$48,000 to spend on car

[B00SHdog]

If you had that much to spend on a car which one wolud you get?? new or used......

[hjr]

i think i would look for a used STi. or get a bmw 540i just cause personally they appeal to me.

[Lennon]

You have too much money to spend on a car.

IF you don't own a home, go get one, if you do, go get another.

[sabad66]

If I had 48 grand I would buy a 2001 Prelude and build it up for insane boost.

[xkon]

TL... great car for the $$

[/////AMG]

Spend most of it, then save the rest. $48,000 is a shit load. Might aswell save up for a realistic dream car or something.

[crx62]

if i had 48 G's i would get a last gen supra or BMW M3 and build it to hell

ahhh, my bad... :banghead: :tongue:

[max_boost]

If you have a secured job and make decent coin, I would go for the STi. If you are just barely getting by and somehow landed on a $48K fortune, I would invest it. :thumbsup:

[iceburns288]

Superformance Cobra body... with a Rousch 427 and a Vortech supercharger...:drool: 800HP! 800HP! And maybe I'd lighten it up for a little journey to the moon or so.:D

[dkny_stylez]

g35 coupe

[FiveFreshFish]

E36 M3 sedan. Lots of fun and practical too! Leaves you lots leftover from your $48,000 to spend or invest.

[C4S]

$48K .. so , that is around $43K plus taxes, fee, pro-pack etc ..

um .. not much to pick .. RX-8 ? I think they are $41K plus tax for fully loaded one.

Or an A4 1.8 loaded, BMW 325i with 1 or 2 extra options .. Acura TL ..

If u can spend a bit more, then G35 coupe, a loaded BMW 325i ... or a bisic 325 Ci coupe ..

by the way, are we talking New cars ? or used ? Sedan ?

If for used sports car, get a 99-00 Boxster or 99-00 BMW M Roadster.
You can also get a 91-92 Porsche 911 964 as well for mid$40K
or a used STi, one from dealer for $43K plus tax.

A low KM E36 M3, there is actually a 1994 Euro M3 ( #40 of 45 ) for sale in Edmonton, with only 50K, believe or not, for only $40K plus taxes ! that car is as brand new, I know the owner, and know how he has kept the car ! 1 owner car ! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[k_dawg]

BMW M3:drool:

Supra

STI

[Bruce Chan]

if i have $48,000 will get used car and mod. it.
just for example:

1. normal used car $5,000 (FR) 93 240sx nissan 1+2=10,000
2. install great suspension $5,000 (Tein)

3. install new engine $5,000 (SR20DET) 3+4=7,000
4. big intercooler $ 2,000

5.sound system $2,000 5+6=3,000
6.exhust $1,000

7.4 new wheels & tire $1,500 16inch 7,8,9=$3,100
8.4wheels knock $100
9. repaint any clolour (optional) $1,500

10. 4 new comfortable sits. (as u like option)$1,500

total=$24,600


11. used car insurance is cheaper - depend ur record (for me)
$ 2,400per year

12. high quality gas $2400per year

u can free to drive more than around 3 years for
using the left $23,400 (not included speeding ticket)

if anyone steal ur car , u still have $23,400 to buy another one.
but usually new car will have more chance to get steal from thief.

1997-98 E36 M3 and S/C that ma-fugga!!

I love all these personal financial planners giving you investment advice LOL...if he WANTS to spend 48K cash on a car, who cares?? There are many people on here with more expensive cars than that! :D

[statick]

if ur goin for luxury, i'd say get BMW 540i or MB E320 4matic, thats a couple years old......if ur goin for performance get an S14 and tune the sht outta it, turbo engine swap, ECU, bolt ons, whatever u can do......or u could hold on for a bit , wait for an R32 GTR, and get that.

if ur lookin for brand new luxury , BMW 3-series/MB C-class......
and if ur goin for brand new performance, S2000 is wicked...RX8/RSX-S/G35coupe are also pretty decent.

good luck with car search :thumbsup:

haha no doubt. I lived at home and drove a $70k benz, you only live once. I have a house now, and a lot less money for toys. I wish I still lived at home.

[bighead2267]
