For people into cars.........
 
Ok, I'm a big car fan. Love all types of cars, but I'm a big Dodge fan. If you had $100,000 :yelgreedy , what car would you buy and why?

I myself would by a Dodge Viper or an Aston Martin DB9. But, there's tons of others I like. Just curious on what you would buy!

Bah, Chevy rules, mopar drools and the Ford won't even start. :p

Uh, sorry....flashback, man.

$100k, eh? Well you wouldn't be a serious contender for top dog, but you could certainly scare the shit out of the neighbors....and yourself.
Being not normal, with an extra 100k I'd probably add a '34 Ford coupe, ala California Kid style.

If I had 100k I'd buy Chitty chitty bang bang.

If I had 100k I'd upgrade my barn and buy a few more horses to enjoy.
I already have my dream car:

Nice Vette Hoof! Have you done any work to it?

I'm a fan of Chevy as well, but I grew up around Dodges. Can't stand Ford whatsoever. I'd take a new Mustang though! And actually, I'd save up a lillte more, and buy a Hennessey Viper. 1000+ HP should do the trick!

If I had $100,000, I'd buy a Mazda 5, and spend the leftover $80k on an addition onto our house.

For me, it would have to be this:

It's amazing....they can win the race and then creep along, carrying the "Race Queen", in the victory parade through town..... and for relatively cheap. :thumbsup:

Is this mofo for sale yet? Not in the price range anyway I guess....

I suppose I could make due with a Commander with a little R36 on the side...

I'm not gonna argue too much with ya Bruce.... but the srt8 (Grand Cherokee) gets to 60 in under 5. I don't need any more than, I'm a soccer mom. :D

xoxoxoBruce 08-19-2006 07:18 PM

Yeah, I've read that, just don't forget to slow way down for the corners.
Btw, that's the 6.1 L, not the 5.7, but for that $100,000 you could get two of them.

That begs the question, why don't you have one? I know you've got LJ wrapped around your little finger, (I think he's the one that told me) so just tell him. :D

jinx 08-19-2006 07:25 PM

I drove one a couple of weeks ago, and its exactly what I need... but I've got a perfectly good GC in the driveway that I just got all nice and broken in.
We're gonna let one depreciate a bit and get it off-lease when they start rolling back in.

For the record, it (the hemi Commander) didn't seem much faster than my 4.7L V8 Laredo... but I culd really use that extra row of seats.
