if you had to choose between an ugly fast car and a sexy slow car which would you choose?

im just curious to see where everyone will stand with this… i have a good feeling most of us are more about speed, but i could be wrong

edit:  
slow = 0-60 in 9 sec  
fast = 0-60 in 4.5 sec

slow sexy car for me, as I am a sucker for hot cars, and technically by today’s standards…classic muscle is slow…

unless we’re talking tops out at 45mph slow, then i change my answer

Define slow as that could mean 19 second 1/4, 13 second 1/4 or just 0-60 in 9 seconds…

the baldwin phase III camaro in its time came thru without a radio heater ect, it was released just for racing, theywere a low 11 second car in 68 on the crap tires they had thenn with a proper driver they could have been in the high 10s, without slicks.

Imagine that on todays slicks

> All Baldwin-Motion sales promotion materials carried Rosen’s guaranty. “We think so much of our Phase III Supercars that we guaranty they will turn at least 120 mph in 11.50 seconds or better with an M/P-approved driver on an AHRA or NHRA-sanctioned drag strip. Phase III Supercars are completely streetable, reliable machines that will run these times off the street.” **There never was a single comeback!**
