Yeh the Ferrari is the loudest and fastest etc etc, but it is far from the best Ferrari, and not the best in this group either. Its got to be the Sl55 AMG, it can keep up with the porsche and ferrari, and its a comfortable grand tourer, which looks just as good with the top up!! And its got enough "real-world" torque to use it everyday!

depends what you mean by "keep up". We have an SL55 and a GT2 and have tracked both. On the track the GT2 is worlds faster. The SL55 weighs as much as a fullsize truck. Another problem is that because of the weight, the car can't use any good track tires. On the street the SL55 can only beat a stock GT2 above 120mph and with our extra horsepower in the GT2 (600) the Benz can't ever come close.

Sorry but all of the cars mentioned are in completly different classes...
360CS- Is a track special Road/Race car.
Galardo- Is a sports car.
911 GT2- Well a sports car also, but much faster.
Sl 55- Is a big grand tourer.
but I would take 360CS.

Yeah, I think Ferrari is over rated as well. I would go Gallardo and SL55. The SL for daily use and the Gallardo for the weekends. . .

I like the 360, oh that sound and of course cause it is a Ferrari
911, what a platform, the car just flat performs, GT2 is my favorite 911
SL55, love the car, love that NASCAR sounding V8
BUUUUT, make mine a Gallardo. I just flat our love Lamborghini's much like you Ferrari guys love Ferrari.

Well than your GT2 isnt stock evidently. Let me get a SL 55K (Kleeman) pushing out +600bhp and it will be a helluva alot closer. For comparison a modified 911 Ruf Turbo is pushing 550bhp at 5800rpms....so you have done alot of work to your GT2. Lets also not forget that a stock SL 55 AMG runs the same numbers as a 575 Maranello......
