Which car under $100k are you currently lusting for?

spazzyfry123 · 03-21-2019, 05:21 AM

I'd have to say either...

993 C2S
R8 V10 with the gate
997 GT3
E9 with some pimp updating

Some say $170

Although Hagerty says $70k ???

They have some nice pics of it on their site... looks sick!!!

Can’t wait to see it

It's hard to see how they can make it for $70K. The current C7 already approaching that. Some of the higher C7 models are quite a bit more than 70K.

997 Turbo 6mt! I want that yesterday... hopefully one in the next couple of years (70-80k budget).

Yes it is harder and harder. Hoping they don't climb up too much next couple years.

I made a post with the Acura NSX, E46 M3 CSL, or Mazda RX7 would be my lust for under 100K.

That’s where the problem lies my friend.
My wife is going to make me sleep in one of the cars!
1) I have an F15 x5 on a lease that will end in July.
2) I have a Golf sportwagon that will be paid off in 3 months.
3) She drives a leased Subaru Forestor.
4) I bought an E36 M3 recently. 5 months and that car will be paid off.
She is talking about returning the X5 and get a Tacoma truck.

Haha...I wouldn't worry too much about finding any car on Autotrader.com , it's the largest market place for used cars in the US with plenty of reputable dealers selling everything from Yugo's to Enzo's

If I was selling any car it's the first place I would place an ad.

Found this gem on here today just doing my daily dream searches

2006 32k miles , clean carfax , clean title , PPI at corsa motors, new clutch with extensive service history records.

$85K

If I was ready to pull a trigger on a $80-90k car this one would be near the top of the list if everything checked off.. it seems like this thing has just about bottomed out on depreciation where you could enjoy it for a few years and not lose a ton of money... .unfortunately it's black, which is beautiful but a PITA keeping it clean.

This is my second. Doing some basic maintenance plus upgrading suspension and brakes. Slapped on an S/M 50 manifold with 24lbs injectors, CAI and Shark timing. Bought it from BaT last September. Has 87k miles.

ASAP · 03-21-2019, 05:24 PM

maybe a new m5 could be had under 100 w discounts

Getting there. Waiting on a tool to replace the RTABs. Then will post photos.
The only legend I know of in Upland is Legend restaurant

slcook54 · 03-22-2019, 01:30 PM

I'll throw an F10 M5 into the mix. Keep the E92, turn it into a dedicated HPDE car. Pick-up an F10 M5, spend $1,500 on a tune and have a 700hp family hauler.

P100d Performance with full Auto-Pilot. $97.5K

Germanauto · 03-25-2019, 08:04 PM

Realistically, in about 3-4 years time, I think I could get into a CPO M2, M4, Boxster, or Giulia QF.

Not the wisest idea with my grad school loans, but I want to enjoy some of these cars while I'm still young.

I want either this or a 360 Modena at some point as a weekend car.

My issue with black is not it's penchant to show dirt, as I think it's an extremely gorgeous color (both my cars are black). But I, like most people, have just always dreamt of owning a red Ferrari.

These get more expensive in red.

I was so close to joining the Ferrari club, but doing so much more digging on actual cost to own an exotic has completely turned me off.
It costs about $5.70 per mile to own an exotic. That's just too much for me, plus the headaches of when something does happen (we all know it will

).

I've switched over to lusting after a 911. For the $100K price limit, I'd be looking for the newest 911 I could get with the lowest mileage with a manual transmission. It would be my new daily driver.

DanG · 03-26-2019, 03:27 PM

I have the car I was lusting after. I can’t think of anything I want more than my M Performance M2.
