Keep it reasonable say 75k or less. Although that seems excessive depending where you're at in life and what you might have to sell/trade that's not too out of line. From my preliminary research the following vehicles would fall in that price range.

All new vehicles:

2016 C7 Vette--all the performance bits w/o a super fussied up interior
2016 Ford GT350 and 350R
2016 Challenger/Charger SRT8...Hellcat might be in that range but doubtful
2015 Camaro LZ1 or Z28...no word yet on the 2016 versions of these two
2016 M3/M4 with the performace bits
2016 Mercedes C AMG S with most of the performace bits

If you are gonna be in it daily then M3 or M5 at that price point no question.

Maybe an Audi S

Tesla 70D is the best car available at that price, IMO.

Uhhhhhh...........so we'll slot you in as a transgender? Cause that's not a car.

This is a car. Numbers matching, 53k.

I have a 2001 330i that that I bought when my 2000 328ci was lost in a flood. My next car will probably be a used 5-series.

I agree with Benny.

Chargers, Camaros and Mustangs appear to be driven solely by cunts, so I'd avoid those.

If I never needed to carry more than one passenger, for $70k I'd go Porsche Cayman every day. Best looking sports car on the market, plenty fast, you don't look quite as much like a walking Cialis ad. Unless you live next to Laguna Seca or a drag strip, how often do you really get to use a C7 or Hellcat's real power?

Have you looked at a prius?

Close family member is German Auto mechanic..been working on them since the 70's. Anymore you don;t get to "own" new cars. In 20 years the notion will be as anachronistic as AM radio and the GOP.

In my mind (and having only driven a couple of them) the e28 is the best m5 of all time. The E39 is not far off....but the 28 was the ultimate saloon sleeper.

This is the spitting image of my first p.o.v.

A dope dealer up the street had one of these back in the day:

Both of those are beautiful.

and the Tesla is ugly as fuck.

Seriously...homely, no sound, no vibration, no love. electric cars are disgusting.

One gear. So weird to really get down on the pedal in one...

The 700L's are niiiiiiiiiice if you are a chauffeur type...

True......that E32 750il is the tits to drive long distance.

Best looking BMWs:
E34
E30
2002
E28
Z3/M Coupe - the regular Z looked like the car an old woman buys with her second divorce settlement but when you make it into a shooting brake, fuck yeah

Current 2 series isn't offensive to look at but it's got too much drop at the nose, Audi is beating the shit out of the other Germans in the looks department.

Not all swoopy and shit - it's tight and aggressive (like a woman whose husband stopped looking at her after the first kid so she joined a Crossfit box and had a threesome with her coaches).

To me Audi always looks like hotshit out of the plant but then they age terribly. There's not a single Audi that has made it 10 years without looking dated as fuck to me..except this one.

Looks like a ride the ambiguously gay duo would drive. NTTAWWT.

I like smaller cars, so the BMW M235 with a six speed manual would be my car. Under 5 to 60. Under $50k including a few options. Probably more of an actual sports car than any Porsche currently on the market with the exception of the Cayman.

I work on Mercs for a living, and I've driven damn near every AMG there is, including the S65 twin turbo V12's, and they've never felt "sporty" to me the way Bimmers do. Mercs are interstate destroyers. BMW's are mountain road weapons.

My budget is a little more sedate at ~$30k. We're going to go with either a VW GTI or the new MX-5 once I can test drive one. I've always liked quick and agile over brutishly high horsepower. I wish Alfa made the 4C with a real transmission.

Every day drive, a 335. Preferably manual transmission, if we are talking a reasonable cost to own BMW.

Houston is full of cunt drivers in expensive cars. Full. I talked the guy at the Jaguar dealer to let me take a manual F type out for a spin, and it was nice, but it didn't impress me the way the 335 did.

All I want is another 2003 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab 4x4. I had to sell my last one several years ago when my wife quit work and went to nursing school. Plan on getting another one in the next couple of months. It's all I want and all I need.

I probably won't get a camper shell like the one below, but I love this generation Tacoma.
