Help My Boss Choose A Car. - ANTHONYD - 10-06-2006

Alright fellas...I told him I'd ask all you guys.

He's not a car guy....but he's wealthy.

He wants a 2 seater, something unpractical and full of nuts.

He hates the pussy cars, BMW roadster and Boxter. Hates them.

He was looking at a Nissan Z and liked it.

I told him to look at the Solstice and Saturn Sky. (pussy cars)

I then told him to give the G35 coupe a test drive.

------------------

Here's where we need your help fellas.

Let's be realistic here, I don't want to se any Lutus' or Bugattis here. Be realistic.

What would you guys reccomend.

Please post pictures because I'll be printing this off for him.

Thanks.

Anthony and Dieter.

Solstice GXP. 260 hp Turbocharged is not a pussy car.

G35 coupe is very nice, but it isnt a 2 seater :P


Help My Boss Choose A Car. - mo_focus - 10-06-2006

how about a Cayman?

I would definetly go with the G35. Love it.

also you can look into Corvette, Viper? How about Crossfire? or even the new MB SL?

Why not a Mustang? I'm sure he can afford a high end GT convertable and maybe one of the limited edition models at that...

Help My Boss Choose A Car. - Flofocus - 10-06-2006

clearly says 2 seater! :P


Help My Boss Choose A Car. - ANTHONYD - 10-06-2006

2 seater he said :P


Help My Boss Choose A Car. - NefCanuck - 10-06-2006

You call those things in the back of the Mustang seats? :lol:

Pure two seaters? If he wants to go off the beaten track there's the Chrysler Crossfire (Which I believe is still in production)

insert AMG benz that fits his price range.

yesterday, when i pulled into work, a porsche carera 4S pulled into a spot behind me. i dunno whos car it was but they were letting one of the ladies that works there (an account manager) drive it. she normally dirves an old civic. either way i was scringing at the beating that she was giving a $150k cars clutch!!! it didnt sound good at all!


Help My Boss Choose A Car. - habmann - 10-06-2006

My vote would be for the Cadillac XLR.

2 seater, not the normal 2 seat car you see. Unpractical, and its pretty rare car.


Help My Boss Choose A Car. - Flofocus - 10-06-2006

Also a Boxster S is not a pussy car.

Tell him to go drive the Boxster S.

Help My Boss Choose A Car. - Flofocus - 10-06-2006

Id rather drive the asshole car. :lol:


Help My Boss Choose A Car. - ZX5focused - 10-06-2006

whats the price range?? or is gonna be "i like that car the most, i dont care what it costs?"



Help My Boss Choose A Car. - svt_rodg - 10-06-2006

'06 BMW M Roadster with the hard top.




Help My Boss Choose A Car. - scoobasteve - 10-06-2006

Good call... I'd definatley look into that M roadster.

or see if he can get on the list for a

Shelby GT500... not sure when its being released, but its not a pussy car
(it does seat 4 though)

Lol, tell him to buy a ford gt and call it a day


or a used Z8....

Help My Boss Choose A Car. - ZX5focused - 10-06-2006

I've already spotted a half GT500s driving around in Toronto... if it weren't for difference in wheels, I'd say they were all the same as people seem to buy only one colour.




Help My Boss Choose A Car. - scoobasteve - 10-06-2006

MMM.... Z8

Help My Boss Choose A Car. - FocusGuy7476 - 10-06-2006

Think all the GT500s have sold out, or that what i've heard.

I'd go with a with a new Merc SLK350 or 55, Jaguar XK or used XKR. those are the only ones i'd consider.


Help My Boss Choose A Car. - 02_svt_guy - 10-06-2006

NOT A 2 SEATER BUT WHAT BOUT A SUBARU WRX STI?

MAZDA RX-8?

HONDA S2000?
