    Nothing is more fun to drive on a long road trip than Corvette Z06. Call me lame but it's my favorite non-supercar. At least test drive one, they're so comfortable to drive at high speeds.

          This thing will smoke a Porshe Any day of the week and its a great sleeper
          A Skyline is definitely not a sleeper car.

            I would hold off on the E46 M3 since the new E90 3-series should be out by the end of next year with the new M3 to follow within 1.5-2years after that, not worth it to drop all of that cash and have a dated car.

            I would say though you should save up a bit more and get the new E60 M5. I think it will be more in the 90K price range with a couple of options, but it should be a very nice ride, plenty of room, good as a daily driver, and definitely will have the power to eat up the road when necessary.

            Take Luck!

                    In the UK? You have to go for The M3. Its a no brainer.

                    And $80K is about £43,500 so you have slightly more to spend.

                    If I were to spend that amount on a new car it would DEFO be the M3. Its got class, style and its bad ass.

                    If its not your kinda car, then I'm sure you can pick up a Porsche for this price

                      You wont see the E90 M3 for a good 2 -2 1/2 years. By that time you will be about ready to trade in for something new anyways.

                      I am also willing to bet that you wont get a new M5 for under 100K atleast not for a good while.

                          So True.

                          0-60mph in 3.4 seconds. That would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!

                              Smokes is a big word. It would beat it depending on the driver. But not any porsche either lol.

                              E55 would smoke those, but probably a bit pricier than 80k

                                  E55
                                  ------
                                  Curb Weight: 4087lbs
                                  HP: 469
                                  0-60 : 5.06

                                  Skyline R-34
                                  -----------------
                                  Curb Weight: 3395 (692lbs lighter)
                                  HP: 276
                                  0-60: 5.1

                                  It would be a drivers race, the advantage being to the guy in the Skyline. If he knows how to launch that car, he'll win.

                                    2004 Acura/Honda NSX

                                    The HP is a little weak for the price, but will smoke any car through a corner....




                                    a lot of people will say viper or corvette, but those need importing right?
                                    I really like this car too.
