What car to get? - Page 3

checkmate · 08-18-2011, 03:54 PM

OP-If you want a track car either get the Mazda Miata or a Lotus Elise. They are both cheaper options. Taking a $200k car to the track may seem like a charm but just take a lot at the track days and you will see very few of them. More likely to see Miatas, ///Ms and Porsches...

Lol, buy a 2002 Porsche Boxter for $12k, it's a good first sports car.

Awww... you guys scared him off

I was really hoping I could see how he was going to make it out of that huge mound of bs he was in.

What's the point of threads like this anyways??? Why ask other people what car you should get? If you want to hear pro/cons and comparisons from others so you can see if you missed anything, that's fine, but are you really going to buy a Lamborghini Aventador because random people you don't know on a forum told you too???

Maybe you should sit down and re-think this. Placing your own children's futures in our hands might not be the wisest decision.

You can afford a 911 Turbo and R8 and you're cross shopping it with an M3? I think somethings wrong here.

He wants a track car. Even though you can pretty much get a S2000 and prep it for the track and it'll spank many of the higher end luxury cars, the M3 is a pig. Not a car I would want for the track. Great balance, great steering, just a bit heavy.
