You have $20,000 USD (or $22,000 CDN) and you can buy any car ever built that lands in that price range, what would it be?  Why? and show proof you can buy it for that price.

This sucks.  What a stupid challenge.  I'm having a hard time with this one, but I think I would get this:


2006 Pontiac GTO

400 hp, 6 spd manual, and the LS engine will easily make huge numbers with just exhaust, camshaft, and a tune.

Canada eh?

I recently took a trip to Montreal and Toronto.  The highlight of the trip was seeing an R32 GT-R parked on the street.

The best thing in Canada... comes from Japan. :evildude:

If I had the money right now, this would be my next car.

2006 black Pontiac GTO with 33,948 miles - $16,900

I thought GTOs weren't Canada-legal for bumper issues?
