Any car under $100,000?

What car would you choose if you had $100,000 to spend? Assuming it is still street legal. Personally I would choose a Skyline GTR, add a few mods then there you go. 1,000hp or more.

Do they have a AMG package? Maybe a TT Zo6 vette, hmmm. that would not stay on the road unless you had the turbos set to only kick in at 100mph. Who makes the vette like that? I 've heard of it, but i don't think it was the Callaway. Maybe it was a hennessy package. Hennessy viper. That would be nice too.

SkyLine... great choice ... it'll run you $89k and with $10k (which is A LOT of mods) it'll get you to 500hp. At which time with taxes, luxury tax, finance maybe? you are way over 100k

though there have been SkyLine's converted to left driver

Lingenfelter, and it's not even close to $100k.

The correct answer to the question is 911 Carrera C4 (new) or Ultima Can-Am (homebuilt) or 355 F1 coupe (used - starting to get below $100k) or late 60s 365GTB Daytona (classic) (buy a cut coupe to get it under $100k).

It would be more than a grand, I did everything I want and it came to $99,500 then it would costs prob $4k for rims and tires then 400 for tints, so I would be a little bit over, I think it wouldn't matter much hahahha
How great is that car, total class, and TONS of power,

I sure like the "fit" and comfort of the Mercedes -- just check out the seat adjustment controls -- no digging into crumbs and lint. Add some juice -- like the above-mentioned CLK55 and that sounds nice.

M5 with a few Dinan goodies would sure haul and handle, but I'd want some replacement seats.

Oh, to have 100K just laying around *and* only having to decide what 100K car to get -- sign me up!

Buy a CL-S drop in an engine, convert it to manual transmission and RWD and do whatever mods to get massive HP and Torque. Then u'll have a sleeper car.

Well, I'm already at $100k or so.....but If I was to have one car, it would be a CL500 Sport I think, similar to below (although its a CL55).
