I voted F1. It may not be the best performer or most exotic looking, but it's the one that I'd want in my garage, old or not. I've only seen one, and am still amazed by the size.

If I had to pick an order:
1- F1
2- Zonda F
3- Enzo
4- CGT
5- Veyron
6- Koenigsegg

I voted Veyron. I really admire the engineering involved to make such a car not just be fast but easy to drive as well. I'm kind of disappointed though I would've liked to seen the Reventon thrown in the mix.

hahahaha

naw

Read a fair bit of the article.. nothing new really stated.. more like somebody who read 6 articles, and made that one lol.

I picked the Veyron... but maybe I should've chosen the Enzo... the Enzo is the most exotic style to it, maddest noise.... but there is something to be said of being able to drive that kind of car any and all the time...

macca F1 fanboys will all choose it's ugly arse I can't do anything about it hehe

I had to vote CGT - in the right hands, its the most capable car of all the whole bunch....

You cant say this does not perfectly illustrate how the CGT is one of, if not the greatest sports cars of all time

http://www.motorworld.net/videovault...ls.php?id=1615

BTW - that car was driven to and from the race track - 130 mile roundtrip every couple of weeks for almost a year

Unlike other Ferraris, Enzo seems to deliver everything I want to see in a Ferrari.

CGT comes close second.

and then the rest...

Maca F1
Zonda
Veyron
CCX

wish they had a video on it

For me:
Zonda F
Enzo
F-1
Veyron
Carrera GT
CCX

just based on looks, because aren't supercars first and foremost, just a tiny bit more than the engineering stuff, supposed to look like nothing else, so much that anyone, from kids to even senile old people could tell it's something special? and anyway the Zonda F sounds like a formula 1 car, (sucks it has the least votes)

Voted for the Veyron because it has pushed the envelope even further...

I'm surprised a lot of people are voting the Veyron... I just don't like the car really. It looks massive and ugly, for me at least. I prefer Ferraris generally but my favorite would have to be the Carrera GT. But the Enzo and Zonda F are truly very desirable as well
