What kind of car to get?
 

Ok, so I have a friend that is looking for a new nifty car.

Key notes:

He doesnt want a penis car, but he wants something unique and different.
BMW's aren't him
He doesn't fit in a porsche *he's 6'5*
He likes the idea of a classic car with modern parts.
He wants a car he can drive to LA often *hes in SD* and wont have lots of matenience issues.

He showed me the Zimmer...and I thought it was a bit too cheesy.

So...any ideas?

I"m gonna trade in for the honda civic hybrid

6'5" a yugo.

maserati quattroporte

Get a toyota, it won't break down.

Mini Cooper S

super hot car here in Montreal

and yes, he can probably fit in it.
my friend is 6'3 and fits in it just fine

g35.....

i think a pickup truck would be good for him

WOW that thing even has a spoiler :1orglaugh :thumbsup

maserati is a car most people do not drive.

we call that a wing ;)

While they are cool... a lot of people have them. The Infiniti M45 is a bad ass car. A little pricey, but not seen too often, looks good, and is reliable.

My friend has a Mini, cool car.

I drive a 99 SS Camaro, but I guess that's too small penis. ;(

Perhaps a Tornado? pretty rare, and pretty quick

Chrysler 300

Nice ones...any other ideas? Post pics!

A civic hybrid

if hes serious bout a classic car modern tech Morgans are still amazing

funny sidenote : they extend the car for tall ppl - true

If he wants to go for something unique that still has a very classic look he should look into TVRs:

Tell me more about this maserati...

Can you give us a price range?

I am 6'5" and I am very comfortable in my E-class Mercedes

theyre exclusive Italian cars. Used to be crap the 2xx series in the 90s. They produced amazing cars in the 60s won a lotta races with them.

Recently they got the 3200 (nylz has one) and some amazing convertables, also the new quattroporte (the only 4 door sportscar).

this is a 3200 with some extras, damn theyre expensive in the US :/

BTW those TVRs are amazing, but theyre not allowed in the US. Theyre too dangerous to drive in according US law - sadly.

What's a tornado? Trying to look it up :(

The new GTO is one that I like. They've made some changes since bringing it back...namely more power.

tell him to take bangbus

and if money is no object : http://www.autosalon-singen.de

vanessag made some pics for her site there *drool*

I'm sure there's a gay version of it where he could hitch a free ride if he doesn't mind cock in his ass...

TVRs are not being sold in the US? That brings a tear to my eye... :( They're terrific cars, everybody drives them around here.

This used to be my favorite car .... but I'd now have to say the 2006 Dodge Charger !!

Heh, money is no object, the main concerns are matenience and availibility in the US :)

When you factor everything in to your purchase. There is no better option than a Mercedes Benz. It's classy, it is refined, it is reliable, it is a good value if you buy it 12 months old with low miles. Buy it as a Starmark Certified car and get the 100,000 mile warranty.

Every other car is a novelty or a toy.

:thumbsup :thumbsup

The new Hybrids have some great technology to help conserve energy and protect the environment as well. We really all need to start looking at gas alternative transportation before we get blown awy from all these frickin hurricanes.

The polar caps are melting too.

maserati service is there. the car is too. if he wants something thats not over the top and still a sportscar - id check the 3200

Hummer all the way

I would have him check out a nice Durango or a Yukon.

Trucks are tall guy friendly :)

Thanks for the info, Captain Planet.

I have a good friend who has driven BMW and Mercedes for many years and recently he made the switch to Jaguar and says its as good as anything he has owned.He does sales nationwide out of Charlotte and takes the car to NewYork and Philly monthly.

Recommending Evo VIII's, TVR's, Dodge Charger's, Hummers, for a middle-age man that doesn't want a "flashy" car......shit


You want something easily available in the US, reliable like a rock here is a nice solution:

evo's aren't flashy. they are practical 4 door saloons. :winkwink:

Lexus h430

Not sure, but what about a Lexus GS for him?
