What car would you buy if you had $30k max to spend?
BMW Z3 M would probably be worth a very thorough consideration in such a scenario.
>>14086534
29,999 bus fare
1$ tip to dinner
I'd buy a really nice motorcycle. You can't buy a very nice car for that cheap.
C5 Vette
FD RX-7
Supra
A heavily modded S2K
>>14086534
Probably some shitty meme pigfat 60's boomer-mobile so that I can bang slutty PC meme girls who don't know what to do other than put out when confronted with meme "old school" alpha. Then a minivan for practical shit.
997 carrera s
15k for a JDM FD
15k on a EOP delete/intercooler upgrade/catch can/oil cooler/ECU tune/port job/gauges/boost controller/fixing anything that's broken
anything leftover goes towards new wheels and rubber, an RE-Amemiya kit, and suspension parts.
>>14086559
You could build a really really really really really really really really really really nice bike for $30k. That being said, get the fuck back to your containment thread

>tfw having dearms like this for years but cant afford it
Personally at the moment I would love to get a Evo 9 MR and proceed to waste 95% of my salary of mods and track days.
Fuck man, maybe one day before I leave this earth. Kek
>>14086534
Skoda Fabia
Tho it's not conservative enough for my taste.
I want a quality car with a design that clearly states that the car is merely a tool. Like an old Volvo.
>>14086884
The Dacia Logan MCV should be right up your alley. For OP's budget, you can buy 4, so reliability isn't really a concern.
You don't even have to do oil changes, just run it into the ground, then buy another one.
>>14086534
cash?
>>14086902
Thanks. I might actually consider that. Lots of space for bicycles and tools too

Juat wait untill they release the ute version. That should suit you even better.
>>14086534
Fun weekend car? FD RX-7 with cooling mods, suspension upgrades, maybe a single turbo conversion, and an LPG conversions. Maybe a 1970 Grabber Orange Mustang coupe.
Daily? New Twingo comes to mind. Spec it out like a 2015 Renault 5 Turbo. Or maybe the nicest LS400 ever, completely redo the air ride (including a standalone controller), and pocket the change.
>>14086780
That's a car tho, dad
Gt86
I think you can get a VW Type 2 for that price, so possibly a VW Type 2 if it's in good condition
>>14086534
BRZ
>>14086534
F-RS and get a supercharger kit, buy a samurai with remaining funds
>>14086534
A mint 62-64 Sport Fury. 10k
Built 6.4 EFI Hemi 12k
Getrag T6060 + Strange S60 6k
Steelies 8.5x15 and as many tires as 2k can get me.
>>14086534
I'd probably buy a brand new Altima 2.5. They're great peppy cars.
>>14086534
30 corollas
An Integra Type R, a 180SX and a used Camry or something for DD.

>that the car is merely a tool
it's like you are insecure about yourself and don't want you own car to look better than you
60 Twingos
>>14087766
Gaudy, flashy cars never looked good.
I don't know about the US-prices, but In Germany you'd get any of these used cars with between 40k and 60k miles for the money.

I'd buy a clean N54 135i/335i for 20k and then put down 500whp for another 5k. Leave the other 5k for when the radiator explodes or I need new turbos.
>>14086534
Either a 2012-2015 Camaro SS 1LE or an Infiniti G37 coupe

I'd look for a well sorted out Van Diemen RF01 with a Zetec.
What do?

The best Z3 M Coupe I could find.
A GTO, then just spend the rest on a bike
>>14086534
Rx7 FD shell and a 20B
>>14088191
I like the shooting brake, I really do, but when it comes down to buying such a compact sports car I'd rather have the roofless experience than the extra utility. The beauty of the Z3 is that even in Germany you can find type approved trailer hitches for it so you're not dependent on the cargo space of the coupe. This is not the case for say, an MX-5, and even SLKs only have bike racks offered for them, no real hitches.
used GT86 for daily
old twingo with 2.0/1.6 VTEC for shits and giggles
V6 Impala
30 Volvo 240s
>>14086534
A good C5 and some mods
Foxbody and the rest on mods
Volvo 240 with a LS9 swap.
Me personally? I'd buy a S2000.
I know they can be had for half the budget, but I'm not going to cheap on when I get one. I'll gladly pay the premium for a well taken care of low mile example. Tired of buying used and abused crap that I end up dumping enough money into repairs to have just bought a mint example in the first place.
>>14086572
MKIV or MKIII supra?

I'm gonna cheat and use 30k Aus dollars

Its $990 over but you could get him down below 30k easy enough, I even have the magazine it was featured in.
