just has something special about it's shape that the others on the list don't. imo the Enzo is a bit lame i just don't excited enough by it when i see pictures of it. the MC12 is something different though :)
my second choice would the the Porsche Carerra GT and then the Macca F1 ;)

Veyrons which have been ordered have been slowed slightly, as there was an issue with air bag deployment (i'm not sure if this affected anything but US deliveries) Deliveries are about 5 months behind schedule here, but are still coming.
Zonda F all the way, no doubt..

^^Says somebody with an Enzo sig :mrgreen:
if i could afford the zonda i would have me an Enzo as well.. :mrgreen:
but yeah.. free.. i'd take the zonda over any car.. (other then the veyron)
^^Says somebody with and Enzo sig :mrgreen:
I was just thinking that! :lol: :lol:

The Zonda would be my supercar of choice. It is so impractical that it is cool. It is built purely to be a supercar. It just has a cool vibe. Desirability to the max!
