The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

[o0n8]

Glad I'm not the only one after a 911 GT3 RS.

I'm like Richard Hammond when it comes to the 911, It's what I compare all other super cars too. Should I not keep the Camaro that's what i'm saving up for.

I'm with Will on the GT3. get above set of track tires and a. set of snow tires and drive the s*** out of it. It would be my new winter beater
BTW I'm@ Mid Ohio today running group3/4 with the TT cars as well. its lunch time right now

For 200k.....hmmm...I think this bad boy will keep me happy for a while, and use the leftover money to mod the s*** out of the MS3:

So let's play this game:

Say you're a millionaire with a steady income, nice garage, stability, a reliable DD in the garage and all that jazz. You have $200k to spend on a fun car/truck. What would you buy?

Audi R8 V10 boosted by Underground Racing.

$200k spent on a car would have to be an Italian super car with a drop top.

First crack at plasti dip, well 2nd actually, didn't like the 1st time, but this is more liveable:

 

[princess peach]

that isn't enough for an Aston, so I'd go for the R8 or the GT3 RS

I am stuck at work and without my car...I would have preferred to be there!

 

[WillD]

That is an acceptable use of plastidip

It looks good! (2thumbs)

Cadillac CTS-V wagon for getting groceries, Tesla Model S Performance for commuting and still enough left over to buy a new MX-5 for top down driving on a Sunday. But if we must limit it to one car, I wonder what the final total would be to buy and prep for import an M5 Touring or E63 AMG Estate?

ok so since i technecially didnt play along before, if i had a 200k limit for a car....
i would find myself either a Ferrari 550 of 575 Maranello.... i have ALWAYS loved that car, i know it would be used and well below the budget but i dont care, its still a dream car from my childhood so if i had the money and could make it happen

I'd save a little bit more and get the greatest super car there ever was IMO

thats an awesome car but its gonna be like twice the budget (or more) for this game haha

 

[WillD]

Some good ideas so far! I will race you all with my fictional GT3 RS 4.0 or GT3 Cup

Anthony, you have to come up with an actual car!

 

[Cleverfrog]

I did see one for 330,000 pounds lol. Hence the whole "save more" though hehehe

 

[thejeans]

convert pounds to dollars.... haha

330k pounds is roughly 510k USD

330k pounds is roughly 510k USD

Plus importing taxes and other fees

 

[thejeans]

yeah, blew the "budget" out of the water on that one hahaha

I'm jealous I didn't think of that
