Believe me, I know what I'm talking about...Anyway, that M5 price will plummet on the used market in a year or two (just like the 2015 GT-Rs did, which allowed you to get one, lol!) While it's true the GT-R is pretty fast from a dig, most displays of testicular fortitude on the street are from a roll, and our cars are pretty weak at higher speeds. I fixed that by just not racing. And (just so you know I'm a car guy), I also have a 2017 370z Roadster, a 2003 Evo (that I have had since new), a 1995 Mitsubishi 3000Gt VR4 Spyder in minty condition, and a slightly beat up WRX that my kid uses.

P.S. If you beat a newish 911Turbo, the guy didn't know how to drive (just fyi to get that out of the way).
see....i was enjoying this, but then you went douchey, and slid in a cunty little comment. this wont end well for you here.

but for the moment ill play along.

obviously the M5 price will plummet....its a BMW. they do not hold value. a child knows that, so not impressing me with your "knowledge" just yet. keep trying though.

moving down the list here, the GT-R does lose value quickly but not anywhere near a BMW. a new GTR today loses 20k off the top instantly. 2018's at auction 85-95k right now and not the BS 99,999 "pure" model.

however, 09's still holding decent considering their MSRP was 69k and low mileage ones are still going for 45-55k at auction. so not a terrible loss.

ummmm that car list doesnt make you a car guy. just means you bought cars......and not that great showing of taste either.

Lol! Which was the douchey comment? And an internet discussion not ending well? Heaven forbid! Also (and I'm sure you know this), almost no GT-Rs sold for the "base price"...there were almost none of them available in the states at that trim level, so they basically all sold for a sticker of about $76k...but they still hold value relatively well. And which of those cars suggest poor taste in vehicles?

you've had a few, but one was more notable than the others.

and yes of course you agree.....because i'm not wrong

as for your list of cars i'm sorry its not that great. every teen in my area has an evo or WRX and neither car is that great. now if you have some 800+ monster Evo that you drag race yea points for that. but if it's just a 03 stock evo......meh.

the VR4 at least has a bit of "oh wow look at the off the wall stuff they put in a Mitsubishi" like active aero and 4 wheel steer. i will say twin turbos always helps the cause in pretty much any situation. thats about it.

Man, I wish it was a stock Evo...then I could sell it for what I bought it for in '03. It's modded to about 420whp. It still kept its value decently, but modded Evos are a dime-a-dozen. The VR4 is a Spyder...a very rare hard top convertible of which there are probably only a few hundred left (it was the first hard top convertible available in the US since Ford did it in the 50s). Have you ever driven an Evo?

I have driven an evo. Good car just wasn’t a fan. Turbo and awd is always a good combo just personally car wasn’t my cup of tea.

Plus I went with the Z because there were no 370s in my area. Turn your heard either way and there’s a wrx or evo. Go to any local show/meet and it’s flooded with them and maybe 2 are done right.

I found the Evo to be an amazing car. Slightly better than the Z in fun factor BUT. It really had a lot of quality control issues I couldn't live with. So the Z won hands down. The Z is a faster car, stock as well.

The title of this thread should now be Kia Stinger.... They're getting recalled.
