World's Best Car

[S204STi]

Easy.  911.

Yes.

[sportyaccordy]

E39 BMW M5.... pretty much has enough of anything anyone who likes cars would want

V8 rumble? Check.
World class handling? Check
Sumptuous interior with room for 4? Check
Classic good looks? Check

Raza's logic is pretty hard to beat though.

[MrH]

Hard to argue with Raza.

But a close second would be an E90 M3.  It's practical, relatively spacious, ridiculous performance, and tons of awesome technology.

There's something to be said for accomplishing the same goals more simply

[CJ]

Mercedes S-Class.  Why?  If you want to see the future of the automobile, just look at the S-Class.  Yes, I got this from an E-Class commercial, but the point still stands.  The S-Class has always been a pioneer in automotive technology. 

[the Teuton]

If you're coming here from outer space, chances are most technology outside of your own will pretty much suck. Think of an alien spacecraft as an iDrive that actually works. I know, it's scary.

All we have to compete is with our quirkiness (British sports cars), ass-backwards cars (Porsche), and with unparalleled innovation that no one else would ever think of (the glorious Lumina, of course).

[Laconian]

That's a given.  In fact, it's that marvel of human ingenuity, that fantastic piece of packaging efficiency, that is the reason why it is the best car.  It would no doubt impress even the most advanced of alien races and I'm sure they'd immediately seek ways to implement it on their spacecraft.

I think they would flee in terror, having witnessed such a prime example of our superior intellect.

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

I'll go with the Vette: iconic, affordable, attainable, powerful, agile, winning, sexy, and, most importantly....American.

Agreed!

[Onslaught]

The Aztec.

The only way you could find someone who didn't throw up looking at it would be if their from space.

[ChrisV]

I'd choose something that could cover the most terrestrial territory (and not necessarily roads) comfortably and efficiently.

[SVT666]

I was thinking the same thing.  I would pick the SVT Raptor in that case.

I was thinking Range Rover/Land Cruiser/Gelandewagen (or maybe a GL320 CDI)

Though none of those can do what the Raptor can do.

[Submariner]

Cover said territory looking like an 8 year old high on sugar went a little too overboard in "TONKA'S BIG RIG COLORING BOOK"?

It's got ugly all to itself.

[2o6]

I thought that the Raptor didn't have low range!?

[ChrisV]

I thought that the Raptor didn't have low range!?

Doesn't need one, as it's high range cruises over the rough stuff at high speed.

[SVT666]

I thought that the Raptor didn't have low range!?

Where have you been?  It's got low range, hill decent in both forward and reverse, locking differential that is good up to 100 mph, etc.

Range Rover Sport?

[Payman]

The Deathmobile. They won't want to fuck with us.

[Submariner]

High speed cornering with locked diff's is all the rage nowadays. 

[Raza]

That was brilliant.

Thanks. 

[Eye of the Tiger]

Thanks. 

I was not very impressed.

[Raza]

I was not very impressed.

[Northlands]

Ok, Raza's was good too.

[cawimmer430]

Easy. The car that won the "Best Saloon Car of the 20th Century" award: 1976-1985 Mercedes W123

-Reliable
-Build Quality
-Comfortable
-Spacious
-Various engine options to suit a huge range of buyers
-Timeless design

You name it.

Debate over.  Ford Model T.  Hands down

The car that put the world on wheels.

Could go anywhere anyone needed to go in a car at a time when most roads were little more than dirt paths.

Could carry a tremendous amount of cargo for it's size and weight.

Could be repaired by a semi-skilled workers.

Harder to kill than a cockroach.

Sociologically had a greater impact on the United states (and probably the rest of the world) than any other consumer product of the 20th century.

What a horrible car.
