– Ritz

First of all, is the Ferrari content among the nominees which, in our opinion very high. Of course, the brand legendary cars built, but in an election like this will be a Ritz never win a F40. At least, that is what we think. We had rather seen that, for example, only the Ferrari F40 was included, to provide more space to other brands. In addition, the choice for the 365 GT4 BB in place of, for example, the 365 GTB/4 Daytona is a remarkable.

Furthermore, it is great that relatively small brands such as Koenigsegg and Pagani on the list also. With the opportunities that these cars on the final title you can question, but that basically applies to every car above is included.

Quiet, beautiful view from the comfort of your chair toilet seat in the gallery, you can vote here.

Let you, unless you are on ‘m agree, but that bit in the comments know why the wonderful McLaren F1, according to you should win?
