If your E55 could have a stablemate

What would it be?

Mine is on ebay now and it's driving me crazy!

1978 Porsche 934 2200lbs with 650hp video

A Lamborghini Diablo 6.0. There's just something magic about the Diablo. They can keep the new ones.

Why Mitsu? Something cheap like that? Puhleezeee.

Whatever the stablemate is, it needs to meet and or exceed the luxury in the E55, otherwise it's not a stablemate; it sleeps outside.

"What's one man's junk, is another man's treasure" right Ricky? Not calling an Evo junk but the saying came to mind.

Opinions are like *******s, everyone has one.

Touche

BTW: I'm half joking about my previous post. The Mitsu is a great car, but as a stablemate to the E55? Naw.

No longer stock '06 E55, A3 3.2 Quattro, LRD4 HSE, R107 280SL
Gotta be a modded P car ... as per the old turbo shown in post #1 ... those are just mind blowing ...

But I think any of these would work ....

1 Radical
2 Ariel Atom
3 Any 930 Porsche incarnation thats had some fat turbos added.
4 Noble M15 (much more refined and more HP than the M14).
5 TVR - well still not sure if they are going bust or not but sheez they are quick and very nice styling.
6 Winnebago
7 Lambo Countach
8 Maserati Muira
9 Bentley Azure
10 Rolls Royce Phantom
11 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S
12 McLaren F1
13 Bugatti Veyron ....
14 Tesla ? (Edit: added after I saw the website... makes Prius look like a dinosaur.)

Well getting ahead of myself now and most budgets ...

The point is that the E55 is such a complete performer you can "afford" to go for something really extreme...

I like that choice the most. There is something inherently elegant about the engineering of the exoskeleton on that vehicle, and the choice of low weight and high revving motor makes me think "street legal shifter kart" with the road visiblity of a motorcycle- extremely defensive or attacking style of street driving required for survival.

'06 E55 Black/Charcoal
I think a G55,C6 Zo6 or 997 TT. I know there is big difference, but I can't make up my mind wether I would want something faster or something more versatile. Plus I am sorry but the new Zo6 is so mean looking.

A CGT, Ruf BTR, CTR or Rt12 would be nice too!!

The CGT is probably the best sounding car on the street:Check out this video: Oh mama! a CGT with Straight Pipes
