$100000 to spend.....

[schnoods]

100k for a vehicle and you dont know what to buy?

Man you need to go window shopping and test drive everything till your happy with one!

If it were me, I'd be buying a drag car of somesort, or something circuit orientated. Especially if you have cars that you drive regularly on the street.

[El Venom]

see I would be different and get a ta23 toyota celica. then I have loads to spend on making a toyota supercharged v8 fit along with custom metal work done to make it even more like a mini shelby mustang

[Fev]

I think i could go for a E30 model AC schnitzer M5 series beemer, Merc silver respray, plush black leather, very dark tint, a built and supercharged, 6spd Man, full top quality sound, low with some very deep dish BBS rims.

somethin like this



classy gangster machine


or maybe in a metalic black

[irpacaus]

Well that is easy for me.

Aston Martin DB9. I live in the UK currently and now 204/05 models can be picked up for 45k pounds which is about $90k Aussie. That will leave me $10k for insurance.

I have only 25k more punds to save till I can actually buy one.

Then your up for 3-4k to ship it, compliancing and rego costs and dreaded GST and import taxes. Figure $150,000+ once they are registered.

Yep but that is when I finally come home. Been here for 5.5 years now so it will be a little while yet before I have to pay that extra stuuf to get it into Oz. So I didn't count the costs to get it home in my budget as it will be used here for a few years first so it still comes in under the $100k limit for this thred hey hey hey.

[mik]

if someone wants to give me 100k ....i would be very happy with a fg gt or a gte t ( it would be close 49/51 it would be the gt i think) and with the change, fit straight LPG liquid injection, , there might be a few bucks left for a hair dryer on the au .

[BrisVegas]

I'd import a Focus RS as my car. Should be a fair chunk of change left out of $100k, so I'd get a low mileage Territory Ghia as well for the family.

Be sensible please.....

911s of course or a used Aston

[Trek]

VH coupe, in the same metallic blue or the black one, with tinted lights as seen at Chryslers by the Bay, complete my XC and a Landau/worked ZH Marquis maybe...

[imugli]

NSX and work it.

[BFZ Wagon]

WOW. There's so much to choose from with 100k. I've compacted my list down to the following :P

I'd have an FG XR6T in 'Sensation' & a 2009 Ford Ranger WildTrak in 'Winning Blue'
Or FG G6E-T in 'Sensation' & Skoda Scout TDi 4x4 wagon (in Blue of course)

An Audi Q7 3.0 V6 TDi or Volkswagen Touareg 3.0 V6 TDi

Or if I couldn't get those.. I'd go for an SY Territory Turbo Ghia (in Sensation of course!) & the rest of the money could go to the cost of putting petrol in it for the next year.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. :

Or if anyone doesn't want their Shockwave Blue BA/BF falcon anymore, I'll have it! ;) I want a blue car sooo much.

I'll stop rambling on now!

[BPXR6T]

Personally I have a GT for weekend cruises, a Boxster S for a commuter, and am either picking up a supercharged elise or an exige later this year. I would like an Elfin MS8 instead of the lotus but it's just not right for me unfortunately. Its in you price range though if you want only one car. You could also look at a good second hand 911 or a new Audi TT for that money. Girlfriend has the Audi and it's a great drive.

[mcnews]

Nice garage, I would get a shifter kart over the Lotus though as they are about as practical :-) Have you tried getting in and out of one....?

[BPXR6T]

Lotus isn't everyones cup of tea. This will be a part time track car and only used for the occassional flick around the hills. Looks like fun to me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpZefXD-U9s

Still would like that MS8 though. The below car is up for sale for $115,000. I might go for a wander over to the Elfin factory tomorrow as they're located just behind my house. Just for a look.

[CFOUR]

silver or black c63 for me. i would prefer a amg black but there another 50k+

[Spanrz]

Give me a Caterham with a Hyabusa Motor.

[Kaan]

I would go for FG F6, GT-P or GT-E. fully optioned

[TERRY TORRY]

: : Hi. Keep my 06 TS Territory, invest the money and run the Terry on the interest. Glen. : :

only problem is thats WAY over 100k - atleast for RHD versions

[Ibrox90]

I wouldnt mind a Morgan Aero 8 or an aero max

[TURBOTAXI]

Lets see, based on my current toy buying rules it would have to be something that I could sell for $150,000 in 5-10 years.

I realise you might not need to save the money, but its kinda cool to have toys that make money.

[DJM83]

Very nice

[EgoFalcon]

Very nice thread, full of dreams and fulse expectations for us, you could of shared the money. :-)
