It's all a bit hypothetical because I have never driven those cars - and probably never will.

But ..... I wouldn't have either of the three in the poll.

For road use I would get a Jaguar JP1 - I have driven the track version twice now and I know it laps the west circuit at Bedford in the UK faster than the Carrera GT:



Engine: V6, 2968cc, 24v
Max power: 280bhp @ 7200rpm
Max torque: 230lb ft @ 5000rpm
0 - 60mph: 3.8sec (claimed)
Top Speed: 170mph (claimed)
Price: £51,500

For track days - it can only be the Caparo T1:



Maximum Speed: >322kmh (200mph)
(Low downforce setup)
0-160-km/h (0-100mph): <5 seconds
0-96km/h (0-60mph): <2.5 seconds
(depending on tyre setup)
Lateral acceleration: Up to 3g+
Braking deceleration: Up to 3g+
