Same goes for the Cayenne, tbh.
The same few M5/M6s keep on popping up here, too.

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...

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 and those who dont know cars well would think that Nissan GT-R is only a Nissan not Ferrari,etc etc...So it doesnt belong here as well?
Furthermore, this thread is about spotting supercars and exotics mainly in malaysia GT-Rs are so common in Japan, Cadillac are common in States, Lambos and Ferraris are common even in places like Dubai, so they dont belong to here as well? M5 is not that common in Malaysia. If you want common, look at those previous post, same Lambos keep popping up in the thread, so it doesnt belong to here cause it keeps popping up?
No offence, just my personal opinion

This is what I mean

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

*Why dont we let Antype or UE7 to clarify everything?*

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...

Okay, if its that how you define supercar,then what about Exotics? Those cars are considered Exotic in malaysia, which is why it is posted here. Like I said in my previous post, Ferraris and Lambos can be seen easily in other countries, so it doesnt belong to here as well for being common? No right? This thread is mainly for what supercars and exotics you can find in Malaysia.
