So you just got 50 grand...

...and are in the market for a new car. You want a V8, 6spd, 2 door, rwd. Can live with four drs or awd. New would be nice but used will be just fine. You dont care so much about brand but want to stay away from japanese, the V8 should take care of that , so wshat would you choose, post both new and used choices....

E39 M5s are going for cheap.

Could probably get one for low 40s and have a little left over for mods.

First off it was 50k and Aston Martins DB7s are not under 50k.

And if you want to make a post with all the cars fine, but no one wants to see 43252345 posts by you.

Oh and no F355 is even CLOSE to 50k. I doubt any Testerossas are either.

He can work out a deal, maybe pay like 55K, I would get it. I'm trying to post cars that he would like.

If this is a serious question, post more restrictions.

Any Ferrari, Masserati, Aston Martin your gonna pay out the ass for maintnence and if you put mileage on them, they're not gonna be worth anything. Insurance will probably cost you a kidney or two.
And they all suck balls in the winter.

I thought you wanted 2 doors??? Sounds like a GTO to me...

For $50k you can have a fully built GTO easily running 11's with lots of gas money to spare.

But I like the V idea as well

The TSX I bought in January is $36,000, plus $8,000 in taxes, insurance is $2,000, fuel should be $2,000, and some nice alloy rims with snow tires at $2,000 bring this year's automotive expenditure for the new car to exaclty $50,000 Cdn.

I know you said no Japs, but the Infiniti M45 sport is really nice. RWD, V8, Fast, 4 door (Blah), and kinda nice looking too.
