DCX - Dodge Charger R/T
European - Used 2004 Jaguar Vanden Plas

[Northstar]

GM - Corvette Ford - Mustang GT Chrysler - 300 SRT8 Euro - BMW 330i Asian - Lexus GS300

[Paolino]

Hmm... GM: Buick Lucerne CXS (or CXL V8 - haven't decided which yet only cause I like a slightly floaty ride) Ford: Lincoln Town Car (and MY GOD, they actually gave it a tachometer!) Chrysler: Jeep Grand Cherokee w/ 5.7Hemi Euro: BMW 330i Asian: Lexus GS300 Now, if I had to pick only one as my one and only vehicle... hmmm.. difficult--it's a toss betwen the Town Car or the BMW 330i. Very different cars--would love both for different reasons.

[chris]

GM - Vette. come on, if you have $50k to spend you're silly not to. Ford - nothing Chrysler- nothing Euro - BMW Z4 Asian - Honda S-2000. out of all of those, I'd make the tough decision to pick the S-2000 over the 'Vette.

[Cremazie]

What GM? Cadillac CTS What Ford? F-150 quad cab What Chrysler? Dodge Charger What Euro? BMW 330 What Asian? Lexus IS 350 All of the above, would be the CTS... love it!

[Sixty8panther]

GM - CTS-V: probably in stealth gray, maybe black raven Ford - Loaded up Mustang GT ragtop in yellow Chrysler - Charger SRT in black and black ONLY! Euro - BMW M3 in blue or yellow Asian - I'm assuming you meant new but I'll go with the last gen. Skyline GTR

Not that I can afford a $50K car now or anything... GM - Pontiac GTO Ford - Ford Fusion SEL DCX - Mercedes SLK350 Euro - MINI Cooper S Asian - Honda Civic Si

[ToniCipriani]

GM - Pontiac G6 :wub: Ford - Ford Fusion / Mercury Milan DCX - Chrysler 300 Euro - Opel Vectra / Saab 9-3 / Alfa Romeo 156 Asian - Mazda 6 Sport As you can see I'm just into midside sporty-ish sedans... (Well except for the 300) Edited November 27, 2005 by ToniCipriani

[ocnblu]

This will vary daily, but for now:

GM: Silverado LT1 regular cab shortbed Z71 4X4 in dark blue, with powertrain enhancements, and nice rims with bigger than stock tires.

Ford: Mustang GT, Legend Lime/black leather, spoiler delete, 5 speed, loaded.

Chrysler: 300 SRT8 in silver.

Euro: new style GTI in bright blue/black leather with a true manual trans, loaded.

Asian: Nissan 350Z Track Edition, bright blue/black leather. Edited November 28, 2005 by ocnblu

[avro206]

What GM? GTO baby! We Canadiand are robbed as we don't get it. If it was an SUV then a Trailblazer SS. If I needed 4 doors--a CTS-V What Ford? umm....Ford has nothing I would buy. Don't like their trucks and the cars are really tame. What Chrysler? SRT-8 for a car and a SRT-10 Qaud cab for a truck What Euro? Well BMWs got ugly so thats out. Used to like A4s but they got ugly too :( I have no idea! What Asian? Mazda Speed 6 I guess. Its a pretty neat car. Mazda is about the sportiest of the Asian car makers. Honda and Toyota are pretty boring. I need excitement and power!! :P

[Variance]

GM: 2006 Pontiac GTO (black or midnight blue on red or black) Ford: Lincoln Zephyr (black/black) Chrysler: Chrysler SRT-8 (black/black) Euro: BMW 540i (E39) Asian: Infiniti M45 Sport

My one and only would be a loaded CTS and I'd forget about the list.

[z28luvr01]

[bowtie_dude]

GM: CTS-V Ford: *scratches head* King Ranch F-150 Chrysler: Grand Cherokee SRT-8 Euro: M3 Asian: G35 Coupe

[HarleyEarl]

Here are my choices for a car under 50 grand:

GM: Corvette

Ford: Mustang GT Convertible

Chrysler: SRT-8

Euro: BMW M3

Asian: Nissan 350Z

Number one choice: Corvette - it's a no-brainer

[NOS2006]

GM? '06 GTO. Black to make the taillights match. Ford? Mustang GT. Everything else bores me. Chrysler? Charger SRT-8. Black only. Euro? G35 Coupe 6 Speed Asian? 350Z Edited November 28, 2005 by NOS2006

[capriceman]

GM-Pontiac GP GXP FORD- A A a a a........ None DCX-300M Euro-Koiensegg (lol) Boxster Asia-Subaru WRX STI Australia-Holden Caprice (NO suprise there) Favorite the GP then close 2nd would be the WRX

[bobo]

Corvette Explorer Sport Trac Ram Quad Cab 330i IS350 The IS350 I'd have as the solo vehicle.

