I'm curious as to which cars you guys would purchase, if you were given a "gift card" worth $100K to be used on any car (new or old). And no, you couldn't apply $60K of the money to a mortgage and get two SRT-6's with the rest, LOL. Although that makes TONS of sense

I say $100K limit, because otherwise, many folks would simply "Vote Veyron" and call it a day. $100K can produce wicked machines, but it's still "keepin it real".

I really want to hear some of the obscure choices, like the cars that (after aging a year or two) have dipped below the $100K mark. Rare Porsches, Mercedes, M6's... you get the idea.

So... let's hear 'em!

 

A car from the year I was born...1963 Chevy Impala...convertible of course and all show/go. A tralier queen!

 

A 2009 Chevy CORVETTE ZR1... OH that may be more then 100K.
OK I'll add the rest to my other car payments.

 

Not a drop top but still a SS Like this one ??

 

Fresh off the Leno post, I see...

It is a wicked car indeed. But yes, I'd say the dealers would bump it to over $100K.

 

~ the new nissan gtr (in white of course).

 

Lo rider! Been tossing the idea around and searching, but haven't pulled the trigger and haven't gotten the OK from the wife. I'm white, wife is Mexican and everytime I bring the subjest up she gives me grief. Car is too 'stereo typical" of her culture and doesn't like it. It's OK if I want to get a Ford. I'll pass on the Ford!

 

I've had the pleasure of riding in one. We've had quite a few rolling around @ our facility in Smyrna.

AFTER I caught my breath, I changed my shorts; to be followed by the ony syllable I could mutter: WOW

To say the car is fast, agile, and incredible, is an understatement. There are only two small faults I have with the GT-R:

• Exhaust note sounds like a Dyson
• It only requires ***** -- not skill -- to drive incredibly fast... dangerously fast.

That being said, it is perhaps the most incredible car-per-dollar out there on the market. And would probably get my vote, even though a lightly used M6 tugs at my heart strings.

The sound of the Bimmer V-10 at full-sing = heaven

 

I just checked, Thay have White.
Its a nice car!!

Good thing you didnt want silver, A $3,000.00 cost.

 

1958 BUICK LIMITED CONV.

 

My nod would be a Viper ACR.

Great variety guys, keep 'em coming

 

I would settle for a 2006 M-B SL65 AMG(around $80k used) and use the leftover money to reflash the ECU, CAI and some nice custom drag wheels and DRs.

 

Great minds think alike. I was thinking of a VERY similar combo.... Teetering between that and a used M6, lightly massaged by Hamann/Schnitzer.

One other thing I forgot to mention about the GT-R, that affects my decision negatively; and it's purely a local thing, with the proximity to so many Nissan Corporate Facilities in middle TN.... but I see roughly 1-2 GTRs a week. They've become almost commonplace since mid-summer.

I'm not even bullsh!tting when I say that (locally), the Crossfire is a rarer car.

 

Here's my short list:

1. Used Aston Martin DB9
2. Aston Martin V8 Vantage
3. Brand new Nissan GTR
4. Brand new Corvette Z06

Although the Nissan GTR is technically superior to either of the Aston Martins, I do have to say that I love the Aston Martin for the same reason that I love the Crossfire - it's just a great, great, great looking car.

 

I'd invest that 100K until I could afford a
