    I'd have put the Porsche a Partagas Serie D #4. But what do I know.
    What Series II are the referring to on the Rolls? I must be missing something.

    Wonder what they would suggest for the Bugatti Veyron, the Mercedes Mclaren SLR, and the Pagani Zonda... I think the Davidoff Royal Salute or something of that nature would be a fine choice for any of those Hypercars... tho the Zonda is still Supercar status

    I would put the SLR Mclaren with a Litto Gomez Diez Chisel. Smooth, powerful, and able to knock you on your butt if you arent careful. The A8L is more like a My Father Lancero. Its smooth and defined but not a heavyweight in the performance department.

    No way man. The DPG was elegant, floral, and medium. That LG punches you in the sack like a short Asian man. And yea, the car is kinda cool too.

    hahaha, stuff like this is fun, thanks for posting Scarlin.

    Although I gotta ask, how'd they pick their cars though? Seems like a random assortment, with the exception tha they all range from really nice to movie star nice and then 3 old school finned classics. I gotta say, there is only 1 car on that list I would ever have any interes in and its the bel air. I even prefer the 56 to the 57 becuase it just has a meaner stance with the more subtle fins.

    We need an everyman section here,
