Mike Burroughs Beemer is gorgeous. My vote would go to him.
I cant believe this list is so bias of SpeedHunter Sponsored Cars.
I cant believe a rusty ass Chopped Top BMW that was hott 2 years ago is about to with Car of 2010 when this isnt even the car he cares about anymore!
and
I cant believe the state scene.

I vote for Porsche 918

I didn't vote for it as the "Retro Machine" of the year, because IMO it's not so much of a Retro Machine. But as "Car of the year" I think Henry's S12 sums up quite well what I think of when I think about a speedhunters car of the year. It's rare, individually modified, looks awesome with its mix out of retro and drift style and is capable of some serious drifting.

RTR-X. I'd say Rusty, but I don't like his flat top look, yet I'm sure he's gonna pull ahead on this one, and I have mad respect for him accordingly. He's the poster child of a custom car with us "older" folk grew up with in hot rods and low riders, yet with a full euro/import helping as it's roots.
Rusty of course.
