**** dude.....im liken the BMW or the Camaro....tough call on all of them though

Bryan · 05-06-2007, 04:22 PM

I'm gonna have to go with the RX-7.

silvergtjrad · 05-06-2007, 04:28 PM

camaro followed second by the porsche

shogun99 · 05-06-2007, 04:30 PM

but man, that is a really mint looking Grand National....and its a GNX!
damn, tough call indeed. I think i outdid myself

geldartb · 05-06-2007, 04:31 PM

either the grand national or the camaro ss

Tank · 05-06-2007, 04:32 PM

1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS hands down. Nothing beats AMERICAN MUSCLE.

shogun99 · 05-06-2007, 04:35 PM

So we've gotten votes for everything except for the SUpra...was it a bad call including a Twin Turbo Supra into the mix?
I think it stacks up well against the rest.

Bryan · 05-06-2007, 04:40 PM

Are you planning to buy one of these?

shogun99 · 05-06-2007, 04:44 PM

I would actually consider buying that Grand National (assuming the interior is mint) but im moving overseas for a year so no point. The rest of the cars i couldnt buy and still live my lifestlye.

MysteriousGT1 · 05-06-2007, 04:45 PM

Grand National

Grreen99GT · 05-06-2007, 04:45 PM

that camaro looks badass

Jake · 05-06-2007, 04:52 PM

Both the Camaro and the Rx-7 are sexy.... But if it came down to it I think I'd go with the Camaro. That Rx-7 is hot though..

notsoaveragej0e · 05-06-2007, 05:46 PM

Camaro > *

GN > the rest

AMRAAM4 · 05-06-2007, 06:02 PM

The Camaro, followed by the Supra. The Camaro will be worth the most in the long run.

And that RX7 is a riced out POS, and nowhere near $33k. It doesn't even belong on this list. If that is what the person is asking, they are going to be eating that car. I couldn't get $30k for mine. and it's more rare, faster, and has better quality parts.

shogun99 · 05-06-2007, 06:12 PM

Well it sounds pretty serious....here is what he listed under the car:

"Gunmetal grey.Summer driven never seen rain.ApexiN1 exhaust&intercooler,rebuilt racing engine,street port&polish,T66 ball bearing turbo,upraded fuel system,carbon fiber hood,Re Amemiyalights,over 50g in upgades"

I think for a racing engine, $33K is pretty good. It has seriously LOW km's as well.

shogun99 · 05-06-2007, 06:15 PM

Or you can get this RX-7 for about $10k LESS.

GAY ass wheels but serious horsepower.

"Excellent condition, engine rebuilt at 100,000 km. by Magnus Motorsports, street ported, T70 T4 Turbo kit. Too much to list. Call for all details, no accidents, 444 RWHP. 110,000 km"

ryanbgb22 · 05-06-2007, 06:36 PM

grand national, especially for the price.

shogun99 · 05-06-2007, 06:39 PM

I think coupe would have a WET DREAM detailing the grand national. That car has a body style made for detailing. The mirror on that black paint would be CRAZY!
