The 8 series is worthy, but who’s going to put up the M1?
Speaking of which we are missing quite a few notable GTs here. Aston? Ford?
old submissions
Submission 1 - Kia Stinger GT
Submission 2 - Audi S5 Sportback
I’ve changed my ideas.
Submission 1 - Nissan Stagea 260RS Autech
Submission 2 - Audi RS2
Lets go with some lesser known but still very cool Japanese cars.
Nissan Bluebird SSS-R
Nissan March Super Turbo
Ooh, I like, I like. Between the Charade and this, the JDM smol turbo krew is well represented. I’m really curious to see which one can go the furthest here!
March Super Turbo. Because at least you will have fun until you’re dead after crashing into a mailbox.
Hey, at least you could pass away with the smile of someone who knew he was driving a car with (sort of) ties to Super Silhouette racing.
Wait, I might be swaying votes towards the March by mentioning Kondo’s ride. I don’t want to force the Charade into a biased loss…!
Well submission #1 for me should be obvious
Mercedes Benz 190E 2.3-16
I’ll also throw in it’s very worthy competitor
BMW E30 M3
So many cars still missing… How can I pick just two?
Submission 1: The Mormon Meteor III
This started life as a Duesenberg. Jay Leno’s Garage and MyClassicCarTV have done features on this car that are available on Youtube if anyone’s curious. 750 hp Aero engine. This car set speed records that still stand today. Rawr!
Submission 2: A/C / Shelby 289 Cobra
While the 427 S/C was teenage spank bank fodder, the adult me prefers the more elegant 289. The 289 cars had more success at the race track, too.
That’s #FarmTruck from Street Outlaws minus the camper shell, of course.

That Lister/Ford would be the most gut-wrenching vote for me; the Lister is literally a car that was born at the same time as me, but the SHO is such a wonderful sleeper…
I say “would be”, if it weren’t for that Carlton/Charade vote! Of course I can’t vote for my own entry either way… But still, the Carlton? The Testarossa-killing, rozzers-triggering Carlton!?
Poor Daihatsu, you are a David amongst Goliaths. But not even your tiny slingshot can fell this Goliath…
50:50 pantera vs elise xD
(I am waiting for odyssey part)
You had to put the 9-5 SportCombi up against the AZ-1?
Such is the luck of the draw. The brackets were determined at complete random.
