| As much as I love the SLS, the 458 is just perfection between the three.

| McLaren for me! I'm very very very curious about this All-McLaren master-piece! Must be fabulous! Front-end styling of Sls does nothing to me... very retro! And the 458 has generic looks, imo! ![]()

| SLS of course! This is Mercedes-Benz at its finest! Incredible car! 2. McLaren MP4-12C- Looks beautiful; just a shame the SLS looks better. 3. F458: Many won't agree with me; but the Ferrari is starting to look *gasp* ugly next to my top two... ![]()

| I'm going to base this PURELY on looks and not performance or anything since we don't REALLY know what these cars can do. SLS for me. It's just SO f__king beautiful.

| I have minor issues with the way all 3 look but Ferrari gets the nod. And on paper, it is between F458 and Macca and I have no idea how they both will stack up, so I will wait. |

| SLS hands down.. Funny how the Ferrari gets beat in the looks department by the SLS and probably in the driving department by the McLaren.. And a few weeks ago it was hailed as the next best thing after sex... The car world is ruthless..

| I dont think the SLS drive and goes like the other two. SLS is no sportscar like the others. So its between Ferrari and Mclaren. I dont know much about them but I think I go with Ferrari, N/A and 9000 rpm redline.

| the SLS might not be as track oriented as the Mclaren or the Ferrari, but it's hardly "not a sportscar". If the SLS isn't a sports car, then what does that make the M3, Corvette, GT-R, 911, etc?

(Of course Im just guessing since we dont know anything about these three but looking at the specs, 458 and Mclaren is above the SLS and thats why my votes gos to either Ferrari or Mclaren.)

| Either SLS or the McLaren. Can't decide. F458 is an eye-sore for me. |

| SLS AMG – Is simply mind blowing beauty and sure to be an MB classic Ferrari 458 – Irresistible design and has the engineering to back it up McLaren – Sure it looks fast and has the right “equipment”, but it looks like your average sports car. Nothing about it looks seem special. It really comes down to the SLS and Ferrari 458. Since both look extraordinary as far as exterior I will have to use interior to decide. In that case….the SLS wins. |
