Question Buy yourself a Car. Post what you'd get if you were handed 35k

Say you were handed 35k to buy a new car. Post what you'd buy with your money. Has to be new.

Then take that same situation....with say 25k to buy a used car.




What car would you buy with your money? And you don't get to keep the extra cash if you decide to buy a 10k car. No money goes towards mods or whatever.



What would you put in your driveway?

I'll start it off since I made up the topic.

I think I'd go with an 04 Acura TL 6 speed for my new car.

And I'd probably go with an 02 or 03 Lexus IS300 for my used car. 5 speed of course.

I'd probably get either an 04 Lexus IS300 or 04 WRX STi or 04 EVO8.

Used cars? There's tons.

68 Charger 440 Magnum.
FC3S.
FD3S.
MKIV Supra.

Hell, that's just the *really* short list. I'm sure there's 100s more.

I really don't know how reliable and well built Infinitis are... but I do love the sound the G35 coupes make when they pass by. it sounds like a hum "shooooooooom" even when one's only goin 15 mph. The red ones looks sexy as hell. it's at the top of your price range


G35 coupe

Hey no offense but with 25K for a used car... and you guys can't think of putting your money to better use that a RSX-S??? I love the K20a2 powerplant... but hell since you get to just have the car stock as the first post stated your car would suck... half of us would tell your car to blow me just with a simple rev... and you'd be running away wiht your tails between ur legs... c'mon think of some better **** and post it up lol
