So as some of you may have noticed, I have an occasional polling series called !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . I'll ask oppo, more for my own curiosity, out of two sought after cars, which would they rather have? I need help thinking of cars to compare to keep the series going. So if you have two cars that you'd struggle to choose between, suggest them to me and I'll see about making a post. There are also some cars to which I can't think of a good rival:

Mclaren F1

lancer Evo (something more interesting than an STI)

Ferrari f40/50

Ford svt Raptor

old svt cobras

Mazda cosmo

r32/33 GTRs

alfa GTV6

300sl

have a diablo for your troubles

great suggestions! Although I try not to compare two cars from the same brand so I may have to think of a different cars to compare those two alfas against. Also would someone really choose a xj220 over an f40? I just thought of comparing a xj220 against a 959 which would be perfect. Thanks Silvestro

I just suggested the Alfas because in my dream garage, I'd have to decide between one or the other, and it's impossible.

Okay......how about SLS vs R8 V10

E30 vs Miata

CTS V Wagon vs E63 Wagon

How about some cars modified by reputable tuners like Brabus?

already did r8 and ferrari scud, ctsv vs RS avant. Yeah tuners would be cool. Henessey vs Brabus' best would be cool. Maybe instead of e30, e36 m3 vs mazdaspeed mx5, that's be more interesting. Thanks for the suggestions man

E36 M3 vs Mazdaspeed mx5 is a fantastic idea! I am actually thinking about picking up one of those.

C5 Z06 vs NSX (fixed roof, manual only). Seriously, tough choice. NSX is more $ but that only makes the choice more difficult, because the C5 Z is huge bang for the buck.

To be honest I don't think the c5 z06 stands a chance against the nsx. I already put it up against the esprit v8 and like 70% of oppo voted for the nsx despite the fact the esprit is way faster. Here's the link

Yeah, but that's an Esprit! I'd take a C5 Z over an Esprit (even the V8) every day. I've driven an Esprit and although beautiful on the outside they are quite the POS and a real maintenance whore - the opposite of NSX or C5 Z.

The fixed roof original pop-up headlight NSX is a track-focused two seater, as is the C5 Z. A really good, clean and original C5 Z (02-04) is $25k or so. A good version 1 NSX is $35k or so, although harder to find. I've been pondering this question for some time, and I used to own a C5 Z. For even money I'd go NSX just because of the rarity and quasi-exotic character, but it's a close call even then. The C5 Z is off the charts performance bargain. Call it the pop-up headlight edition, ha! I bet the Z06 wins...
