Rate the car above you

Ok, I saw this in another thread and wondered how it would do here.

First, someone posts a picutre, in this case this it's me. Then the next person has to rate it 1-10, 10 being oh so good and 1 being absolutely apalling and then justify their reason. If you see that someone is wrong with their information or their ideas on why it's good/bad, you may criticize them but you can't jack the thread.

This is for road-going production cars only, from any time, and they have to be cars people know.

For example, someone puts:

BMW M6 E63 (with a picture, not necessary though, it would be nice to have a visual aid)

9

because it's an amazing car from a driving and engineering standpoint and it's mindblowingly beautiful but every button gives you a headache and it still has the nannying iDrive.

Get it? Lets give it a try.

Bugatti Veyron

You need to post one after you rate.

PS. also try to give a more thorough but brief justification like I did with the M6.

Re: Rate the car above you

A 3. It only gets those three points because 1 is a gimmie 2 for "originality" and 3 for entertainment value. I especially like that hood plate or whatever the hell that is in the middle of the hood. Is it protecting the carb? Is it part of the carb??? The 3 hood ornaments/ hood pins are a nice touch too.
He shoulda splurged and dropped 10 more bucks to get the spinner hubcaps
Are those windshield washer nozzles up toward the front of the hood!?!?!?

MY GOD! I CAN'T STOP STARING AT THIS CRAZY LOOKIN CAR!!!

Here's the next

I'll give it a 7, good car that I wouldn't mind owning, but I wouldn't seek one out.

next- my newest fascination

Ford Focus ST

6, good gas milage okay horsepower but in the end i think its more of a grocery getter...but with the price they ask for them ithink you get what you pay for.

and my choice is going to be...
Infiniti's g35 (love this car)

I actually give this car a nice 10.

It's a very good car, in Japan it was the Skyline for a little bit, and the sound it makes is absolutely amazing (As I know it from my mom's FX35, same three and a half liter V6). It's a fantastic value as well and has great build quality. I haven't driven one but from what I've read and heard, it handles and performs really well and is just as good and slightly cheaper than the BMW 3-series.

Mercedes CLS55 AMG (the only true and modern Mercedes-Benz I love and would actually buy)

Re: Rate the car above you

8.5


Beautiful car, much better made than before, handles nicely, CLS320 CDI actually makes an extremely viable ownership proposition, Supercharged V8 the best sounding V8 on this side of a Ferrari. Loses points for no headroom in the back

Next- Alfa Romeo 159

7, all of which are forward of the windscreen. The face of a beautifully sinister freak, the engine preferred by the gods, and the badge of passion. Too bad they didn't bother with the rest of the car.

The new Ferrari 599.
