I don't care if thats what you think they would be. Skis are not cars... so there is no comparison. I would actually take new skis over a car

I'd take a car over new skis, then sell the car to buy more than one pair of skis.

you don't understand, thats not the scenario, its would you take one or the other thats like when you get three wishes and wishing for more wishes... thats not the point. However, in the real world I would probably do that

talking about quality and brand image, I think OP is spot on. Especially K2 compared to Ford.

 4FRNT might be Dodge

Dope cars, but they're french so no one drives them, or even knows they exist.

K2 should be GM/Chrysler since they both own everything.

Volkl = Mercedes GLK
Rossignol = Chevy Camarro
Blizzard = Lexus E class
Line = Toyota or Subaru beater of some sort
Armada = Subaru Impreza WRX...AR7 or JJ gets the up to STI
ON3P = Volskwagen MK1 GTI
Amplid = Nissan 240sx
Salomon = Honda Accord
Ninthward = Honda Civic...The one that douche at high school drives with the fart can, body kit, and wing
4FRNT = Nissan Skyline GTR (1999)

Ultimately depends on the model of ski not just the brand though

So then would Full Tilt = Pirelli?
I think Armada best fits Mclaren, top-of-the-line, sexy, and high performance.

BMW definitely would not be armada... i would put them more on par with k2 or atomic. K2 lead the charge with a lot of tech for skiing similar to what bmw has done for vehicles.

Full tilt would be a 76 mustang. They're fun to have but they're old and not very durable
