Might Say Bye To My Solara.

Postby ArizonaEagle07 » Tue May 23, 2006 6:06 pm

Currently own a 2000 Solara SLE & I am contemplating of getting a new car in the next year or so. Want to save up for a big down payment and do research with a few vehicals. I was just offered a salary position at the Pentagon, money isnt much of an object anymore.

2 cars I was looking into were the:

- 07 BMW 335ci 300 hp/300 lbs tq
- 07 Shelby Cobra 500 hp/475 lbs tq

Wanted to know if anyone knew if Toyota was coming back with the Supra? Might look into that too.

Any other car ideas? under 45k

Take a look at the IS350 such a beautiful car. Not to mention it has 306hp. Faster than the current mustang gt. For 45 you can get one fully loaded. If you really want the mustang at least wait one year because normally after 1 year of use they sell for half price.

Please don't get that Mustang.

If money is not an object, don't get a 3 series, get a 5 or 7 series BMW. Much nicer.

Nice choices, but good luck trying to get the '07 Shelby Cobra, from what I've heard there is a long waiting list, unless you know someone that can make it happen!

5/7 series are a bit much. Plus 3 series coupe is nice small 2dr with power! Twin Turbo system easily update the turbo.

So, is it (G35) REALLY going to look like that, or nothing like it by the time it goes into production.

That look is NIIICE, but I wonder how close the real thing will be?
