i would buy that endless brake kit we all b*tched about.....

20valvewynn83 · 08-19-2012, 05:46 AM

I would buy a 1964 Lincoln Continental $30K

and then buy a Scion FRS and use the rest of the money to mod the shit out of it

Or just buy a Lexus LS 460 L AWD

Now if i had $1.4m i would get the v12 Aston Martin One-77

I had 80k to spend on a car. Was going to buy a 135i.
Love my 86 and got 40k to spare.

Go Buy an 86 and save the money if you don't like it you have 40k left to either mod it or trade your 86 and buy something else.....

I'm not a fan of the C class. The interior is gawdy and there's too many buttons/controls, most of which are counter-intuitive to use. If I were going to buy a car in that segment, it would be the Audi A4/S4 or BMW 328i/335i. I'm a little biased because I drove a 2012 S4 for the past 6 months while working at Audi, but the new BMW 3 series comes with high praise, too. My parents have owned several M-B's in the past and I just can't get excited about them. If it's in your budget (not sure how much they cost in Australia), the 2013 S5 coupé is absolutely brilliant! It's just a tad better than the S4 in ergonomics, but the styling is incredible (in my opinion), and the back seat will fit passengers, unlike the 86

Obviously the 86 is a completely different animal. I suggest you try the Audis and BMW's and then drive an 86, and see which one you'd prefer to live with.

Silly question in the wrong forum, but I'll play. If i had 80k. I'll still get the 86. You have to decide what you want a family sedan or a sports car. Two different animals. The C250 is a nice Merc but it caters for a different crowd.

If I had to choose something else other than these two:

RS4/ RS6
R34 GTR
HSV R8/ GTS
BMW M3
Chev Camaro
Honda NSX
TVR T350

Could go on, but thee you go

You can get 911 996 turbo's for around $80k as it is.. Nearly bought one a couple of months ago. They are coming down in price quite nicely.

Oh, I'd get a BRZ and a Tesla Model S.
