So if you had a choice, which speciality group of these luxury cars would you roll with. No speculation and only seriously tuned cars, thus L-tuned and A-spec are not included.

So pick one, if you had to drive those cars and only those cars. It may not be an easy choice but none are a BAD choice

If it has 55, 65, or maybe upcoming 63, then I'm all for it.

Sigh, can I just have them all(or one from each)!!

Looks like I'm the lone Audi vote so far.

I care less about the numbers and more about everything else. I like cars that present a certain image - understated yet agressive, refined yet excessive, unnecessary yet well-executed.

Audi's RS and S cars are all of those things and, for that reason, I'm drawn to them.

They're not necessarily the fastest or best handling - but I love them.

That and they offer them in "sensible" wagon form (though not here )

Honestly I would love to see other people driving those high performance vehicles on street, but for me, Japanese cars are still my favorite. Lexus, Infiniti, Acura are the ones I would stick with.
