That's my second choice.

I've looked into the cost of an R8, average yearly maintenance costs from what I've seen owners post is in the 2500/yr range.

That's not bad for something with Lambo guts.

This is actually not a bad way to go. Maybe not this extreme, but one must remember, if you're going to buy an expensive car you also must have the scratch to maintain it.

LOL!

I'd have this:



It's not the fastest, but in supercar terms, it's pretty damn practical. Plus, I'm a fucking sucker for wagons/hatchbacks.

Im currently shopping for a wagon for my daily drive, and that thing would be a nice fit.

Im going to win 295 million saturday so I figure I pick up one monday

I've got a friend with a V8 Vantage, and it is nice. Feels like it's milled out of one giant piece of metal, and you are hard pressed to find a bit of plastic in/on it. Everything is either metal or leather.

The reflection?

Fox, $5000 in mods, and blow the rest on cocaine and hookers. Did you forget what board you were on?

ZR1 and a lake house

Only supercar I've liked in recent years is the GT and that's just for the lack of refinement like stated above.

Now with that amount of money to blow a 32 Ford with an original SOHC 427, but a 5.4 DOHC with stack style fuel injection.

Aston's are just classy looking cars. I'm not sure you could go wrong with one.

I really want to build a Factory Five '33 coupe when I get out of school. The one in Hot-Rod a few months back that Air Ride/Ridetech built made my brain itch.

TT Ford GT
Ultima GTR (close 2nd)
Audi R8 v10, sent to UR (3rd)

Even better all of the above.


And if the OP wasn't so stingy, and keeping it under $300k, it would still a TT S7.

^^^ Eh, I'd like it a lot more without that hideous Nike swoosh on the rear fender.

The reflection?

There ain't nothing wrong with that...
