Yet another non-American car bashing by Valhalla1...:disgust: :|
BTW, Valhalla1, would you still have enough money left over for a chiropractor?
Remember that people want different things for their money. Many would take an ultra-refined $100K+ luxury sedan over anything else for its, uh, luxury, safety, size, and, performance. On the other hand, there are people like yourself who prefer no-holds barred racecars that are built for purely speed and little more. Somewhere in the middle are people who would take a mix of the two - a racer with luxurious amenities - in the form of, say, an M5 or Porsche 911. I am probably somewhere on the luxury side of the scale.

I didn't "bash" anything in this thread? WTF?
I just stated my choice. And when SVT said everything was Euro, I pointed out that my choice wasn't (and never will be)

2000 Dodge Hennessey Viper Venom 800TT

If I'm gonna spend THAT much on a car it better be a race car.
If I'm going to get a sedan for a "All Around Car" then I'll get a Focus or something. As part of the "All Around" it should be cheap to buy and cheap to maintain. It's a freakin Car I'm not going to spend a bunch of time in it. And if I was it would be on a Track or "Cruising", And I'm not gonna cruise or race in a Family Sedan. If I have $130,000 for a car then I can get a Focus for under 20K and save the rest for plane tickets if I need to go long distances.
Otherwise: Get in Car, Go to destination, Get what I came for, Get back in car, Go home.
If the point is to get a power car then I'll go for all out race. Most people who have an all out race car have a beater to commute in.

Watch out for the guys with Desert Eagles and Rifles and you'll be set in that car... If anything then just get a Loomis Armored Truck then.
Hummers suck. The ride is frikin bumpy as hell.
The only good thing is that the glass is completely bullet proof.

Maybe an S8 (more comfortable)
But probably an M5 (more fun to drive)
Now, if BMW made an M6 or M7...
BWAHAHAHA

What happens to the Japanese cars?
I'll take the *All New Honda CIVIC 2001*
J/K
I'll pick Merz CLK430 and save the remaining amount of money
Hehehhehehe.................
Here is what I would do:
Get the Viper 2000 Dodge Hennessey Viper Venom 800TT (closest to 130K I could find).
Sell it for ~$125K and get a Supra Twin-Turbo ~$30K (Don't think I could afford to own the Viper once i got it).
Spend $20K on tuning the Supra.
Which leaves me with ~$75K to invest in a variety of Bio-Engineering stock.
Why? Here, here, here and here.
And SSP, can you say 1000 Horse Power?
Supra vs Skyline, Supra vs 911, Supra @ 180mph+.

A really neat Acura integra and put a big tail on the back, and one of them 7 inch muffler tips on it , and a ton of stickers, tint the windows. Neon light under the hood for when I show off at the 7-11 on Friday night. Paint Nuespeed on the hood. Gold plate all the emblems.
And then shove it off a cliff right after I torch it.
Then with my left over $128,500 I would go to the Barrett-Jackson auto auction and pick me up a concours 1966 Ford Cobra 427/4 speed. Maybe something like this..Enought to turn me on. Even though it's fake.
I might take one of these if I had to..A sweet little ride.
