675LT, 488 Spyder, GT3RS or AMG GTR?

Just curious on what car you guys like best. I know some are more track focused and some are more Touring car focused, but i'm asking for an over all best.

Cheers

488 Spyder. I'm biased though given that I'm called Pastarocket.

On a serious note, the Ferrari 488 Spyder gets the highest marks for me in terms subjective ratings for the driving experience. A folding hard top convertible with a twin turbo V8 high rev engine roaring with the top down would be an awesome drive. This is a seriously fast car.

The GT3RS would be the winner in terms of the driving experience on a race track. Does the Porsche get the best marks for appearance compared to the 488? Meh.

The GT3RS would beat the 488 Spyder in a head to head race on a track but the overall winner for me would be the 488 based on design, driving experience, and performance.

Forza Ferrari!

S2000 is obviously the best car among them all.

I was going to argue that Chevette is a front wheel drive, but I did a wikipedia search just in case, and it was indeed, rear wheel drive.

I think if you're looking for bang for buck, you can't beat Japanese cars.

Yugo may be cheap, but it was shit.

That's like saying Tata Nano has the best bang for buck just because it's cheap.

I'll be trading my 580-for the Huracan Performante which will be the best of both worlds so maybe look at that. And don't you the black SV?

675LT and GT3RS are the only two pretty much guaranteed to hold their value or even appreciate

Can't beat the AMG GTRs sound though

I would think the AMG GTR would be a sure fire bet to increase in value. After you look at what the SLS black series is going for now. But i agree on the ferrari dropping the most in value.

I sold it, it drew way to much attention and was to heavy. It didnt suit my driving style. Im really hoping the Huracan Perf is better than the 570 Super was.

Damn, that sucks. I love the SV but it is big and heavy and not as nimble as the Huracan. From the reviews it looks like the H Perf will be a game changer but we'll have to wait and see when it's released in Geneva.

675LT & ferrari 488 is so close to me for a choice,i love the way ferrari feels nimble on its feet,and I love the carbon fiber tub frame of a Mclaren,The engineering is the best for both automakers

those would be my top 2 choices without paying 1 million for the even more exotic.

That was a Black Series car though, the GTR isn't. Rumor has it there will be a AMG GT Black Series of some sort but later.

The GTR isn't a limited production car is it?
