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)

 
Where are this pics at people!! :disgust:


Anyways, what else am I going to rob a bank with when cops only have silly little .45 pistols :Q
 
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.

Muahaha!

 
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.
 


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.
