Best FUN car under 100K?

GhostyM · 10-03-2017, 07:41 PM

If you had to buy a FUN car for less than 100k.. what would you buy?

I'm in the process of dealing with a lemon'ed sports car, and when I get my buyback, I'm on the prowl for my next addiction here shortly, nothing next year, has to be purchasable right away! Hopefully no one recommends an SUV.

Thanks for the help, looking forward to the responses! Used or new doesn't matter!

New or used? That changes what options to consider.

Used M6 can be had for about $46K (3 years old with 45k miles). New ones are about $133K

Used prices.

well, there are many aspects to a fun car.... you can have fun in a Miata.... but if you would rather burn the tires off quickly, I can see the Viper being a hand full of fun. Do you want a weekend cruiser type fun car, track toy, canyon carver, I need more info to help with suggestions.

c1pher · 10-03-2017, 09:47 PM

Z06 costs less than $100k.

Red Bread · 10-03-2017, 10:10 PM

This and a $50k gift card to Tire Rack.

I started a goal of getting a <$100k fun car in five years. On my short list that are $90-100k right now:
997.1/2 GT3
Last-gen R8 V10 w/gated manual (these are $85-90k now)

F-Type R - The car I'm lemoning... LOL.

GT4's are awesome! Just expensive for what it is!

Well guys, I've been eyeing the Z06 for a WHILE now.

Found a local one for a good price/color, gonna take it for a drive!

GORDON.M3 · 10-04-2017, 12:59 AM

F-type sucks, if you can't get the GT4 then the Z06.

It's spent over 40+ days getting fixed so far.

And I'll look for GT4's but there is not PDK version is there?

Z06 seems really good because of easy power adders. Pulley/tune/intake and you're around 675/700rwhp it seems!

MSups6 · 10-04-2017, 05:37 AM

Anything for 50/60k and 40k for mods.
