    Bentley Brooklands is still in production. Customers in the US are being delivered their cars as we speak. My father might nominate that car.

    A massive plurality with more than double the closest runner up. The R8 won.

    Winding Road liked the California - I'd be interested in seeing what Evo or Road and Track think of it though. Nic though, I know you think it is the best for this year, but do you think it has a fireball's chance in hell of winning? Props for the bold stance though. Ferrer is gonna choke on his lunch when he reads that you nominated it.

    Just got the new Automobile Mag and they liked it, and were positive from a design standpoint as well

    it will be the next Enzo or F70, or whatever they want to call it. V8, twin turbo, 1.150 kg and quite compact, expected in late 2009, more likely spring 2010.

    Ferrer already nominated the Brooklands and you gave him the Maser so he has two nice Ferrer cars to choose from. I wouldn't even know what to nominate for him. Probably something slow, boring, and ugly?

    Oh I kid Ferrer.

    this is not a debate, is a fact, they are switching to turbo again, and that car is going to be the first. I will ask for more news.

    Isn't a V10 the perfect compromise mathematically?

    it depends (technically) of the singular cylinder capacity. but direct injection is going to make it (almost) irrelevant. V8s usually sound better than V12 imo.
