Planning to sell my Z. What to get?

mts

So, it's perfectly okay for someone to come here to ask about trying to decide between an Evo and a Mustang, or to get some opinions as which modification to do next, but if he has a bit bigger budget he now has "small self assurance and conviction"? That's a pretty douchy comment in my opinion. This is a car forum isn't it? Plus the OP already said he can't easily test drive the cars due to his location.

To the OP, I've driven 3 of the 4 cars on your list. Bang for the buck the C7 wins hands down in my book and they may be pretty rare where you live. You can get one loaded for well under your budget and some cam, intake exhaust and reflash work can get you 550+hp pretty easy. The C7 is light years better than the C6. If your budget is a firm one, hard to go wrong with the C7.

I think the Porsche is the best all around car (money not factored in) they are really nice to drive, much more refined than the C7, just plain good at everything. All that being said, if money weren't a consideration, the R8 would be my choice. A good friend has one and its is really sweet. Haven't driven or ridden in your 4th car so I can't really comment there. It certainly would be the most rare of the four cars (where I live anyway). In the end though you'd be fortunate to own any of those thoroughbred cars.

Also, if you really want a shot at some feedback I would suggest joining the Rennlist forum. It has about 75,000 members and you are more likely to get info from people that have driven/ridden in your list of cars though it's likely to be a bit 911 biased for obvious reasons. My experience has been they will tend to be much less judgmental about high dollar purchases than this forum will be. Good luck.

Very well put.

Thank you mts for the great feedback. This is exactly what I am looking for.

Due to my location, some of the cars above are not available in the local market and feedback from people that have actual experience in driving them are a big help for me.

Thanks again! Reps sent!

It's obvious you have a lot of disposable income to throw away on a $100K car without even driving it. Why not book a plane ticket from your location to Las Vegas and rent those for the day? That way you can at least drive something comparable, if not identical to the car you want and decide that way instead of asking some of us common folk what to do with your money.

Good idea. I will definitely do this if I can spare the time. Thanks!

Theres some good advice.
Figure that someone who has this kind of coin for a car.........
1. Is college educated, and should be able to make sound decisions on their own...
2. If not college educated, Is smart enough to make that kind of "play money" by hook or by crook (either way, kudos) and shouldn't need our advice...
3. Married money (in which case should be asking her, not us)
4. Just hit the lottery, and needs an accountant.
5. None of the above, and just has priorities fu#$ed up.

Whatever you decide, my friend, good luck and enjoy it....all your choices should be a blast to drive.

axmea?

Not douchy at all. Not apologizing for how it came across either. It is big boy advice. If you're spending that amount of money, do your own homework and not rely on people you do not know. I would also make a decision based on hands on experience. There are cars out where he lives and can make connections with people who has these cars. Connect with them. Going back to buyer's remorse where people make bad decisions because of feedback from the internet. Buying a 6 figure car is not something I would rely on forum members to make. My .02 cents on darn 6 figure purchase.
