A Fusion.

New/Used? Way too many options here, my mind is blown.

mg23 · 07-29-2009, 10:25 PM

supra

Soon2bG60 · 07-29-2009, 10:27 PM

Lexus IS-F..

Or build one wild turbo monster.

keff108 · 07-29-2009, 10:27 PM

New/Used doesnt matter.

The supra is a thought but only if I can find a nice lower mileage TT 6speed with targa top.

evomike · 07-29-2009, 10:32 PM

Search hard for an e60 m5

Oakes · 07-29-2009, 10:32 PM

Low mileage TT 6 speed is a swing and a miss at 35k, those cars will sell at asking price, even now.

New:
Evo X
STi
S2000 CR
G37, non-S
370Z
135i with no options
Camaro SS
Mustang GT
Challenger

Used....
C5 corvette/Z06
350Z
E39 M5, hell even E60 M5
EVO IX/MR
STi (saw 2...TWO 06-07 STi's for sale with less thank 10k on them)
E46 M3
335i
996 Carrera/S
B6 S4/RS4
S2000
GT500

Excuse me while I let my mind cool down...

Isf starts at 63k. You can get a is 250 awd for around 37

Oakes · 07-29-2009, 10:44 PM

I for one, am against buying slow cars to build them, if you have the money, buy something faster out of the box and then mod THAT. That way you have a faster, fast car, not a faster, slow car. A boosted civic can beat an STi, but at the end of the day, it's still a civic and fwd. I don't mean to start a debate, I'm just saying if he has choices to utilize them wisely. I'd rather be driving an M3 around as opposed to an Si that is on every street corner.

I'm still thinking of more choices!

i agree haha but im stuck wit a si cant afford a m3 =[ ill have to deal wit what i gots

keff108 · 07-29-2009, 10:51 PM

I need RWD or I can live with AWD. FWD is just so fail its not even funny.

I still have no idea what car to get. Been really leaning towards an e46 M3 like a 05.

haha, well I'm not directing that comment at you. In the OP's case, if I was given that money, I'd buy something initially faster. If you're in Si budget range, than an Si is a good choice.

phate1229 · 07-29-2009, 11:00 PM

85 mr2
88 celica all-trac
98 gt4 front clip
95 gc8
wrecked sti
... yeah that's close to 35 grand

4DR_DB7 · 07-29-2009, 11:00 PM

is this a theoretical question, or do you actually have 35G cash to lay down??? if you already have a g35, i would just spend the cash on a turbo kit for that thing and be satisfied. Or are u starting a collection?

DelayedZ · 07-29-2009, 11:02 PM

Save the money? Keep your current car? Just throwing that out there. haha.

Oakes · 07-29-2009, 11:03 PM

Down payment on a house > another car. However, IIRC your G35 is auto? If so, you're gonna have to get something with a man tranny
