    Whelp, we finally had a tie: the Vette and the Tiger each garnered 5 votes with MCS02 splitting his vote! I had to make an executive decision and cast my own vote, which as it turns out, was very easy. The first car I ever drove was a Sunbeam Tiger. Once I got it rolling (stalled twice), I was encouraged to floor it (we were in a large parking lot, I was 14), which I did. Needless to say, it was a seminal experience.

    The Tiger wins.

    Today's 3rd round match-ups are:

    Cosworth Sierra vs. Aston Martin One-77
    Lancia Stratos vs. Koenigsegg Agera R
    Pantera vs. 2013 WRX STI hatchback
    Ferrari 250 GT vs. Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat

    I think we need to remember the basic groundrules:
    - The cars have no cash value. I think of it as I get the car for free and when I do not want the car any longer I must give it away for free.
    - Must be used as your daily driver.

    Can't bring myself to think of a 250 GTO as a no value car. I'm Ok with daily driving one though. :D

    I thought those were the old games rules that ended. :rolleyes:
    If those are the "true rules" of this game this whole process sucks. :mad::confused::mad5:

    Just crown a never dying Toyota Pick up or any Honda as the winner just like Top Gear did. :mad2:

    Do I have to cover the insurance as well. If so that will rule most of my picks right there. What the heck is insurance on the Koenigsegg Agera R

    No, but I have loved them ever since seeing my first one in the early '70's.

    Saw a few of them at a recent car show and they still get my socks all twisted up.....:D

    ^This^, and sorry if it sucks, Dave-O, but you're a big whiner so STFU (I say as I enjoy one of Kim's anise pizelles--for those who don't know, Dave's [waaaay] better half is an awesome cook and 1] is pretty much the only reason I'm friends with him, and 2] is the reason his MINI always leans to the driver's side).

    In the spirit of making up the rules as I go along: the insurance ruling is that you don't pay insurance on your car: it's free to get, free to run, and you give it away free.

    Today's round three match-ups include:

    Singer 911 vs. Mk. 1 GTI
    2015 Cayman GTS vs. Ferrari 288 GTO
    Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 vs. Shelby Daytona Coupe
    La Ferrari vs. 2015 Vette Stingray


    A couple of toughies, there.
