What would you buy with $100,000USD to spend!!!!!

Here's the catch!!!!

You have to buy 2 cars, one for winter/daily driver and one sportscar/toy.

Cars can be used or new.

Soon. I am still writing all of the RX-8 content. I needed to wait until warm weather to get new pics and data.

Meh. I really don't need $100k to be happy. Plus I don't think I'd be able to handle having TWO cars that make me obsess over every scratch, it's nice having a car you can park anywhere and not freak out about it.

Can you really get SVXs for that cheap? There's a guy in my area with a mint one that has a 6 speed swapped into it as well as some other mods., it's a pretty hot car.

I guess I'll chime in with my picks...

Used C5 Z06
05 STi

lots of money for mods

Lots of money left over for mods :D

I'd also probably go back and forth a million times between the Z06, an Elise, and a 993 Turbo + a beater Subaru instead of the STi.
