50 grand to spend, what would you buy?

Brazen · 30-09-2012, 12:19 AM

My neighbour has just ordered a new Liberty X, talking to him it just is amazing how much great vehicles there are on the market. So got me thinking, you had 50grand to spend on a car tomorrow, what would it be..?

Me? My heart says SSV, but I bet I would go after a Territory Diesel AWD. One of the best SUVs around.

**Polyal** · 30-09-2012, 12:27 AM

I saw this today while posting in another thread. Id rather a V8, id rather a manual but jeez what a package.

Im a sucker for the red leather.

Dont really care if a modded G6ET is quicker and cheaper..Ill take the left over warranty thanks!

JOESBOSS · 30-09-2012, 12:52 AM

if i had 50k to spend on a car i'd get this maybe this one also

Franco Cozzo · 30-09-2012, 12:57 AM

50,0000 $1 hookers.

Or one really expensive one.

Probably a second hand RS Focus, should be able to pick one up for that money now.

OffRoadFalcon · 30-09-2012, 02:15 AM

For one car? I'd try to find a good 7.3L diesel F250 dual cab ute!

Other than that, it'd be a few cars, which ones though hmmmm.

mik · 30-09-2012, 03:23 AM

the temptation to get another sedan is big, but arthritis pain is bigger, i would love a super charged v8 or a 6 turbo, but a diesel terri would be on my list if i had that coin, as it is a terri will be my next limo anyway, probably a 2nd handy though..

Nic85 · 30-09-2012, 07:25 AM

Golf GTi - DSG, leather, bi xenons, premium sound.

Is that F6E selling for rediculously cheap? I think I would have prefered that the the brand new GS with leather I bought.

The eBay link to the gt390 mustang...love the way they sprayed over the door strikers! Poor form.

mcnews · 30-09-2012, 09:17 AM

Barter hard to try and get an F6 sedan new
Wait for a secondhand MKII GT-E come up around that price
Territory Titanium (preferably petrol though)

csv8 · 30-09-2012, 09:22 AM

Skoda Superb interests me...Superb 118TSI Elegance (7sp DSG)
$50,361.30*

Ford_The_Win · 30-09-2012, 09:27 AM

AU Fairmont and save the rest for a rainy day

nstg8a · 30-09-2012, 09:29 AM

Fd rx7, and save the rest for a bulletproof engine build. Or a ls conversion.

**Mechan1k** · 30-09-2012, 09:41 AM

One of these:

And then put the rest to mods and insurance.

XBROO · 30-09-2012, 09:42 AM

I'd look around for a XAGT coupe that dosen't need much work to be on the road.

pursuit2359 · 30-09-2012, 09:48 AM

There's no way I'd spend that kind of money in one hit. I think I'd split it up and go through a series of used cars, maybe turning them over after a year. I was reading up on the FG XR6 Turbo the other day and that would definitely be on my list - serious performance for the money.

I was going to say used 335 GT. or 315 Gs. but that works nice colour combo too.

BaraFGXR6 · 30-09-2012, 10:17 AM

2nd hand GT. Nitro blue, and in manual.

302 XC · 30-09-2012, 10:23 AM

I wouldnt spend that sorta money on one car
Theres more fun, good times to be had with spending less

scots xw · 30-09-2012, 10:34 AM

I would buy nothing but a xwgt

SXR6 · 30-09-2012, 10:39 AM

Maserati 4200GT.

**DJM83** · 30-09-2012, 12:22 PM

This, in this spec to MR375. (it might be 1 or 2k over)

Or one of these

Nikked · 30-09-2012, 01:10 PM

50K?

Full rebuild of my XR6 lol...

or

EL XR8 or ED Fairmont ghia, with a dart block windsor punched out to 400+ cubes.

Although, it does say buy...so i'd guess i'ld just be happy with a EL GT or a MK2 GS.....

FPV8U · 30-09-2012, 01:15 PM

2nd hand 5.0L GS, FGII XR6T or a VW Amorok Trendline.

Deaks · 30-09-2012, 02:03 PM

This:

**TUF_302** · 30-09-2012, 05:13 PM

I'd probably go a fully decked out 4wd, like a Navara, Ranger, Hilux, something to tour Australia in

Sprint347 · 30-09-2012, 05:19 PM

I'd do some hard bargaining on a 335 GT-P

SM1DY · 30-09-2012, 05:30 PM

I love these threads, because my answer is essentially the same every time -

Blood orange BA GT-P, and if finances allow, I'll spend the change on nice little KB set-up.

A smigg over $50k, negotiate hard and its the BEST buy on the market at that price point, END-OF-STORY!
