Stacked field with incredible cars from the FiST to the Turbo 911. But who will come out on top?

I'll comment the list 1-10 as to not spoil it if anyone is going to watch (or listen) the whole hour video like I did.

But why the hell is there is a NA is this final driving shot?!

Now please proceed to the comment section where there will be butthurt.

1. Camaro Z/28

2. Alfa 4C

3. 911 Turbo S

4. GTR Nismo

5. M4

6. Fiesta ST

7. WRX STI

8. BMW i8

9. F-type Coupe R

10. Mk. 7 GTI

I wanted the 4C to win, but I'll settle for 2nd. Either way though …..

I'm glad the cayman GTS wasn't around, kept me guessing who would win.

I thought the Camaro would come out top and I was right!

I'm surprised the F-Type got so low though. Maybe lack of manuél. To me, its exhaust note is so sinfully delicious.

I'm kind of over Porsche always winning. Why I was rooting against the 911 Turbo.

Yea, I'm surprised the i8 placed above the F-type. Did not see that coming.

I like that the GTI is on the bottom. I'm miffed the Jag was beat by....everything else.

Really? Not that the Z28 isn't a great car. I just wouldn't of ever thought that Camaro and "Best Driver's Car" would go together.

FieSTa midpack? Against that competition I think I'll take it.

I'd still buy the F-Type.

Of every single aspect about the Z/28 I had more faith in one thing than anything else: STIELOW. If you're a Chevy guy and you saw his name attached to this you just knew it would be awesome. Another way to look at it is the chief engineer for the program is a suspension engineer and they're using some crazy one off dampers.

So am I, which is why I'm glad neither the GTS or GT3 is present. I am looking forward to EVO magazine's car of the year video though, last years video was gorgeous.

But bro, only the 9th best drivers car. Pretty terrible.

I'm glad the Camaro actually won!

I figured it should , and I thought it might, but I assumed they'd come up with some reason for it to not win. I'm surprised the FiST didn't do better.

BRO, I know, but thats the car (well.. and the Z/28) are the only cars that when I would park, turn around and admire the hell out of it before going wherever it is I'd be going. The 8C too but.. I can't resist an 8.. bro

*edit - BRO.

Look at the cars above the FiST though, thats some hard competition.

I has no idea what/who that is. Going to assume he made it handle great.

Red Devil Camaro and Malitude. These are his cars that he built. Among many others.

Thanks for posting! Just watch the whole thing and definitely recommend watching it. It's making me want to spend the money burning in my pocket.

Serious question: why wasn't the C7 part of this?!

I just now realized that it wasn't. What the actual fuck.

It could have won. They better include it next time.

Beginning of the video they mentioned how the Z06 wasn't available yet. So next year will be Z06 vs GT3 for the top spot.

I don't hide my bias. I think my avatar speaks plainly.

Haha, which one are you eyeing? Personally I'm leaning towards Jaguar F-Type R. I love that extra grunt and oversteer it has...It's so tempting

Jayhawk Jake > Milky 09/25/2014 at 16:35

But why not the normal C7?

I feel like you and I called it pretty accurately yesterday - FiST is midpack above the GTI, WRX, and F-type and the Z/28 won.

You jealous you ain't living the Fiesta ST life?

last year they compared it to the 911 S that won and they still preferred the 911 so they saw no reason to bring it out but they did want to do the Z06.

Jayhawk Jake > themanwithsauce - has as many vehicles as job titles 09/25/2014 at 16:45

Yeah, we were spot on. I was actually expecting the FiST to at least unseat one of the powerhouses but it at least beat the cars I expected it to.

Great car (clearly) & I won't talk shit.

But half as much $ + RWD drift action = happy Milky.

The 4C …. I'd love to get one CPO in a few years. But really any car from this comparison is great.

I think they rated it lower so fanboys wouldn't cry out that some of the writers and editors at MT own them.

The 4C is high up on my list too! I've heard the cockpit is a bit cramped which sucks for tall guys like me haha.

Alpha probably won't even have presence in the US in a few years to CPO anything.

Honestly I know Red Devil is the one he's most famous for but I only have eyes for Malitude.

ALFA... there! I hope I'm wrong, but I predict Fiat, and Alfa will both demise, (followed by Mitsubishi).

I'm too old for parties!
