Fantasy Poll-Which super car would you go for if you had $100K in 2008..

RuffRyder · 21st September 2008, 03:25

Hi All,

As the Thread Title says, it is a fantasy poll, which means if you were given $100K and asked to buy any of these cars..which one would you go for and why??

abhiram7912 · 21st September 2008, 04:39

i would go for the AM V8 just for its looks and its exhaust and its V8 engine

mura · 21st September 2008, 07:02

I don't think you can get the Ferrari 599 for 100k$.

For the 100k$ I would get the Aston Martin V8.

abhinav.gupta88 · 21st September 2008, 11:04

Aston Martin v8 Anyday. It's simply beautiful and amazing.

I don't know about the other cars, but you "will not" get a 2008 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano Coupe for 100k's, price will be around 250-300k.

It amazes me that there is no Nissan GTR in the list. Even more so because it out-performs every car mentioned above.(also not considering the fact that you cant get some of those vehicles for >100k *hint hint*)
Lets see,
1x Nissan GTR Premium (w or w/o markup, doesn't matter)
1x Cobb tuning box
And quite a lot of cash left over to use on fuel

Many of these cars cannot be bought for $100k
And some of these cars are not even supercars.

$100K in India will buy you a $50k car. Thats it.
The humble E class diesel 280 is $100K + OTR

sridhar24 · 21st September 2008, 19:57

For me its the Ferrari 599 GTB. Would love to have it if it was available for 100k really

Harbir · 21st September 2008, 20:27

I'd like to buy an F355. They are around $75k now.

Short of that, I'll just learn to drive my Elise better. Driver matters more than the car.

aaggoswami · 21st September 2008, 20:28

I would go for the Benz. As usual, the dose of engineering and the three pointed star are the reasons behind this.
The engine is not a screamer, but has torque, a thing that can give addictive acceleration, and is more important when accelerating hard out of corners or overtaking ( I am talking about the engine in mid range and not in the top end ).

Voted for MB.

Undoubtedly -- Ferrari

DocG · 21st September 2008, 21:06

The Masser GT any day of the week. Undoubtebly the sexiest car on the list. I've seen the 911, Aston and Masser side by side, [gotta love madison ave] and the Masser was the hottest looker of the 3 IMO

MaserQ · 21st September 2008, 22:29

Tough one. Aston Martin V8 followed by the GranTurismo. Or better still, run a poll among a random sample of the fairer sex and pick the winner. Come on, they are all great cars anyway..
