i think zonda is by far the more exotic car, thats like comparing a honda to a bmw, although i wouldnt mind either if it were given to me

I think the RX-8 is more exotic that both. It doesn't even use the conventional piston engine!

ok maybe not a honda,

Originally a production run of 1,500 cars was planned. But Porsche announced in August, 2005 that it would not continue production of the Carrera GT through 2006, citing discontinuation was due to changing airbag regulations in the US. As of May 6, 2006, 1,270 GT's had been manufactured, with 604 being sold in the United States.[4]
Production of the Zonda F will be limited to 25 cars, still not US compatible. The next model, due to be unveiled in 2009, will be fully EPA/DOT compatible.

Not to get off topic, but,...

I have not seen either car in person. I have seen/heard an Enzo. O.M.G. Magazine pictures do not do this car justice.

If any of you want to see a Carrera GT in person, you guys can come to my car club meet in the spring. People bring all kinds of exotics, and every year a guy brings his CGT. I will admit that the exhaust note is AMAZING in person.




Here's the thread with more pics of the CGT and other nice cars all over the first page. I don't want to post huge pics in this thread too. https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-multimedia-photo-gallery-6/university-maryland-meet-07-pics-115424/

Way back when i was given the privilege of seeing one in person when they first came out. Somehow at an insurance company this car was parked a half mile away from my house. I took pictures and stood there in awe of this car. It may still be on this website

Edit: found the link

I didn't see this video posted, and since everyone is talking about the sound of the CGT, I think it's appropriate:
