I'm going to say the DeLorean because it takes only 1.21 jigawatts and 88 miles per hour to go traveling through time (however, it is assumed that it only goes back to 1885 at the earliest and nobody knows how far past 2015 it can go)

Also, Back to the Future is fucking awesome, especially the references to Tab and Pepsi Free

I'm tempted to say TARDIS because of our [trope=TimeLord]friendly website[/trope] and because of


But the DeLorean is a classic.

There's probably an obscure one I'm forgetting about that I liked the best, but eh.

Also I guess artifacts like the Pedestal/Ocarina/Harp/whatever of Time or living things like Celebi don't count, right?

I'll say the Epoch, because CT is awesome

I guess Link's Harp of Ages doesn't count because it's not a machine.

Epoch. It looks cool and at least you know it works.

No better machine than the DeLorean! Except for maybe the train, but that's still from Back to the Future.

I have my own time machine, and I'll never tell you how I made it.

Duct tape, a cardboard box, and a pocket-watch?

"Let's think different"

DeLorean: Requires 88mph, has the durability of a car still (remember the end of Part 3, with the train?). Is limited to a 4-digit year system and does not change position when time traveling. Which is -shit- if you're going to run it on the ground or into an air-traffic future. Gotta respect that it was one guy on his own (forget the supplies part) that made this.

Epoch: Requires a lot of distance to build up speed (doesn't it loop around the world map or some shit?), has uh...enough durability short of breaking through an armored carapace. Is limited to time zones already shown on its dial, though it does not face the threat of air traffic (how?). Also has an SNES controller for its controls. (I think)

Tardis: Requires time to launch / warm-up (only shown to do it quickly one time for some reason), has...unknown durability?, it has a shield so you don't see it getting hit often--oh right it took the full frontal of a laser blast or something in "1-13" from a Dalek ship. Runs off organic parts (?) so it lacks the longetivity of a machine...except well, Time Lord Organitech or some crap. Need enough IQ to know how to run the damn thing though, look at all those things it's got on the control panel. Oh, and it has a lot of clothes. Change your look to match your place.

Ok so, maybe there's a bias, but that just means I don't have to say which one I voted for.

Tardis. It has everything you need and it's bigger on the inside.

And no love for the hot tub time machine?
