I'll say B&M just because I haven't been on enough Intamins to judge properly. I've been on 8 B&M's but only 2 Intamins. THose being Vertical Velocity and American Eagle at SFGAm. Manta and X-Flight are my favorites right now. I will say though, I really liked the few Gerstlauers I've been on.

I chose intamin because their rides are far more intense, extreme, and overall more epic. They love to push the envelope, and even though it's come back to bite them, I love it.
Ive been on I-305, Kingda Ka, and Stormrunner, and they are all in a different stratosphere compared to any B&M.
My choice isn't up there: RMC. I've only been on one RMC, which is Goliath at SFGAm, but that ride is incredible. There are only a few airtime moments, but the sheer intensity makes up for it. If it really is the worst of the RMCs like everyone else says, then I can't wait to ride the other ones!
^ Sorry about that, didn't notice. Well, RMC makes steel coasters too with their Iron Horse treatments, so I guess they could still be considered here.
If I was the head of a park I would go with B&M, good ride quality, riders per hour, safety, and reliability. But as a coaster enthusiast, Intamin is far superior in delivering a more intense and memorable ride. Xcelerator! Superman escape from krypton and lex Luther! And I've been on MF, TTD, and I don't know how you can forget TTD003! MAVRICK!!
