Lots of bickering about brands at the mo and I saw a suggestion similar to this,so I thought why not...
Simple rules. Up to 110k to spend on a new car, Must be new, available within 6 months of today. In either direction. Money is for car purchase only, cannot be used for mods, or to buy multiple cars. Second hand euro only exception Money was a one time only gift, non taxable. What do you buy?

F6 with the rest on the engine. Or if you can't mod then the most expensive one.

Wierd choices why would a Holden fan opt for anything but a GTS?
You can have a GTS or an R8....no no I'll take the R8 thanks.

$110k gets a lot of car, but anything second hand without a warranty could be costly. I would try looking for a GTR R35 otherwise.

If I had 110k to spend on a car there's no way I would waste it on a new car I'd buy a collector item.
Even If I won Xlotto I wouldnt buy a new car more than about 50k its just not worth it IMHO. Sorry cant vote!

I voted euro (surprised it hasn't got more hits)
For me, It would be a tough choice between E92 M3, V10 M5, C63 or any RS from Audi. I think a jap category could have been handy for the GTR too

If you have time to wait, hold out 6-9 months and get an 'My11 R35 when they drop to the 110's... currently if you wangle one youll be up for 120 or so but in 6-9 that will be 110ish I believe.
If waiting or mods isnt part of the rules, get Willall to buy an 09 for you and do 10K worth of transmission mods then buy it off them for 110K Either way its '35 or the highway hahahahahaha Daniel |

Yep, a R35 because nothing comes close bang for buck.

I would take a Maserati Shamal. Ugly but nice, different and more than enough supercar driving amongst potholes and speed cameras.
