40 THOUSAND (hypothetical) SPONDOOLIES - for a used car

[Franco Cozzo]

Following on from MercuryT's thread we're going to have another on what car you're going to throw down 40 thousand hypothetical spondoolies on.

The scenario is:

- $40K to spend on a secondary car (can spend less, or make up the balance in mods)
- No AU Falcons
- No strippers, nose candy, mortgage payments or other sensible uses of $40K allowed, has to be car and or car modifications related
- Can be multiple cars (ie give us your top 3 etc)
- Can be motorbike(s) or truck(s)
- Throw up images of the cars

While there's currently none for sale, I recently saw 3x E34 BMW M5's for sale for sub $30K recently:







- 250KW 3.8L I6
- Large Sedan
- Manual
- RWD
- 'Classic Plastic' looks

Modifications:

- Aftermarket ECU
- Freshen up Mechanicals
- Tune

Second choice:

E38 BMW L7:





- Only 899 built world wide
- Only 6 delivered to Australia
- $375K back in the 1990s
- 5.4L V12
- Could fire an RPG from the back seats and still miss the driver
- Bond villain cool
