    I pick the Diablo, because its just so in your face. It was the first car to catch my attention back in the days of the original Need for Speed games. Diablo SV was my unicorn in those times. The car is the definition of exotic, power, speed, and masculinity. Its testosterone on four wheels, and because of this its one of the few cars that can never be labelled a girl's car. Also, because pressing its clutch was a workout by itself, there's hardly any room for designer shopping bags, and visibility for mall park jobs is the shits. Its the car that turns everyone's head, and if you're a hater, your head will still turn. I have yet to hear from someone that doesn't have the ability to appreciate a Lamborghini Diablo for how incredible and ridiculous it is.

    These are supposed to be well known cars, Pieter . The type that people raved about. The ones that even people who otherwise knew absolutely diddly squat about cars could say "I love the....!" Those things just can't be said for hidden gems like the SVX, regardless of how good they actually were. Perhaps I'll find a collection of "could've beens" and do up another poll .

    I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess you're a mazda fan

    If you sold the lambo, you could probably buy the entire mazda lineup and still have a small down payment on a new house.

    I picked the Viper, just because I love its no-apologies, balls-to-the-wall attitude. The 355 gave it a run for its money though, I find it to be one of the last attractive Ferraris, along with the 456.

    The Prowler's actually a cool car, but I never got over it having a V6. Even a straight six would be much more at home...

    Everyone that chose the F355 is right, everyone that chose anything else is wrong, so props to the F355 fans out there.
    i love the 355, but i would definately take a 993 over one, because in three months your 355 will be in the garage getting fixed and i'll be going to another trackday in the 993

    I chose the 993. The Viper's got better with the current set of models, not the earlier ones, and the Porsche's stole my heart when I got a ride in a 1987 Carrera.

    And because a 993 is in the garage

    I gotta say the 355 challenge whups the butts of 993s. Just cause you're a 911 fanboy doesn't change that.

    sure it can compete with a GT2. when it runs which is why it just misses out on being my choice.

    Hey, not running is part of the charm. That way you have an excuse to spend more time with it and less with your gf shopping.
