I did not mention this on my email but if you are open to it, Galpin Auto Sports will build you a 1000 HP Shelby Cobra for $68-73K. Upgraded injectors, intakes, big superchargers, brakes, suspension, and widebody with light wheels to go with it. 0-60 in 2.2 seconds and have a backseat. It looks mean and when you are on the street, cars will bow their heads. Galpin is only 20 minutes from where I live and have seen their work.

WOW! I would wrap that around a tree in a week or be in jail. Me with 1000 HP is not good thing. Thanks.though, I'm gonna cool my jets for a bit and see what opens up later in the year. In the meantime, I will test drive a lot of neat rides.

You can't go wrong with the E92 M3... Launch control plus the power and high revving V8 sounds amazing! Find a low-mileage DCT with the carbon roof. The MPG is awful but you'll pickup smiles per gallon

Consumer reports also just listed it as second most reliable "high end sports car". Win/Win

Good luck with the search!
