What would you do with $80 000?
Hey everyone,
I think we are all in agreement that the 86 is a great car.... But if you had a budget of $80 000 to buy a new car would you still buy the 86? If not what would you get? I'm tossing up between the 86 and the Mercedes c250 coupe.... They are completely different cars which is making the decision that much more difficult. |

Get a BRZ and save the rest to modify it.

if i had 80k to spend on a car, id still get the 86. if it wasnt fast enough for you. 10-15k will turn the car into a monster. If you only care what people think of what brand car you are driving, then buy the merc... im pretty sure sydney Buses are mercs too...

I am recently married without any kids I could easily drop $100K on a car, but don't feel I need to Instead I am going to use my money to invest for the future All I need out of a car is an engaging drive The 86 fits the bill and its cheap to boot |

I'd be getting a BRZ Limited, wait for good mods in 1 year, and go mod crazy. However if I could spend it on anything I'd pay my Uni tuition

You're asking an 86/brz/fr-s enthusiast forum, I'm pretty sure you know what most of the answers will be lol.

A used Lotus Exige, there are no new cars for $80k that I'd be interested in.
