I think the same top two as above, but with the FRS 3rd. Have a feeling one of the 'lesser' competitors will fare well this time around.

Edit:

That's more like it then smile I therefore change my top 3 to put the M2 in place of the RS.

I think 911R will walk it but the R8 will surprise and rank 2nd.

I haven't driven any of them, but from the reviews I've read this year, I reckon 911 R first place and 570S second. It'll be interesting to see how the new Alfa does on UK roads. spin
Is that because the 911R was meant to be cheaper than the 570S? They should be working out the value on current purchase prices, in which case the 570S looks a bargain compared to the now much more expensive 911R. whistle

What an awful list.

How ugly have new cars become.

They 991R is an extra ugly Porsche.
The Huracan is the ugliest Lambo in recent years.
The 570s is the ugliest Mclaren to date (at the front).
The GT8 looks like its passed through a girls makeup room.

Forget how they drive. They have to look good first.

By the way this is Evo. The 911R has already won.

Think it would be the M2 or 911 for me. The huracan could also surprise as i believe it was the 580 rwd one.

I wonder where they will be heading only reason to really be around here is on route to Northern Ireland or roads around Dumfries and Galloway. We do have some pretty spectacular local roads but nobody seems to know about them.

Interesting the GT8 is there. Other than the noise I thought everybody who reviewed it just found it pointless and just not very good?

It's almost as if though looks are entirely subjective or something.

No 488? Surely has to be in the mix.

911R is one of the least adorned 911 shapes in recent years and a return to form
Huracan, is one of the purer less shocking shapes from Lamborghini in recent offerings.
The 570s is one of the smoother, purer forms from McLaren also
So for those three, you have an issue with the pure of form?
You want something wilder?
Yet the GT8 ... race car stuff for the road and track...is now too much?

All of them have rather wonderful interiors too!

yes

Agree with above, M2 does seem to be the obvious one that's missing.

Well, there's a Porsche on the list and no Renault so we know how this turns out...

Ah - 911 R then. As said by QuickMoose, a return to form and hopefully, together with Aston's commitment (and TVR if it happens) to manual gearboxes, an new era of performance cars that favour the thrill of driving over the shortest time to 62mph in a straight line. Cars that you actually need to know how to drive or else they will throw you into the scenery.

Porsches especially the 911 need as big spoiler to hide their fat saggy ass as per GT3 RS and Cayman GT4.

Subjective is preferring a 458 over a 488. Preferring a 911 or R8 is borderline delusional.

The Huracan has gone too round as per R8.

The Mclaren front looks like a puppet face and the rear is too low like the P1. The P1 looks best with its spoiler up at all times. View a P1 for sale and the spoiler will usually always be up in the pics. (P1 rear looks st with the spoiler down).

Any of the 2015 Ecoty cars are better than this lot.
