I'd look hard for a low mileage C5 Vette and add a few bolt-ons

The STI is kinda small for a sedan and even for $15k the mileage would be higher than i would like and quite beat up.

I could find me a gently used 04/05/06 TL for that price. Perhaps even an 07 v6 Accord Sedan.

Originally posted by Gemini View PostAlot of good options listed thru out the thread but i still see some cars older than 2004 being listed, thats a no go. It has to be 04 or newer (being picky here).
Here is my list of cars i'm interested in(no specific order)
E39 BMW M5 (preferably 01-03)
2001 BMW 740i/il Sport Edition (i'ma a huge Transporter fan)
04-07 Infiniti G35 Coupe 6MT
04-07 Honda Accord V6 (Auto or 6MT)
00-06 Lexus GS3/4 (preferably Sport or Platinum edition - strong VIP platform)
01-06 Lexus LS430 (perfect VIP platform IMO)
04-07 Acura TL (preferably w/ A-spec kit)
I'm 6' 1'" - 2" and 280 lbs currently...should be down to 250 in a few months but i like spacious cars...i'm more into sedans as you can see.
I looked into the TSX which would be a bang for my buck but its quite small inside
I'm gonna look into the some of the other options listed and see if they change my mind but the E39 M5, E38 740 and the TL is winning at this moment.

2005 on Works:

You can get that car, those wheels and all the included suspension parts for under 15k?

I think the total cost for the 05 is around 36k right now, but the car itself was around 28k otd with 50k miles. Finding an 01 for under 15k is doable though.

Originally posted by Gemini View Postyea you can find an 01 for under $15k but miles would be close to 100k. The suspension and wheels can easily hit close to or over $10k especially if you get a new nice set of leon hardiritt wheels. When i browse vipstylecars.com it makes me feel so poor They sell used wheels on there for $2k to $4k

I always believe things that are worth having take time and patience since quality can't be rushed. As far as being responsible with money goes... At least with cars you will have a physical item to show for it at the end of the day. Once you decide to move on you'll have the memories and a percentage of the money spent.
