If I had to choose between the R8 V10 and an S65 AMG Coupe, I'd have the R8 and save 73K

I had no idea the S65 AMG Coupe was that expensive.

I forget about Mercedes every once and a while.

Same.

I’m mildly entertained by the GT-R and the Titan. Besides that? Nope.

All of their cars look so generic and gaudy. Like chrome door handles and a stupid built in wing on a Versa? I think not.

I wouldn’t take the S65 over anything. It’s beautiful but gosh it’s enormous.

I adore the S65 AMG. But for that money I’d probably get a Continental GT Speed.

The GT-R just isn’t interesting like its predecessors.

I was SO onboard for a Nissan IDx.

I’d choose the S63 over either of those. That old fucking V12 is an abomination in this day and age.

Tis true. The new GTR (Well not that new anymore hah) kinda tickles my fancy, but not quite like the GTRs of the past.

An IDx would be cool, but I highly doubt it would ever happen. Nissan doesn’t really seem to care about enthusiasts much. They’re too busy redesigned cars that are already dated before they even leave the dealership.

Oh they already killed the IDx. It’s super dead. Though at one point they were actually considering it for production.

I used to be a huge Nissan fanboy, but they’re dead to me now.

I just looked at their website. If I just had landed on planet earth with knowledge of cars, but no knowledge of what year they were made, I’d guess that would be their 2008 lineup.

Yep, they’re all horrendous FWD blobs, powered by the same outdated engine and CVT.

CVTs must die.

My friend has a new Pathfinder. It’s horrendous in every way possible.

S63. But with a tune, for around 700hp and 800 torque.

Well not just more expensive, all bloat and a “on papers stats” car.
