I was gonna get a Porsche Boxster S with all the options but they cost over $100k.

So I guess I'll get a Boxster S with some options, just enough to get it to $100k.

Used 997 GT3, probably. A used 997TT would be a close second, if only for the additional rear seats for my legless kids....

It was the only one under $100k on cars.com, so it could be a scam. But hey, if someone just *gave* me $100k anyway, who says I have to make a wise decision with it?

No particular order.



This Z06 specifically.

Both 911's would be in the dark blue color that they have. Any left over money would go towards track days, tires and brakes. (If we are allowed to in this dream land.

Th funny thing is that I would most likely go for the least expensive one (the vette) if I were actually doing it. The ACR would be a very close second, and would win out if I had the money to actually track it regularly, and one of the 911's would win if I had the money to pay someone else to work on it, with the bias towards the GT3 if I were going to track it as often as I would in a dream world, and the TT if it were to be more of a DD. The atom would be great, but registering one in CA is stupid difficult, and near impossible unless you are getting it new, or it is already registered. And anyone who went through the hassle of getting an atom registered in CA knows what a PITA it is, so when they do come up for sale, it is pushing that $100k limit.

The obvious answer would be to grab a Ferrari or some type of one-off used super car. For me though, I think I may go with an Audi S4 prepped by Stassis Eng. They do some pretty awesome stuff with factory Audi's!! The reason why I chose Audi is due to the fact that, one, they are AMAZING cars, both comfortable and great performers, and they're German so you know they can take a beating!

Anyways, the reason why I choose Audi is due to the recent buying experience I had:

I went to a local BMW dealer (Atlanta, GA area) and was looking to by a 6-speed M3. I never thought it would be so a HUGE 'favor' to ask of my local dealership. Dealership aside, drove a 2011 M3 Sedan with DCT and it was okay, ran well, super fast, somewhat comfy. From there I ran down the road to the Audi shop that had a full-prepped Stassis S4. f@#kING CRAZY!!!! For the same PRICE!! To make a long story longer, that car was amazing!!
