If I could afford anything i'd keep what I have - 2008 BMW650i, just because I can afford it doesn't mean that I want to spend my money on it. Any car will be worth less in a few years, most investments will be worth more

If you can't afford a vauxhall astra then you should probably forget about driving for the time being
EDIT: Ah sorry, you said GSi... yeah them's well rapid init blud, gonna be expensive to run
Im only 24. I have a astra, not going to lie. Little things in life please me, why have a Porsche when you can tinker and do the car up to make it as fast as one. No self pride in buying a quick car stock. Just my opinion.

Koenigsegg CCXR running on Ethanol.
How can you say no to 1200bhp an RWD from the factory?
I think this is what the Grim Reaper hopes you say! lol
You could spend a million pounds on an Astra 'doing it up' and it'll never be as good as any Porsche.
Depends if he replaces each part, piece by piece with a porche one until there is no astra left.. only porche

35..... Oh hang on.
FF. Yep, no longer is my default choice a 355. It would be an FF!

Gazoo Racing GRMN GT-86 , totally in love with it after seeing it @ Goodwood.

Ah you already own an astra... gotcha.
I think Rybo is the only vauxhall driver/owner I have ever met who's admitted that buying one was a terrible, terrible **** up.
Most other I know of go out and buy another. A strange effect, really, considering how terrible they are.
Meanwhile, back on planet fun I may consider changing my choice to a Radical SR3.

Actually maybe a Jaguar XJ220S. Only 6 were made, so would be hard to find them i'm sure.

Oh god, why do you do this 
Toyota Chaser JZX100 or Supra, Ultima GTR, Ferrari 288 GTO, Skyline R32, Buick Regal GNX, '66 Pontiac GTO hardtop (dem stacked headlights), the list goes on....

I've currently got a Supercharged VXR8 and a modified RX7 which I plan on selling soon as I hardly drive it now I've got the VX
I want a Camaro with a kenne belle but needed a 4 door for work
anything else will have to wait a few years so will see what is available then but it would be rude not to have a corvette at some point, but then the GT-R is quite nice as well
not going to pay more than 100K for a car no matter what so that limits what's available slightly

Quite fancy a R8 as a daily with some nice mods maybe supercharge as well.
I think affordability has different levels i.e. are you a multi-millionaire who can buy literally any car and have no impact on your finances, or affordable as it in you could afford to buy it but wouldn't feel like you'd been ripped off or wasting money, and might limit what you can spend on other things a little.
In the second scenario I think the Nissan GT-R is hard to beat, not much in the price bracket to compete with it.
