Your favourite Sports car

[FarmerPug]

If you could buy any sports car what would you buy, or what one makes you go wow when you see one. Today i seen a porsche 911 and i have to say i have seem more exciting looking focuses than it. So probably a green lambo would be my choice.

think you all know mine allready
without a shadow of a doubt

2011 Ford Focus RS (In Green)

[FarmerPug]

A good choice but im on about more than a hot hatch, your favourite hypercar, up in the leagues of ferrari, lamborghini, konizeg (i cant spell it) or pagani. etc.

mine has to be an Aston martin DB9, the sound off them is awesome

What is it with snot coloured cars? And when was a Ford Focus ever a sports car?

Any sports car, unlimited budget? Lord knows these days, I kind of caught some reality a few years back and stopped looking at things I couldn't ever afford. In my younger days I was eyeing up things like the DeTomaso Pantera so probably one of them. Italian supercar looks & performance without the dreadful maintenance issues.

Seeing as how we're in the realms of fantasy here, why can't I have one of these:

[Gary406]

is that wind up starter ?

what sort is that ?

Gary, that's an original Bentley Blower, I think - the thing on the front is a supercharger

My choices:

Aston Martin DB9 (the noise of the V8 is the key here, every bit as much as the performance and the looks):


Ferrari 458 Italia (this is the most beautiful thing to come forth from the Ferrari/Pininfarina designers for some time):


Although I'd probably also do something nutty if I got all 6 numbers one Saturday, buy a V6 Coupe and take it to a proper tuning house, and spend a fair amount of money turning it into a total monster (twin turbos or superchargers, etc).

[Gary406]

ok now you showed me them pics ,

i think a ford focus RS is OFF the list, that db9 looks feckin good

[steve_earwig]

is that wind up starter ?

No, it's a Roots-type supercharger.

what sort is that ?

It's a blower Bentley.

[trem1]

talkin of the Aston, has anyone noticed how the new Laguna coupe looks very similar.

[DRTDVL]

your all wrong - Saleen S7 Twin Turbo

Seeing as how we're in the realms of fantasy here, why can't I have one of these:

Now that is a proper car. Best ever built for me.

[Doggy]

Lancia LC-2 for best ever engine noise.

Road-car wise, a red 246 Dino
