Which car do you like for $40-80k? [pics]
 

I am officially shopping for a new car... There are a few photos below of cars i`m considering and my price range is $40k - $80k.

I just want a car that is both comfortable and professional, for the wide variety of trips that I make all over california and for regular daily driving.

I`ve owned a bunch of cars, including the first CTS, the Corvette c5, BMW m3, Tahoe, & GrandPrix GTP.

I am considering the newer Cadillac CTS, newer m3, and possibly ordering the new c6 in May, but I may do this in addition to whatever I decide from this thread. There are a few others that i`ve not test driven yet, and some I have listed below.

If anyone has suggestions plases post pics and information!

Here are some pics, but I have to put them in two messages.

The Corvette... unless you also the option to get a E-Class.

Let me think... never mind... The Vette!

m3

Corvette c5 :thumbsup

Test drive them all, and then decide...

Andre

in order

1 amg
2 m3
3 cts

The red one. The rest will make you look like a corporate slave... well, except for the hummer, which will make you look like a 'tard.

M3 baby!

Honestly dude I would suggest the new Audi RS6, it's just a sick, sick car! 450 Hp fastest sedan in the world! Alternatively the new AMG is pretty sweet as well!

Why isn't there a Mercedes CLK 430 in there?

I don;t really like any of those cars

My personal choice would be a Nissan Skyline. Those cars fucking rock. Anyway, out of those cars, I'd choose a BMW or a Corvette.

I am a HUGE fan of BMW. So my opinion is biased.

Because, for some reason, I think a four door is better for what I need, even though its not the best looking to most people. But your car does look very good.

Lots of points for the m3. I was going to order it last year, but there was a 7 month wait, so I got the CTS. I really liked the one I drove at the dealer last year. [ a year old, I wanted it new ].

The BMW M3.

The quickest car (dunno about the Corvette), with style.

Of all those?

Definately the M3. Shitloads of performance and class, all in one package.

You want a sweet ride that's 4 doors and you won't see alot of people rolling then go for an Audi A8 they start at about $70k and it's fucking sweet as can be.

I can`t find the clk-430 on the mercedes website, assuming its off the market.

Here is the clk 500

Very cool.

I think I saw something like this on the freeway once, always wondered what it was, now I know. That gets another half a vote from me. Tough to decide.

I like the Skyline, but I'd like to drive around without being labeled as a rich ricer.

i'd take the m3

Oh man people just don't know about that A8 I'm telling you man it's fucking sweet. Go see one for youself, here's the site.

bmw m3 or the audi s4.

If I wanted an Audi I would want a Quatro TT.

Get a sportsbike

Already have one.

I would go with the Audi.
Have you concidered a BMW?

Corvette :2 cents:

Yeah, that new 6 litre should be pretty nifty. I am seriously considering it, in addition to some sort of a sedan.

If anyone wants a few pictures of that corvette you can download them here:

A friend sent me all of them, not a bad looking car, but like all others, it takes getting used to.

if i were a car guy, that thing would be my choice for sure. that is one phat ass ride.

is more up my alley, though in true silver.

Agreed, that mercedes looks damn good for a cruiser from here to LA or something.

The Land Rover is cool - but totally defeats my purposes.

For some reason I like this caddilac..

i would get the corvette

I've had my M3 for nearly a year now..and it still is exciting to drive.You can get a new one fully loaded for under 65k

I am surprised that so many people on this board agree.

Alot of people have mixed or jealous opinions of the car.

Yeah, they are a great value for the money, IMO.

I would go with an Audi A8.

get a chevy tahoe

then lift it, do some mods, and experiance the offroad

Been there.
