Dude...invest it and buy some $10k car that will have only high insurance rates instead of stratospheric until you turn 25 and get married.

Why drop $60k at your age on a depreciating asset and drop hundreds/month on insurance??

agree.

BMW M3 is better than any of your choices. Spend a couple hundred on clothes before you go to buy, otherwise they won't take you seriously.

Sorry but why put $20,000 worth of mods into a front wheel drive grocery getter. Pick up the older Audi S4 ttv6, chip it, ihe and you will be running with m3s all day long.

I would like to spend around $30k-60k. If I spend 30k I will most likey add 20k in Mods to the car and if I spend close to 60k on the car I will just leave it stock.

Here are my choices (In the order I like):
1st (tie) 2004 Infiniti Q45
1st (tie) 2004 Lexus Ls430
2nd 2004 Acura TL
3rd 2004 Nissan Maxima - All Options
4th Used Audi A8 2002?

need some suggestions..


how about an AWD G35 that's due in soon?

Yes I have a Maxima vs a Ls430 because if I was to get the Maxima I would probably add 3 t.v screens in there, playstation 2, with a g35 spoiler, 20" wheels, great sounding audio system and a couple mods to make it have more torque steer (Which I heard can be solved by getting it with the VSD(?) ). I really love the way the Maxima looks.
Now there's a valuable mod.

Ya, he has all this money but he can't pay his friend $200.
I guessing he's banned by now.
He should just commit suicide with all the problems that he have.

Lancer EVO 8 :D but ur tall so...

BIG BAD MONSTER TRUCK!

I think the maxima is "BUTT" ugly, literally... the front looks ok

The Lexus is amazing, the infinite will give u electrical problems, just ask my neighbor. I test drove the Acura, and its no different from the 03 TL cept it's bigger and bumpier, Honda style. (Good traction though)
