    Which car for $100k

    If you had $100k to spend and were looking for a sports car or GT car that could do 0-60 in less than 4.5 seconds, but could also be used most days to drive to the office and back which one would you choose.

    Would be better if car was pre-owned less than 1yr with under 10k miles on it...

    I like the Bentley Continental GT however you would be pushed to get even a 2008 for $100k....

    Nissan GTR. Fast, not your everyday car, and practical.

        not so sure the Bentley gt will do 0-60 in under 4.5. the reviews I read placed the car in the 'dog' category for 'zippieness' I would get a corvette zo6 or the new 'caddilac cts coupe V'

            The Bentley is a bit common. See about 4 EVERY time I go out even for a short drive.

            GTR

            AM V8 Vantage - 2 years old maybe

              I have a 2004 Mustang Cobra, 0-60 in 4.1 seconds stock, which sold for about $40k or $45k new. However, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. My car is a beast, and as a daily driver it's a horrible car.

              Worry less about speed and get a nice car. Someone will always have a faster car than you, always. And at a certain point fast acceleration is over rated - great, you can to the next stoplight and slam on you breaks five seconds faster than a mini van. Big deal.

                        Bentleys are all over the place now. I'd go for something a little more exotic

                                I would say the car brands I hate the most and would never consider buying are :

                                Ford
                                GM ( pontiac, chevy etc.)

                                I also have a real hatred of Mustang's, Nissan 350z, infiniti g35/37 35's & anything with an exhaust the size of a trash can...
                                Not saying they are bad cars in respect of the Nissan ( the mustang is a p.o.s.) but the people that drive them a ass holes.

                                    BMW M6. Nuff said. You could virtually get a new one for $100k.

                                            2009 997 turbo less than a year old is a great car and can be had for around $100k
                                            I believe it has the dual clutch box which is great.

                                                It would be out of warranty for that money and from experience repair bills at Porsche are expensive. Good thing is there is not much to go wrong on them and when they are under warranty they don't squabble over anything and you get treated well.

                                                          My wife has one. It's pretty rough. But I don't know how the 911 Rides. That's a sweet ride too.

                                                                I'll agree with that. In the 3 1/2 years I had my porsche it never went wrong. The only problem I had was the finish on the gear box surround kept wearing off. I found out it was my fault for hanging an air freshener from it. They replaced it both times under warranty.

                                                                In contrast all 3 of the BMW's I have owned have always had little issues. On my my current 535 the passenger side seat belt warning light keeps coming on even when no passenger is in the car, plus the drivers side mirror is out of alignment slightly. Both these will be fixed under the factory warranty when I take it in to get the brakes replaced ( under free maintenance program) later this month.

                                                                Also the rear tires only last 18 months before they are worn out. Does not matter how you drive as you cannot rotate them as the car has a staggered setup you can only expect to get 20k miles on the rears. Fronts should be good for 35-40k miles though...

On my my current 535 the passenger side seat belt warning light keeps coming on even when no passenger is in the car, plus the drivers side mirror is out of alignment slightly. Both these will be fixed under the factory warranty when I take it in to get the brakes replaced ( under free maintenance program) later this month.

                                                                  Also the rear tires only last 18 months before they are worn out. Does not matter how you drive as you cannot rotate them as the car has a staggered setup you can only expect to get 20k miles on the rears. Fronts should be good for 35-40k miles though...
                                                                  hehe - my rear tires usually last for 2 seasons, i only drive the car between March and November. Maybe 15k miles max. in that timeframe - and every time $650 to replace them.
                                                                  front tires seem to last forever, i replace them every 5 years.
                                                                  but i love to go fast and since i am actually allowed to on the german autobahn, i can't resist

And at a certain point fast acceleration is over rated - great, you can to the next stoplight and slam on you breaks five seconds faster than a mini van. Big deal.

                                                                                          Like the rest of the world, it's always better to want, then to have.
