Hey.
As the subject of this topic is saying, i'm kinda wondering on what car you would buy if you have had 100k dollars to spend on one?
I'm wondering because i would love to see what kind of cars you would choose so i can get some ideas later on what car i can buy . I'm still far away from spending that much on a car, but i will eventually get there i hope.
In my case, i would gladly spend 80-85k dollars on this car: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8VFud7Y7s4. Here is another video showing the car: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3T4xBJsWXBg
The reason i would go for that car is nothing more than driving experience and looks. You can get that car registered normally for roads and you can also use it on a track and have tons of fun with it.
And lastly, it looks awesome. If you comes driving with that car in the middle of the city or something, alot of peoples will turn their heads around to look at it. Not only that, but you can get a roof over the windscreen, side windows and the doors. Here you can see a picture of that: http://motocrossactionmag.com/Uploads/Public/Images/.....AUG%2014/xbow_gt_xtop.jpg
You can also get a 'Soft-Top (GÇ£X-TOPGÇ¥)' to the car aswell if you want to have some baggage with you. Here you can see how the 'Soft-Top (GÇ£X-TOPGÇ¥)' looks like: https://laluxore.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/31.jpg
Pretty cool stuffs eh?

I'd buy 100 1996 Tauruses and drive around in those until I've totaled them all.

I would engineer and build a new motorcycle. Likely a softail bobber. Another for my garage 
...unless if I could spend the money on something else like quad bikes to get out to remote hunting and fishing cabins of course $100k I could buy a lot of such properties and practically have a different cabin location each month.
I'm in it for the money

Here is another video showing the car: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3T4xBJsWXBgThe car is called 'KTM X-Bow GT'. You can find more info about it here: http://www.ktm.com/x-bow/x-bow-gt/. The reason i would go for that car is nothing more than driving experience and looks. You can get that car registered normally for roads (aka road legal) and you can also use it on a track and have tons of fun with it there. And lastly, it looks awesome.

Here you can see how the 'Soft-Top (GÇ£X-TOPGÇ¥)' looks like: https://laluxore.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/31.jpgHere are some pictures of the car: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Pretty cool stuffs eh? But, you have to take some tradeoffs with the car. 1. No stereo in the car. 2. Not speed bump friendly. 3. Kinda noisy inside the car. 4. Limited space for baggage and 5. It's expensive. EDIT: And just to get the feeling of how the driving will looks like in the car, this is as close as it will look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITU02fcyqxg. This is from the 'R' version. The only difference here is that you have the windscreen where you don't have to use the helmet and stuffs on the GT version.
Doh. When you're old enough to pay that car, you already will have moved on to liking safer/comfier wheeled penises...
73% of EVE characters stay in high security space. 62% of EVE subscribers barely PvP. 40% of all new accounts just "level up their Ravens". Probably that's why PvE content in EVE Online is sub-par and CCP is head over heels for PvP...

If I had 100k $ I wouldn't spend them on a car, because I already have a BMW, buut if I am forced to, then Mercedes G63 AMG is the one, although I am not sure they'll be enough...You can go almost everywhere and you have to drop it of a cliff to break it, not to mention that sound  |

Zooooooooooooooooom!!! Audi R8 is an awesome car.
Now i'm not sure if you know who this is, but if you have been following a YouTube channel called 'Supercars of London', then you would see alot of videos around the Audi R8 he had earlier. Even the guy who is calling himself for 'Shmee150' did have an Audi R8 earlier aswell.
Both of those are from England. But i have had the pleasure of talking with 'Tim Burton' himself when he was in Oslo that does have the Shmee150 channel. He was in Oslo when the Gumball 3000 race earlier started in Stockholm. Here you can even see my own video from that event in Oslo. The video is almost 1 hour long and it's filmed in 4k resolution to :-).

Aiming to low. The NSW Police wins.
NSW Police now have a $450,000 McLaren 650s
It's a promotional tool,..."help raise money for the families of fallen police and comes at no cost to tax payers." They're really going do some good fund raising when they finally purchase that Gulfstream G650 jet.

Tesla Model S. But I don't really drive much, so I'd rather buy a practical $20k car when my existing ones dies and invest the remaining 80k.
Or buy an '87 Toyota Celica, and have everything but the outer shell replaced with updated stuff. Then give it to my mom, since I wrecked hers when I was in high school. |

dunno where you live rain but here in the UK owning your own home is a very valuable commodity (too many people and not enough houses or the space to build them) ... since ive been in my house its almost doubled in value ...so to actually spend 100K on a car that will depreciate as soon as it leaves the forcourte is abosloute madness
unless of course its a very rare car that will increase in value ...but you wont be able to get one for a 100K |

As for the house ownership thing in Britain ... it was a con. When you are old and need care and support the state won't need to provide it because you can sell your home to fund your care needs
which means you won't have a legacy to leave for your kids which is how Thatcher initially promoted the concept

One of the GT86/BRZ/FRS variants.
The ~70k excess remaining? Some subtle engine tuning with just a little bit of boost (+100?+75?), accessories, and creature comforts. In dark blue, with a soft yellow/beige/black interior. All logo's and branding badges completely removed. Nothing shiny or eye catching in terms of accents anywhere including on things like aftermarket calipers or exhaust pipes n' such. |

I wouldn't spend 100 grand on a car, I've driven and worked on many that cost that much, and more, and tbh there's no way in hell I'd own one.
I'd import something from a warm climate, preferably Japanese or European that was produced between 1960 and 1985, that will appreciate in value and that I can fix when it breaks, the rest would get used to pay off a goodly chunk of the mortgage.

If it had to be a new car & I had to spend all/most....
- Jaguar F-Type R coupe or - Ford Mustang GT350R or -Porsche Cayman GT4
If I could spend part on a new car & spend the rest on an existing...
- Ford Focus RS - Then spend the rest restoring/modifying my Escort RS (cause 400hp & a sequential gearbox sound like a solid plan....right?)  |

Had this (2013, fully loaded including ceramics): https://www.google.com/search?q=audi+rs5&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari and loved it for 2 great years.
Would buy this next: https://www.google.com/search?q=jaguar+ftypevr&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari#hl=en-us&q=jaguar+f-type+r - IMHO the best looking coupe mass-produced in the world today |

Personally a fan of the Quatroporte. Wtih chauffeur, since I don't like driving. 
Jaguar would be next, though, and they would fit better in the 100K budget (mass production haves its advantages vs handcrafting).
