Finding a Viper for under 50k is becoming difficult, but finding an SL55 for under 30k is totally possible (barring low mileage examples). The Viper, however, will want to kill you. The SL55 will keep you safe & comfortable - with balls. Elise: track car. Maserati: cheap until you need repairs or maintanance. C5 Vette: best performance for the dollar but, ho hum, yawn.

Some computer chip also went out and made it shut off in the middle of driving. The air suspension pump went out. And an oxygen sensor for the carbon emissions was faulty as well... just all sorts of random headaches within less than 2 years. Was very happy to sell it cuz it was just bleeding money to keep fixing it. Also it was only 4 years old at the time I bought it with only 20k miles on it.

For those who want a sleeper, the C6 S6. It has a 5.2L V10 under the hood and looks *almost* identical to the A6, apart from minor differences only a few will notice. I own one and couldn’t possibly be happier with it. It isn’t the sharpest on a back road or the fastest in a straight line, but its fast and agile enough to have a good time in, not to mention the Beyoncé under the hood ;) Im sure people would question the handling first and foremost, to which i say there’s quite a few of different adjustable coilover setups from different brands like H&R, Bilstein, and a few others. Its a pretty reliable engine if well maintained, but definitely set aside some money for parts and maintenance. Doing it yourself will obviously save a few bucks, and there’s a good number of parts from other manufacturers, some of which supply the original parts for the S6. PLEASE do your research before diving into one of these, because if you ain’t prepared, its gonna burn through money like California in the summer. Alternatives: if you want luxury, get the S8, same 5.2 V10. If you want fast, get the RS6 with the twin turbo 5.0 V10. I chose the S6 because i find its the best value for money, and 430hp is plenty already.

I had a new SL55 in 2003 and in the shop more than my garage. Now more than a decade later, I have an R231 SL400 and it's totally reliable with no issues. Perhaps you should look at the earlier of the last of the SL's with retractable hardtop. Not as 'broke guys car', but as a future classic since the new R232 is rag-top only and really less comfortable than the one I have now. cheers!

C5 Z06 cars are pretty sweet. But for less you can get an LT1 powered C4 Corvette that has major 80's supercar energy. Big FI V8 up front, 6 Speed ZF trans, You can go with 315s squared and they won't pop out at all, Independent suspension, flip up lights, clamshell hood, you sit on the floor and it's 3300 lbs... And it's a Targa. For a little more coin you can nab a 96 with an LT-4 that will rev to about 6500 RPM.

I love these kind of videos, nice job. Couple weeks ago l couldn't believe my eyes when a Karma rolled along side of me on the freeway. First thought was "it's running (their known to be seriously troublesome) second thought "it's freaking gorgeous!!!" I was driving my old 412 Ferrari and he was checking me out, my car though somewhat reliable and fun (manual) to drive looked like crap compared to the Karma. I heard some company was building them with Corvette running gear but don't know if they were actually built or not.

You have to ask yourself this question: Do you want to actually go fast, or just look like you could go fast. Choose one or the other if you want to save money. Me? I put an all-aluminum 383 stroker with a procharger into a 1987 Monte Carlo. Now, a standard Monte Carlo sucks at braking and turning, but that's because its suspension is 35 years old and substandard when new. After a round of new and bigger sway bars, body stiffening braces, new control arms, coil overs, and 6-piston disk brakes on all for corners (cheap conversion with 1996 Chevy Blazer Parts and off-the-shelf brakes) she's stiff as hell and stops on a dime. I didn't break the bank either. My "small town beater car" can troll almost any cocky kid in his dad's new car.
