Help My Boss Choose A Car.
#1
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

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...

2 seater he said :P
#7
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)

My vote would be for the Cadillac XLR.

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

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.

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.
