09-18-2008, 11:33 AM
the GTR is of course the most obvious choice.... but I still believe that the BMW 135i might have a chance

The Cadillac CTS-V, the Audi A4, the Pontiac G8, and the Mazda 6 are my favorites of the lot. Pretty sure the GT-R will get it.

No poll? I liked almost all those cars. I don't like the new Fit. They could've done better on the design this go around.

I love the challenger, but I would only vote for it if it was the SRT version

My vote would have to go to the GTR for the sports car, not because its what everyone else says, but for the technical aspect. It looks damn beautiful, huge potential, and at a price better than any competition.

For the sport sedan, I would probably go with the CTS-V. Great engine power, comfortable ride. Seems like a very good car for the money
