    Default 3 Cars. $300k. What would you do?

    So I saw this as a posting on another forum and found it kindof fun so lets see what beyond thinks:

    You have $300k CAD. You need to buy 3 cars. Each car must be new.

    What would you buy and to what price would you spec them?

    Current for me:

    Porsche Macan S spec'd ~75 ( Just love these things for a DD )

    Mercedes-AMG C63-S Coupe Spec'ed ~110( )

    Buy the Wife a Corvette C7 Z06 Vert ~115 ( She likes verts and vette's )

    Oddly enough there are currently no BMW's that make the list



    Edit if it wasn't clear it doesn't matter if they are cars, trucks, SUVs etc.

    Just don't say you would buy a boat or a trailer or something haha.

    Did you marry a cougar?


    Anyhow, I'd have an AMG C63S (sedan), 911 turbo (very little money for options), and get the wife a civic off kijiji or something. She doesn't give a shit about cars haha.

    EDIT: OK fine, I can't read. I'd get the wife a $10k Nissan Micra

    Ha ha i was wondering when someone would do that. The original rules required each car to be over 50k but i decided that was a stupid rule as there are tones of good cars below that.

    Well she is older than me

    She actually likes C5's the most but that would be breaking my own rule.

    Besides who says i cant borrow it once I inevitably get bored of driving the SUV around and she takes it over

    Not sure completely on the RS, I may go STI or something but I just needed something around $50k I liked.
    That money will only get you the GT350 Cos, in Canada the 350R is $81k

    I'll play by your original rule (i.e. each car over $50K) cause otherwise it's too easy as I'd pick a Lambo for almost the entire amount and something shitty just for the sake of it.

    3;

    1. Aston Martin Vantage - 140K
    2. Maserati Ghibli AWD - 110K
    3. Audi Q5 - 50K


    I could probably make this combo with a 100 different cars but that's what comes to mind right off the bat. Example, could replace the AM with a 911, GTR or R8. Damn 300K isn't enough!

    E63 Wagon with a couple of goodies - $120.
    F150 King Ranch with some options, and a nice topper - $65k
    Either a new Odyssey or a Flex for the wife - $50-$60k.
    Would like a small sporty car too, let's say a Lexus IS-Fsport to round it out and break the rules.

    ^ Don't DB9's start upwards of 240k?

    That's Vantage territory.

    could be. I just googled it and that was the number that came up, and thinking on it, it could be USD...
