So, taking into price, looks, everything, which would you buy with your money?

I'd take the BMW. As they said, it screamed around the track and personally, I love the looks of it. Plus, I'm not gonna be driving it on sand as insanely fun as that looks.

My arguments against the Porsche are that it's the base model pretty much and if I were to get a Porsche, I'd want a real one, not the cheapest one. As for the Jag, it's OLD. I never really like the looks of it and the inside is so cramped and ugly. Maybe if they redid the entire thing I'd get it, but it's in dire need of an overhaul.
 
Hands down BMW for me. Porsche and Jag are great but I want the extra room the BMW offers.
 
It's got to be the Jag. In proper british racing green of course. It's beautiful and it goes like mad. In my eye, nearly as pretty as a DB7, but for half the price. Sure, if I had time to visit track day events and such, perhaps one of the other two, but for just getting from A to B each day... jag. I mean, limiting myself to those three...
 
911 for me. Actually, I really don't know, becuase I haven't watched the episode yet, and I don't know what model BMW or Porsche we're talking. Offhand, I chose the 911 just 'cause where I live, BMW's are more common, and you rarely see a Porsche. I like to drive something that isn't too common. But I might choose the BMW if I knew what model it was....like an M3 CSL :twisted: :twisted:
 
i wud buy a porsche any day .... :D

on a related note..... i raced a porsche on the oklahoma turnpike towards dallas...and the boxter dude...chickened out at about 90...so officially i won in a accord . :lol:
 
The BMW is probably more practical, but practicality be damnded, I want to be seen. And for the ultimate head turner, nothing beats the Porsche.

A 911 is a real Porsche. It's not like, say, the 914 (the Volkswagen of Porsches).

I know, but it's just about the cheapest one you can buy. As I said, if I ever get a Porsche, I'd want a Turbo, a truely refined Porsche, not just something made by Porsche like the one they tested.

Dude, everything made by Porsche is refined. In my opinion anything wearing the Porsche badge is amazing (even the 914)! :eek: :D
 
True, but if I'm gonna get a Porsche, I want one of the better ones!
 
I am sorry, but when did Porsche become synonymous with refinement haha? Its engines are rather loud, but in a good way :mrgreen: .
 
Given the choice between these 3 cars I would never ever buy the Jag!!
I'd probably go for the 911... :)

i agree, the jag blows. its the least appealing of the group, then the BMW 6 looks ok as i like GT's but the Porsche wins my vote. it would be more fun to drive than the big ol 6.
 
i think the Jag looks too old, the styling hasn't been changed for many years, and I believe that the interior space is too cramped...the Porsche is a sweet car....but
the best of the all is the BMW 6....it has aggressive styling and screams personality,
even if it doesn't perform well on sand, where i live, we don't have any sand!! :lol:
Chris Bangle has designed another masterpiece!! :D
 
I agree the Porsche is pretty nice (not the Porsche I'd get if I were to get one), but I like the size and the luxury of the 6 series.
 
Well if it was my money I wouldn't buy any of these...

BMW: don't like the looks of it, specially the rear, it's big and isn't that sporty...

Porsche: Old, base model... although it's a nice base model heh! the interior is eww but it's perfs are good

Jag: looks old, IS old! no matter if it's S/C'd or not

I voted for the best of them.. the Porsche but if I had to buy something in this class I'd prolly go with an SL or a Maserati Coupe
 
i would take the BMW.

i wouldnt buy an ugly car with my money, so the porsche is out.

and the jag.........well, im 6 foot 4"..................
