    New Cars: What Would You Drive??

    Say you were in the market for a new car. With all the new cars out there, WWYD (What would you drive)?

    Rules:
    - $150k limit
    - must be a new car
    - why you like it
    - you CAN'T take the money and buy a bunch of old cars, Chad

    Mainly lurking, just passing through. Still enjoying reading about everyone's progress.

    Crud. Then I guess I'd have to go with the new Challenger; in SRT-8 form. I tried to order one, but they looked at me like I was nuts when I called them up and said I wanted it with manual windows, locks, and lights. So, can I use the rest of the money to remove these features and others I don't care for from the car?

    For a daily driver, though, I'm at an impasse. I don't know of anything out there that I like and I'm going to have to buy a new car before winter.

    A red E-Class Cabriolet:



    Definitely not the most engaging car to drive, but it's big & comfy and a convertible! I miss having a drop top. Most car critics have panned the design of the E-class cabrios, but I think the cars are extremely handsome.

    I took delivery of a new 2010 GMC Terrain SLT 2 last June and have driven it about 15,000 miles. I am very pleased with it and would definitely buy another. My only complaint was the wait, I ordered it March 17 and it arrived at the dealership June 17.

    I've never been much of a Corvette fan but it would have to be the new ZR1

    Why -
    638 Hp
    205 MPH
    Just looks bad ass

    Audi R8 would make it in my garage. Fast, sexy looking, and reliable enough to be a daily driver.

    I also like the new Cadillac 2-door coupe. If it weren't so darn gadget-laden, I'd be in the market for one.

    Ariel Atom. Because it's the sickest car ever made. http://www.arielatom.com/
    The Atom 3 has a $50,000 base price. I'd spend the remaining $100,000 from this fantasy on all the available options.
    Stock it uses a 2 liter Honda motor, supercharger up to 300hp optional, along with carbon fiber and crazy track brakes.
    Coming soon will be a limited production (25) V8 Atom. With over 500hp, that will have over 900hp/ton. I don't know how much that one will cost, but I want it anyway.