[Satty]

GM: Uh.....an SRX would be pretty nice Ford: I really like the Fusion and 500, so I think I'd wait for the 500 to get a Fusion-like face. Chrysler: Wow....um....Do they still make the Aries? No? Then I'll say Magnum. European: No second thought required, Mini Cooper Japanese: Honda Element

cant be both though one or the other

[NOS2006]

haha Infiniti builds the G35, not Nissan, bud.

[mute]

hah infiniti is the upscale division of nissan not seperate bud

[NOS2006]

Ohh, fudge it. Someone put the G in that category and the 350 in the other so I did too. So there. lol

[Satty]

A car built in Japan by a naturally Japanese company that is controlled by the French can probably claim dual-citizenship.

[avro206]

better yet....its 650lbs-ft of torque! :bowdown: Edited November 28, 2005 by avro206

[mute]

avro you quoted the wrong one lol

[razoredge]

C6 hmmm ? maybe some older obscure collectable Torino or Cyclone, how about a Montego ? Whats the upscale Crossfire Conv. ? na, make it the 06 Challenger some older less collectable Ferrari, Maserati, Alfa, Lancia or perhaps a Brit. MR2 spyder I dont have to answer the bonus.....do I ? :AH-HA_wink:

[balthazar]

I don't have definate, running favorites, but here some: GM: CTS Ford: F-150 FX4 Chrysler: Magnum R/T european: none japanese: none

[mjdecker]

GM: Since the CTS-V is $51k, I'll take an '06 GTO with dealership appearance package Ford: Fusion or Mustang GT Chrysler: I'm iwth razoredge on the '06 Challenger, If going with the current lineup, I'd have a tough time deciding between a SRT-8 Magnum or Charger Euro: Audi S4 sedan Japanese: Infiniti G35 Coupe Overall: Tough choice between the Audi S4 and GTO, but I'd choose the S4 in the end.

[Nick]

GM: C5 Z06 or C6 Ford: how about that shelby cobra? DCX: a used viper or maybe one of dcx's srt-8 passenger vehicle variants (charger, GC, 300c, magnum, etc...) Euro: e39 BMW M5 (preferrably 2003) Jap:350Z/G35 or possibly M45

[Sixty8panther]

Sly....how about this CTS:

[post="49306"][/post]

Pretty crazy but I like it. I forgot to mention that the CTS-V would be my obvious choice but I think that's obvious. I love the C6 Vette but I'm all about Cadillac these days and besides, the CTS-V is such a sleeper.

Still if the Z06 was not over the $50K budget I would have said that. :)

[Enzora]

GM: Corvette Ford: Mustang GT Chrysler: 300C Asian: G35 Coupe European: Do Europeans even know how to build a good sub-50K car anymore that isn't the 3-Series?

[91z4me]

CTS-V 500 300C If I had to Lexus IS Jaguar S type

[Teh Ricer Civic!]

GM: Corvette Ford: Mustang GT DCX: probably that challanger if they built it Asian: Used Acura NSX Euro: 3-series

[LosAngeles]

GM: GTO (naturally) Ford: Are those Saleen Stangs over $50K? But yeah, Ford iron, by and large, is pretty boring. Chrysler: Magnum SRT-8, in blue if they make it. Those seats and stock wheels are just beautiful. Euro: maybe a used CLS500 or something. European stuff got boring too. Asian: Infiniti M45. Too intriguing not to take a flier on. The winner of the "one and only" contest would be the Magnum. If it's THE only car, I could use the utility, because I may have kids one day. It's a guzzler though.

[sciguy_0504]

Damn this is hard... GM: GTO (Lucerne, CTS-V, SSR) Ford: Zephyr (Mustang GT) DCX: Charger SRT8 (300C) Euro: Passat 3.6L (Jaguar S-Type, Audi A4) Asian: IS350 (G35 coupe, GS300)

[Sixty8panther]

...enough said!

I don't have definate, running favorites, but here some:
GM: CTS
Ford: F-150 FX4

european: none
japanese: none

What did Europe or Japan ever do to you to not deserve capitalization? :P

[mustang84]

GM - Cadillac DTS Luxury III package Why?: I've always been a fan of DeVilles, and I like the DTS's new clean angular styling. Ford - Mustang GT Why?: Obviously I'm a Mustang fan...not much explanation needed. Chrysler - 300C SRT-8 Why?: Classic American styling with HEMI V8 power. Mafia meets muscle. Euro: BMW 330Ci Coupe Why?: Hasn't been Banglized...and it's a Bimmer...nuff said. Asian: Infiniti G35 Coupe Why?: One of the few Japanese coupes that doesn't look overtly Japanese. Infiniti has put out some good stuff lately.

What is an overly Japanese look?

[post="49981"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post]

Can't speak for M84 but IMO:

78% Borrowed, 20% blatantly ripped off & 2% ugly.

Like most of the Honda/Toyota/Mitsubishi lineup. :o
