If you're OK with a stock vehicle, new Z06 all the way. I wouldn't mod it and throw away the warranty for the first year of a new car, though. Maybe once the first model year quirks get worked out.

THIS. After ~450-500whp, it's all the same. Massive wheelspin. Unless we get some suspension parts to help us put power down, it's all a moot point.

:iagree:

The best plan would be to defer the car stuff for a year and bank every dime. Then revisit next year and walk into the deal with a huge wad of cash. Plus you can plan your build down to...

Still looks like a Mustang. Starts at $82k. Interior is still embarrassing. I'd pass. If you want a Mustang, buy one and mod it yourself. Save the Saleen tax. I'll bet you could save 20k if you skip...

It's fast. THere's no denying that. But between the way it looks and the auto, if someone gave me a GTR I'd drive it straight to the Porsche dealer for the newest used 911tt they had on the lot with...

If I were in your shoes, my list would look like this:
1. As new a 911tt you can afford
2. C7
