Best car in price range (game)
 
Lets play, best/ most fun car in the price range that money can buy you, lets do 10-50k, so please give me ideas on what you think is the best bang for the buck for a car enthusiast.

Just trying to help a friends consider some fun cars at various price ranges and I want to know what everyone else thinks is a car worth test driving and checking out to compare.

10k - G35 Coupe
20k - 335i coupe
30k - STI
40k - mustang GT
50k - M3/ Final edition Evo X

There are a stupid number of variables involved here, including what the car will need to be used for, how reliable it needs to be, will the owner DIY at all, etc etc etc.

40k-50k - Corvette C6 Z06
7.0L V8 you can fix with a hammer 505hp
Wrecking many vehicles around tracks twice its price range.
Sometimes you can get lucky and find a low km one with a Superchager strapped to it like this that has to be running ~750hp. Change the oil on time and drive the piss out of it and it will never break.

Personal preferences are welcome which is why I need a list of cars in the price range so my buddies can get out there and see what they like.

The average car enthusiast is willing to spend a little more money for an exciting car, so ignore maintenance, DIY and all that fun stuff.

calls himself car enthusiast, cars listed are all around less than 10 yrs old :troll:

Having a garage and building something that you love = the best car

lol no way in hell i could ever pay 50k for an evo. while it is a performance powerhouse, its still a cheap econo-box on the inside.

sadly, these days people could care less about the old "built not bought" saying. so many guys out there dont even know how to change a tire or even check the oil on their cars.

This game sucks.

knight604 06-30-2015 08:05 PM

10k g35 coupe , you lost the game already.

Alby 06-30-2015 08:13 PM

e39 m5 is best.

Mr.C 06-30-2015 08:23 PM

10-50k?

- Alpina B12 6.0
- Cadillac XLR-V
- Audi A8L W12

off the top of my head. The Caddy would probably be the most reliable, but who cares.

literally spent 10 min trying to find the dipstick the first time. This coming from a guy who built a ford powered jeep with chevy axles.

G35 isn't a "fun" car. It's an overweight, "luxurious" 350z. If you want the fun car out of the pair, the Nissan is the one to choose.

Either way, much better cars to pick from with the used market at that price point.

multicartual 07-01-2015 12:55 AM

G35 feels like a pig, the interiors rattle like a foxbody Mustang!
