Is that a Bugatti Veyron?

Ford Mustang Shelby GT500.

Honda NSX? Unsure if they fit your age category though.

Hand on heart a 997 turbo or an AM is not something i'd want to be running with finance hanging over me.

Sagaris I like, zero depreciation more or less, but can it be used as an everyday car or would it be a pain in the ass?

Housey is probably your best bet on here... or the Tuscan owner? Same basic chassis and internals. (Sagaris has a wider track)

Nice Christmas bonus from Mr. Proudfoot then

.

I'd be looking no further than Aston Martin. However...20k finance at 450 per month must be over a hefty term. 5 years?

BIGWEB · 22 Dec 2010 at 19:24

Gotta be a 997 turbo at this money. Mark will say the bills it can produce are epic but almost anything you buy at this price can produce bills like this.

Do it! They will be very close to 45k in 6 months and if you buy right you wont lose much on it at all.

I dont know what you earn, i dont want to guess but lets take a 997 turbo, warranty aside brakes 2k, tyres 1200 quid, suspension refresh 5k ,if you havent got an OPC warranty and you have a dispute with warrant direct lets say (who are now useless for Porsche by the way disputing claims left right and centre) any problem you have counts in the thousands not the hundreds.

Why lay yourself open to that, im gonna shut up now cos i dont want to sound like an arse.

Would have to be a GT-R for me, being from the playstation generation the R34 has been my dream car for ages and the R35 is bloody stonking. Has that X factor imo. Z06 would be a close second though.

Porsche Carrera S.

Obviously can be had cheaper but just an example

Participant · 22 Dec 2010 at 19:28

Aston Martin as a brand has far more sex appeal than Porsche. You didn't list this as a factor, but if you're a single man, buy AM over Porsche.

And why on earth would you buy another rice-mobile at this sort of money.
