Default Do the 918, La Ferrari, and P1 deserve creme de la creme status?

Sure the Carrera GT and Enzo deserved creme de la creme. They were tops in every category and super trick. However the current generation are not cut from the same cloth or something. I mean now there are a ton of hypercars with a lot more power and a lot more trick. As well as carbon is not that advanced anymore. Entry level supercars have carbon. In addition, all three are hybrids. Which means you only have full blast for a few minutes and after that you are just a supercar owner. For instance, if you are having a friendly mix up with a Huracan on the Autobahn, well then for the first few minutes you will spank him silly. But after that he will spank you silly because your battery will be juiced and he weighs much less with same power. And that should never happen. A creme of the crop hypercar should be able to spank an average supercar at all times. And not just in the first few minutes. What you think?

I don't think you understand how these cars work. They do not "run out of power" while driving. They are the current pinnacle of performance just as other cars have been during their eras.

Before bothering replying to such a stupid thread you should check who kulak is : he had a different user name and got banned because of ridiculous posts,battering and insulting other members.

However it was not my intention to start a class war argument because it is a terrible idea these days to discuss money. I mean nearly everyone loves it nowadays. And if you speak ill of it, well then you will get beat up. No joke. And so then I try to avoid talking about the good and bad points of money at all costs.

I did no such thing. I merely pointed out to the poor bastards that they had been had. That behind its glossy veneer, richie is quite hazardous. And not something worth having nor lusting after. And hence the give your money to the poor and you shall be saved in the ancient texts. And they became quite offended and a melee ensued.
