I don't know if I should've put the Mercedes in or not because of its extreme exclusitivity and extremely high price, but I put it in anyway.

why no Koenigsegg, Carrera GT, or Maser MC12...those are all topless supercars too
i would probably choose the Porsche over any of these

anyways...

well the Lambo looks the best...and being AWD i suppose one could argue that its practical...

in terms of performance and exclusivity the CLK-GTR would be the clear choice

the Pagani is a great car, but i just dont get its styling

so i vote for the Murci

The Pagani for sure, it's performance is comperable to the CLK GTR and at 44% of the price.

Normally I wouldn't pick a Mercedes. But I don't really like Lamborghinis, and the Pagani's a little too quirky for me. Besides, how can you beat a race car for the street?

The Zonda of course.
I hate the clk-gtr without the roof
But if they all had a roof it would be hard too choose between the Zonda and clk-gtr.

You couldn't drive a CLK GTR in here without the front spoiler touching the road all the time, so I chose Zonda.

Germany -> West Germany -> NRW -> OWL -> GT
Merc: much too expensive and ugly
Lambo: not my taste
Pagani: definitive my choice
