Kind of like I was hoping the Gallardo would.

Crap! I had the Spyder version of this penciled in at my convertible. I guess I'll have to cross it off the list.

A very nice choice btw.

Nice pick with the Porsche. I never thought it looked that great, then I saw on in person in Munich. What a beauty. I have a $120 model of a yellow Carrera in my living room. Astonishing car.

[STeeLy]

I was just talking to someone else in this car draft the other day and was surprised that the Gallardo hasn't been taken yet...

[Coach]

You can't go wrong with the 911.

That is what I am loving/hating about this draft... there are so many great cars and it is hard to decide which one to choose knowing that you are going to miss out on a bunch of other ones you wanted.

Damn you all! Don't mind the 430 going as much since I already have the Enzo, but the NSX is a sweet asian car and the Carrera GT would've looked good next to the Enzo and Reventon in my garage.

Now that is just plain greedy!

[Fozzie_DeBear]

You could always propose a swap...

[the lemming]

I'm not married to the Carrera GT. If someone wants to make an offer it would be considered.

I see that we are off to a rip roaring start again today.

[STeeLy]

Team Not Rice B*tch will go with a total rice pick and import the Toyota Supra Mk. IV (1993 - 2002) into the Asian Category

[arsenal]

STeeLy looses points for using a picture of a car from The Fast and the Furious.
Especially with his team name..

[STeeLy]

And with the first pick of round 6 Not Rice B*tch will help the environment with the Mercedes Benz F-Cell Roadster in the Concept Category

LMAO... yes I know with my team name... and that car is pure rice... LOLs

Only really picked it just to use the F&F picture.

[Fozzie_DeBear]

I thought that the Estoque was a concept car? Can we put concepts into other categories?

[arsenal]

That's a good question. Because the Porsche 911 GT3 RSR is a track only car, but was picked in the exotic category. I thought exotics where street legal, but rare.

[STeeLy]

Estoque is a concept yes... but it's a concept Sedan

This is a tough one...

Do all cars OUTSIDE of concept have to be already produced and on the roads?

[3 Justin 3]

I would say the Lambo Estoque is pure Concept. It is a sedan sure, but it is still early in development, they don't know what kind of engine yet, etc.

I would say Concept as being a car either never produced, not yet produced, technical exercise. Usually the final car doesn't look like the concept. The Estoque will look close to that, but I am willing to bet the interior won't.

[the lemming]

I didn't notice the chosen 911 was a track only car but the Estoque is listed as a concept car on wiki (infact it was on my short list for concept cars).

I was working under the assumption that all cars (other then the race car, movie and concept) had to be street legal production cars. Otherwise, why bother having those three categories. I wasn't real big on those three categories to begin with as I prefer street cars.

I would say that MattyC can get away with just picking the top street version of that generation of 911, but that the Estoque can only be a concept car.

I will wait a while to make my next pick until we can get concensus on this issue.

[STeeLy]

We shall wait and see then... If Estoque is only allowed to be concept (which at this point seems quite likely), I will re-pick...
