Nice!!! You HAVE to post pictures when you get it. I have been lusting over the A6 Avant since the V10 days. Hope it all works out and you don't have to give anything up for it.

Hellcat Redeye. Comfortable, roomy, fast and most importantly insanely fun.

Count me in the 911 camp. I already daily a 997.1 base most of the time. I'd just go for a little newer (and nicer) one.

I just checked my finances and found one within my budget...

'70 Chevelle SS hardtop. Blown LS, 6 speed, Brembos all around, most of the Hotchkis catalog underneath, quiet exhaust. Dark blue on black, no stripes, cowl hood.

ETA missed the thread title apparently. That Chevelle is way outside my budget. For something I could afford, maybe a square body C10. Those are still relatively cheap and plentiful. Still a cool car, just not one I could keep reliable enough to daily.

You lucky dog. Who needs a mustang when that's your grocery getter?

Gee, r0gue. I thought you would have said this...

Someone already posted an Audi R8. If I had unlimited funds, that would probably be it.

Just drove my buddies Porsche Macan. It goes really well, handles nice, lotsa room, feels like a Porche, and you can get in and out of it without a shoe horn. Seems like a fun ride to me.

A Bentley Continental GT Coupe. I saw a low mileage one (20,000 or so) a few years ago for $40,000. AWD, twin turbo V12, 0-60 in 4.6 seconds, 12.9 second 1/4 mile, I can afford the car, but I'm sure the maintenance would kill me.

A red Gladiator Rubicon pickup truck. Local dealer had one. It crossed my mind to sell my 745 HP 2015 Mustang and my 95 F150 and get it.

I’d get another 2013 Sierra in a heartbeat. It’s a tank in mud, snow, and rocks- stable on street, tossable (for a big ride) if you turn off stability and traction in rain and snow, and has given me zero bullsh!$. Lube/ Oil/ Filters, tires, and front brakes in 73k miles. Doing shocks tomorrow as the tubes are rusting out and I can feel the dampening getting looser.
Replaced one hub assy 10k ago, and that’s it. Never worried about it starting and a lot of the work can be driveway done if need be.

You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

A Ford Focus RS with 350 HP, 350 lbs./ft. and AWD intrigues me no end.

Those are so beautiful. I would like probably take the V8 though.

But seriously, what would the insurance cost be?
