As much as I would love a 458, I couldnt afford to insure and maintain it. So of those I would probably go with a F- Type R. However If I was given my real choice in that kind of price bracket, I would buy a 911 2S.

None of the above, even if free.

Too costly for fuel, tax, maintenance and insurance.

Buy assets, not liabilities.

How boring are you

Needs money for car parts :P

No love for AWD here...

F-Type has an AWD variant.

GTR is AWD.

 

Unless you mean no-one's choosing the GTR?

I once saw a 458 doing a fly-by and i almost cried of laughing.

It sounds absolutely terrible, it barely makes a noise and the bit it makes sounds completely stupid.

 

You really get the impression the driver doesn't really care about cars and just wants a status symbol.

Because if you do care about cars, you would get something different because it just sounds wrong.

 

If you care about noise get an F-type, that thing at least sounds right.

 

PS: i would get the GTR, i love imports :D I have 2 goals in life and 1 of them is a nissan stagea rs260, same engine and similar chassis as the skyline r34 GT-R, and if my life continues as it is now, i will get one in a few years, hopefully.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Well i'm not going to deny that, but i'm just comparing the cars when they are stock.

Every car can sound good with a proper exhaust :D

Even a saab 900 turbo can sound like an epic rally car

 

@2:20 there are some nice noises :P
