Don't call me crazy but after driving this Q8 loaner for a week, I kinda like it. I want to get one loaded in black and call it a day. Shit is slow and there aren't much cubby rooms but I like the styling and room in the back seat. I'm sure there are better buys but for me, it's a good combination of practically, looks and tech.

The car I'd buy and keep forever under $100k would be a R34 GTR. They're floating around in the high 70k-80k range for a good condition one used. Import it, legalize it, probably mod it lightly and just enjoy it. I've driven R32 GTRs before and they're great fun on track and on the street. I can imagine the R34 being much more refined but still joyful.

IMHO i don't see a reason the turbos will be climbing in value.

1) They are heavy (in comparison to other 911 variants)
2) Porsche are focusing on turbo cars now so i do not see the appeal of a turbo even if it is supposed to be a special model.
3) Metzger engine might be nice but the turbo kills the noise anyway

However, a 997 GT3 on the other hand, the noise, the weight, unfiltered driving sensations

❓❓❓
You must not follow P cars much, turbos, as in pre-991 days when a Turbo was the monster model and not a default engine due to modern emission nagss, those Turbos and in very high demand and very very few are sub 100K and are increasing in value by the days.

I'm currently obsessing over the Porsche GT4..... I think it's the perfect blend of power and balance along with being just rare enough to hold its value.

They are starting to fall under $100K for some very nice examples with low miles.

So what is the ONE car Under $100K do you want in your garage asap?





Just ONE? My M3 CS is $107k, but I paid much less that that, so I guess you could say it's the car I chose, but.... I'm only leasing it. If I want a car to OWN and KEEP I'd have to go with the GT4 as well!!! What a stunning car, and what a pleasure to drive. I've actually been thinking of replacing my M3 CS with a used 981 Cayman S, so the GT4 is a no-brainer if my budget was $100k. Just look at it, it's stunning. It might not have an insane amount of power, but I think the form factor is perfect. Who needs 600hp that you can't really use anyway?

I'm rather intrigued by the Porsche Taycan at the moment. Supposed to start around $80k but not for sale yet.

As for current production, the Cayman GT4 is beautiful.

hah - very true.

In that case I'd probably say Volvo's 2020 Polestar models are looking pretty incredible from an exterior styling standpoint. Though when I sat in the new S60 a few weeks back I wasn't too crazy about the seats, headunit or general HMI.

My next nice car will be a Nissan GTR for fun...or dailying. All business...I love em.
In the meantime I fully intend to make my farm a junk yard full of cheap tuned imports and Jeeps.
...I need some Tokyo drift in my life.
The E93 is supposed to be my reliable, safe, summer car.

GT-Rs are definitely something else. One of the first reasonably attainable cars (in modern history) to completely redefine what fast was.

They're also pretty easy to live with, all things considered. Service cost is pretty steep though...

I already have a daily driver, so the car I'd most want to add to my stable for around $100k is the Porsche Boxster Spyder. Yes I would take it over a GT4.
