Dayum, 80k!?

I would:
Lease a cheap truck (to tow the cars) - 3k down 250/month
Barely used honda fit for a daily (love my fit) - 15k
1st gen Acura NSX (personal dream car) - 35k
2nd gen MR2 (Just beacuse) - 10k
and spend the other 20k on track days and consumables.

Really tho. The Honda Fit complements the FRS well and it makes the FRS feel like a rocket.

... How did the telephone pole get where it is? The A-pillars and firewall look unbroken. Did the car slide backwards into the pole fast enough to travel that far through the car? Is this really one of your dioramas? Excellent work, if so.

The brakes look salvageable. Dibs.

Sounds like he wrapped it around from the drivers side.

"Over the past two years, the 26-year-old car owner has been fined for over speeding more than 20 times.+

The identity of the burnt the day before sports car owner became known. It was Arthur Moiseev, the son of the Kuppersberg Group company head Andizhan Moiseev. +
Recall, on the eve at the Rostovskaya embankment in Moscow Maserati Ghibli burned after a car accident. The car moved at high speed in the far right row and, apparently, the driver did not manage to drive on a slippery road. The sports car was thrown onto the sidewalk, where it crashed into the mast of lighting, then fired."

I hate it when my car gets fired.

Haha I had a feeling this is what you were thinking. Why not a Lexus LS460 or another big luxury sedan, maybe a Mercedes E wagon, Audi A7, BMW 6 coupe? Or as other people suggested, Maserati Ghibli? Actually, it sounds like parking space isn't a problem and your FRS is so modified that the resale value is crap anyways, so why not just get the Aston too :P

I ran the numbers and found the Vantage is actually fairly reasonable if I had a little more cash that I could throw away, but I also need an extra parking spot for it which is a big problem in the Bay Area.

the answer is simple. WRX STI for winter and offroad carnage. :burnrubber:

You totally get me man. Yup the FRS resale value is pretty crappy after the final drive swap so might as well keep it. Probably will go with the vantage S haha

Yep. At least for me. Probably isn't most folks taste on here though. Basically this is my retirement garage.

At the very least, everything you drive will sound awesome. :cheers:

Also thinking about supercharging the FRS running Michelin PSS and using the rest of the money on a panamera turbo used.

Car 1: GT86 with Harrop Supercharger

Car 2: R35 GTR

Screw practicality.

Uh, that sounds pretty practical to me :P

The FRS is pretty freaking practical, and the R35 GTR also has back seats lol.

I'd rock an Aston Martin Vantage and something ultra-light and stripped out like a Factory Five 818.
