The Carrera GT and Enzo are no longer in production - so they really can't be valid selections per "only the ones that are available right now, straight from the factory (so no second hand models)."

Sad, because of the list posted above, the C GT would be my pick.

Given what's left behind I would pick the Zonda F.

If used cars were allowed then I would select something a lot more special to me. No prizes for guessing .

Of those I'd take a unpainted Zonda F, the carbon weave on Zonda's looks amazing. Really amazing car overall.

The Enzo doesn't count as sameerrao just said, but that'd be my 2nd pick of the lot, followed by the CGT in black.

Though if you'd add the Koenigsegg CCX and Veyron to the list, things might be slightly rearranged.

The carrera GT and enzo are out of production but if this is the case the zonda f should be taken off as well. As far as i know pagani only made 25 of the zonda f and are all sold?

I'd love to have the Koenigsegg, because it's different and it's famous for nearly killing M. Stig.

But I'd still take the basic Zonda F. (no CS for me). It's just the most insane car. Ever.

And since when is the XKR a super car? For Crissakes, the 335i coupe is just as fast. Is that a supercar?

No.

I would say the CGT.... a car like that will never come again .. not only does it look good its styling and build quality is supposedly the best .

Pok

p.s. very good poll man ..thanks for that.

I Chose tha carrera GT, but immediately regretted not choosing the Zonda F

But an F40 would overshadow all, for me...

McLaren... or a ultra-rare italian one-off. Am I right?

If I could pick a used car, I'd definitely take Glickenhaus' Ferrari Pininfarina 612 P4/5
what if I told you We will be having an in depth review of this car

BTW, 1992 Vector W8 for me but why stop with one car?

Lol. Why is the XKR there?

I'd take the Koenigsegg CCXR. 1000+hp w/ Ethanol. More slippery than the Bugatti or McLaren. And less pretentious than both.

If I had to choose a modern supercar, probably it would be the Enzo but if I could indeed choose I would take a Lamborghini Miura!

Well, the topic did say:

"So I've put a list together with all the top-of-the-list-cars (most expensive/biggest engine, just the top model) of each brand, only the ones that are available right now, straight from the factory (so no second hand models)."

Even though the poll itself has some out of production models (oops ). But lets try and stay on topic I say, and only pick brand new models. For me it would have to be a Zonda F. 8)

First choice is still the McClaren F1 (not the current Mercedes McClaren) but since we are choosing cars that are currently in produciton, any Aston Martin!
