besides the upcomin shelby gt500 (which is the best looking sports car on the road atm) will be pushin 500hp for around 40kish, thats a thing of beauty.

spend 350 bucks and get the cold air kit for the infiniti G35 and it sounds like a ferrari with a throaty growl. Soon as my engine gets to 10k i'm getting it with a few other minor engine mods. My car is technically a ricer since is was produced by Nissan.

I'm looking at the M35 or a 530i or a A6 in the next few weeks. I've read Edmunds and CR and it's coming down to coin flips and test drives. What should I go with?

Im in love with the Audis these days. Go A6! Awesome car.

by **Arlos** » Fri Aug 05, 2005 1:52 pm

I love my Audi A4. I would LOVE to get a Audi R/S-6, their competition to the M5 series, it is awesome. On a more reasonable price level, the S4 is the own. Can you tell I'm a huge Audi fan?

If you're going to spend that much cash go get the 340 HP Infiniti M45.

That thing beat the 100k dollar BMW 745i in all the car magazines.

I've actually been thinking about that but I think that it's almost too much power for highway/city driving in south florida. Maybe if I moved into the midwest and had some open road to use it I would go with the V8.

i've been thinking of removing the muffler from my 93 cougar

I put a big Kanji sticker on my car's windshield. It gained 50 horsepower.

You would be surprised in a way. I test drove the M45 not to long ago... The horsepower rolls on very smoothly. Its an amazing car to drive on the highly.... but when you mash it the thing just flies.

I also love the stock wheels on the M45 and it has the best interior of any car I have ever been in. IMO if it had over 400 horses it would be a far superior car than the BMW 760Li which will run you about 160k. A loaded M45 can be had for around 52k.

For the money I don't think the Audi's, Beamers or Mercedez touch the Infiniti.

Mine is that red, but extended cab. If I could have any car, it would be:

0-60 in 3.2, competition with Ferrari's and other $$$ cars for the bargain price of $130,000 ish.

by **10sun** » Sat Aug 06, 2005 3:09 pm

Is that a 350?

Diesel?

And without the crazy two year waiting list, I would imagine.

by **Minrott** » Sun Aug 07, 2005 1:07 am

No, it's an F250, gas. I don't need the v10 or the diesel. The 5.4 gives me more than enough pulling power for what I tow, and 15mpg versus the 9 of the v10 or the expense of the diesel.

hahah 130k?! Get real.... thats called MSRP... That thing is going for over 250k here in california due to demand.

2005 M3 or. . .

M5

Either one of those would kick ass, but I think I would prefer a convertible M3. . .

BMW's look nice on the inside, but their dashboards still look very dated. Compare a BMW dash to an Audi, Mercedes, or Lexus and you'll see what I mean.

by **Samboa** » Sun Aug 07, 2005 1:00 pm

Girlfriend's family has a 2002 mercedes, and I still think the interior of the BMW's look fine compared to it.

Out of curiousity. . .anyone know of any reason why a person couldn't supercharge an M3?

hah! I said the same thing... The insides of the beamers look way fucking oldschool. Not to mention for the price they don't have nearly enough performance.

They are like the Air Jordan's of the automobile industry.... Double the price of the car just because it says BMW.

by **Samboa** » Sun Aug 07, 2005 5:01 pm

The M5 is quite possibly the fastest stock car under $80k. I'd call that good performance for a 4 door luxury sedan.

If I sold my kid I could buy a nice car.

Sure I could. Child costs $1000+ a month. I could lease an NSX for that much.
