great shot antype but are these even supercars.... They're definitely rare, probably on a borderline of exotic here in Malaysia but I feel if these are here, the classic caddilacs u posted in the random cars thread deserve to be here more.... But really nice catch, although it's a bunch of cars from companies in deep shit.... haha..

But the Cadillac 300C and Cadillac CTS-V are exotics in Malaysia. You can't find them anywhere else on this peninsular I guess.

Correction, CHRYSLER 300C and Caddy XLR-V... IMO, the only American ride that deserves to be here is the Ford GT...

FTI, M5 does not equal to 5 series.

The M5, along with the other M3, M6 should be here, as the are performance oriented.

Well according to your theory, Satria Neo CPS or Satria GTi also would deserve a spot here right? High performance cars/sports cars and supercars are really quite different dude.... M-series cars are great but as mentioned, they're just mass-produced sportscars... Apart from the M1, BMW have never really attempted making a supercar but i would say that a Z8 could qualify to be here as it's rather exotic...

i am no agree with tis..does u guys seen the M5 n M6 often on the road??it is an exotic..In u guys mind,supercars and exotics only belong to lamborghini and ferrari those category??

they are not very common yes and they are by all means great performance cars no doubt about that but to qualify to be a supercar or exotic requires the car to cross a certain boundary... zondas, enzos, veyrons... they are all built from the ground up to be speed monsters with mind blowing dimensions that makes even the dumbest of people regarding cars go WOW. M-series cars are all based on the platforms of their existing vehicles and are basically mass produced sports cars and those who do not know much about cars are likely unable to differentiate them from the non-M counterparts... i'm not saying they're not great showcases of automotive engineering, i'm a fan of BMW myself but they're simply not supercar material...

The problem here, and it is a recurring issue, is that everyone's idea of what constitutes a supercar is relative. For someone who is familiar with the rarefied stratosphere of true supercars, sportcars hold no distinction. For those who are exposed to more ordinary vehicles, a sportscar would appear to be an exotic. For those who think Tokyo Drift is a far better movie than the Godfather, a tuned monster would take the cake. Perceptions don't change easily, so we're probably going to have the 'it doesn't belong here' thing keep coming up.
Spot on, unless carmakers unite with Oxford to pen a proper definition for the word supercar, ranking one will remain very subjective...

wow this is a rare 1 from u antype... normally ur shots are of parked vehicles or taken from a proper vantage point right? this seems like those 'in-car' snaps and what a nice one it is indeed....

If you say so, what about GT-R then? It is mass-produced, the price drops as well causing many people able to own it.We can also see it quite often. So it doesnt belong here as well?

well for me, it's just one brilliant performance car that can readily challenge any supercar out there and beat many of them but that's where it ends for me, just one great motoring creation. it doesn't have any extras or additional wow-factor materials that bring it into the supercar league as i said before when someone started a thread asking if the GTR should be considered a supercar. they don't have that extra crazy bit in the car that just blows it way away from what a car is... for example

-Bugatti Veyron has a whopping 10 radiators to cool its massive W16 engine...
-All Lambos have almost completely ditched the purpose of having windows and rear windscreens in the name of Italian flair...
-Who in the world needs 4 huge exhaust pipes sticking out the middle of his butt? Pagani thought otherwise...
-The sick vertically opening doors and roof which fits perfectly into its front boot make the Koenigsegg something special apart from its speed...
-Spotting a Ferrari or a Porsche definitely induces a bigger "WOW!" than seeing most proven Japanese sports cars and what is the reason???

These are only a few examples which set the GTR apart from the really really big boys... It can match many of them on the track, yes.. It's just that extra bit of craziness that make those cars really super that the GTR doesn't but then again, it might not have been the sports car it is today should Nissan try to make it abit bonkers... Great car nonetheless...

when i said rare i was referring to the manner of the shot which is a little different from his usual type of shots, not the car... Haha.. but yea, the superleggera is quite a sweet catch...

by the way, according to Lambo's LP terms, shouldnt ur SLK be LP 85-2? Hahaha..

I would actually say that this car is more exotic than a number of cars posted here like some Chryslers or Caddys for example. Open your eyes people, it's not just a normal Touareg, it's a V10 tuned by WALD.... the ones u see on the road, and it's not like there are many of them, they're mostly V6s and maybe some V8s... this is definitely more exquisite than a Chrysler 300C or a Ford Mustang....

this is what real exotic should look like. something that not many people willing 2 buy one no matter how rich they r. together with enzo n reventon (in my opinon look better than super veloce) is what real exotic ferrari n lambo should look like. laugh.gif rclxms.gif

unless its a 722, which it's not, the slr is no more exotic than an f430 or a gallardo....
