Was discussing this at work....If you had a max 60K budget what would you go for?
If i went with the Viper/GTR/Porsche it would have to be used obviously.......
If i got any of the those i would prolly be selling my WS6.
However if i go with the SLingshot/abarth/ninja h2 combo i would keep my ws6 and sell a couple older bikes i have since i would be getting the h2 in that choice.
Moderators if you could add the Hell Cat Challenger and Porsche 911 turbo S/GT3/GT2 to the poll that would be great thanks!
Is this to much to ask?Quote:

Abarth?
500 Abarth Cabrio, that rite. It would be all 3 if i went that route. Here's the deal. All three of those would fit within my budget if i went that route. Mint condition abarth go about 13-15K with next to no miles. A nice discounted slingshot is around 22k new and i have seen the ninja H2 discounted as low as 20-22k. which would put that trio around 55-60k, It's basically that route or one of the other super cars. If i go this route i got a couple older bikes to sell and some other personal things so i would prolly be recouping 15-20k of my money... If i go with one of the super cars i would prolly sell the personal items and my ws6 to recoup the 15-20k......Quote:

I drove a stock one and it handled amazing, great car to drive, i know this car with another 80hp and improved handling would be spectacular!
prolly like a mini porsche turbo almost lol.........

Hey carpy you drove any of these cars????????
Just a regular 500. Didn't impress me enough to seek out an Abarth
Have driven a 95 Viper. Didn't care for it
lol the abarth is a whole different car every thing on it except the frame is different....but yeah i'm not suprised a 80hp to the wheel 500 didn't impress you lolQuote:

I'll second 5.0's suggestion though. I didn't think the 5th Gens were horrible but needed a diet

I sat in a 6th Gen Convertible last weekend, front seats not bad but they might have as well ditch the bad seats. Even if you put small kids and have some one in the 5-8 range like me those rear seats are tight. Couldn't imagine if someone at 6ft would have anybody behind them.
I have had the opportunity to drive a 2015 GTR and a 2014 ZL1. Both are incredible vehicles but besides the lack of space for bigger people in a GTR, it is an absolutely AMAZING vehicle and is more fun to drive overall than the ZL1. The ZL1 has plenty of room in the two front seats for 2 bigger/taller people, the TQ is awesome, and the blower whine is music to a car guys ears, but the handling/suspension compared to the GTR is quite lacking.
I voted Viper because they are far/few between and my first "dream car". The Hurst edition that sold at Barrett Jackson last weekend was stunning. Also, I see it as being the most attractive to a female so that has to count for something.
Forget the Hellcat Challenger. Look up the Fireball Edition Camaro ... they are only sold through Eskridge Chevrolet in Guthrie, Oklahoma but they make 720hp for less money than a Hellcat or ZL1.
OKSS thanks, have you driven and highend porsches or Stingray? Can you compare the GTR to those?Quote:
