| Best car in price range (game)
Lets play, best/ most fun car in the price range that money can buy you, lets do 10-50k, so please give me ideas on what you think is the best bang for the buck for a car enthusiast.
Just trying to help a friends consider some fun cars at various price ranges and I want to know what everyone else thinks is a car worth test driving and checking out to compare.
10k - G35 Coupe
20k - 335i coupe
30k - STI
40k - mustang GT
50k - M3/ Final edition Evo X

There are a stupid number of variables involved here, including what the car will need to be used for, how reliable it needs to be, will the owner DIY at all, etc etc etc.

40k-50k - Corvette C6 Z06
7.0L V8 you can fix with a hammer 505hp
Wrecking many vehicles around tracks twice its price range.
Sometimes you can get lucky and find a low km one with a Superchager strapped to it like this that has to be running ~750hp. Change the oil on time and drive the piss out of it and it will never break. 2007 Chevrolet Corvette for $51,000 in SURREY | autoTRADER.ca |

The average car enthusiast is willing to spend a little more money for an exciting car, so ignore maintenance, DIY and all that fun stuff.

10-50k?
- Alpina B12 6.0
- Cadillac XLR-V
- Audi A8L W12
off the top of my head. The Caddy would probably be the most reliable, but who cares.

People are going to laugh their asses off at me when I fix this thing up:
Going to buy a spare Rampage soon and use this beater to haul parts to fix the other one up!!!
Oh man this is the type of car SAAB owners look at and go "WTF was he thinking?"

Either way, much better cars to pick from with the used market at that price point.
