I've gotta go with, on this poll, the Holden HSV cars. Sedan or wagon versions, it doesn't matter.



Like a fine Detroit wine, this vehicle has aged to budgetary perfection...

Where are the SRT8 LX cars?

Though my vote would go to the G8 GXP.

As for 5 door hatched vs wagons, you posted a sedan delivery, based on a custom chopped top body that was never made by the factory.


I know what I posted. The point was, did he?
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

This poll is stupid.

You exempt common, great cars, but include the crazy weird shit you like that you isn't even available.

I'm with Soup.  This poll doesn't make any sense.


Since when is a Jetta GLI "weird" or a G8 GXP "Crazy"?


You're being stupid.

It doesn't fit into the poll, because it doesn't have four doors. Nor is it Factory (or another company like Tickford, Lotus, Prodrive) modified.

There is no place in the world where one can choose between a Lotus Carlton an MG 260, or an Accord Euro-R without illegally grey market importing one of those vehicles; but I can commision a Lincoln Zephyr Sedan delivery like the one I posted to my own specs.

No, I'm not. You've created a poll where somehow in your mind it makes sense to pit the merits of a Mazdaspeed 6 against a Falcon XR8 againsta Mugen Honda and against a 300C, but have tried to eliminated the cars that any of them would really be cross-shopped against.

It's a fantasy poll. No one is actually cross shopping any of these cars here. It's a simple game where you satisfy the requirements. No realism involved.

I wasn't referring to those.  If you thought I legitimately was, you're so far out of touch with reality there isn't even a point in arguing with you.

Except we're inordinately hung up on whether or not any of them have a window aft of the c-pillar.

Which of course, brings me to one of my favorite sleepers, the '88 Mazda 626 GT Turbo hatchback. Which also doesn't fit in this particular poll, but was fast, fun, and had lots of potential for even more speed...


And some of the most memorable torque steer of any car I've been in. It was still fun for the time.

Ok, any nominations for Super speed sedans? Any car, just has to have four doors an be a sedan or wagon. No 5-door hatches or 2-door hatches. (Sorry GTI) Preferably, cars from "everyday" brands. (Sorry AMG and M-series, and S-line cars)


Here are My two nominations: The Lotus Carlton and the Ford TS50 (even though Lotus isn't an "everyday" brand, the Carlton started out as a Vauxhall)





How did you forget about the EVO and STI?

This would be my next car if it was available here.
