Re: You are given 500k to purchase CARS ONLY. Which cars do you buy?
screw new cars, 69' camaro'sss, 70-71 big block E-body mopars. Or SB E-body cars, build hemi 4spd clone and flip them.
Or buy an 06' viper, break the diff 6 times, then sue DC and win a judgement of $160k +legal fees for an $80k car. Hey it's been done before, might as well try it again.  |

Re: You are given 500k to purchase CARS ONLY. Which cars do you buy?
everything listed in my sig adds up to about 225k when purchased new which i did. i am keeping all of these rides except my vette. so my plan is to sell my 2004 C5 Z06 and replace it with the new C6 Z06. that still leaves me with a good $250k left to play with so i will be buying a 2006 ford GT used in 2008. will probably end up paying $150k tax free dollars for that from a private party sale, so that leaves me with another $100k left over to by the new shelby GR-1 if they decide to build it; or the the new trans-am and the new challenger if they decide to build either one of those. here is a pic of the new trans-am that could be built as early as 2008.

Re: You are given 500k to purchase CARS ONLY. Which cars do you buy?
you are all going about this wrong....
You REALLY need to buy the cars wrecked and in pieces. Example, had a line on a wrecked ENZO for $250k. I was $249k short, but still,, buy them wrecked and then repair yourself, really stretches the budget. RAM srt10 red, wrecked 800 miles only $22k, rusted to the ground 440 superbird $25k. and I would focus more on the OLD mopar iron, just save a TON of depreciation. |

Re: You are given 500k to purchase CARS ONLY. Which cars do you buy?
To tell you the truth there's only one car I really really want and that's a 2001 Dodge Viper ACR in deep sapphire blue with silver stripes.
Like Larry's car and I wouldn't change a thing. |
