4 vehicles

[Lebowski]

I would never buy 4 cars with $50k.  Two at most.

I refuse to participate

Yeah, this makes no logical sense.

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

TYPHOON! Good choice.

Yep! It would my DD and it can pull my jet ski/Qaud/motorcyle trailer!

[Eye of the Tiger]

I'm changing my submission...

1. 1st gen Honda CRV with an H22 turbo, locking center differential, and rally coil overs. $7,000 after restomod.

2. FRS with 6000 miles on it. $23,000.

3. 1995 Ford F-250 turbo diesel, slammed, stanced, gear splitter, Lightening body kit. $10,000

4. 2008 Kawasaki ZX14R with turbo kit $10,000

[ChrisV]

I'll just do it with basically the cars I already have.

'94 Chevy diesel dually
'06 Mustang GT convertible
'11 MINI Cooper
and to switch it up, an '01 BMW E38 Sport (to replace my dearly departed '98 E38)

[Eye of the Tiger]

Replace CRV with 840ci. I saw one today. Magnificent.

[Vinsanity]

shit, if we're doing boats...

Escalade can tow this, right?

[68_427]

Yes but can you handle a 23ft boat?  Trust me thats a good size boat.

[Eye of the Tiger]

LOL boats are hard to drive

[Eye of the Tiger]

1. Accent. free
2. Harley. free
3. Freightliner. free
4. Z06 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2dr-Coupe-/150880895752?

$200 left for blow

That's a small boat. The kind thousands around here buy with no boating experience whatsoever, and then clog up Lake St. Claire, tie them all together and get drunk.

Pontoon boats are much better for being drunk and combining into one huge drunk floating island. The tri-hulls
can also handle amazingly well.

I've never trusted pontoons.

Good floating party barges if they're kept on tiny little lakes I guess.

[SVT666]

Yeah, this makes no logical sense.

Who said anything about logic?

[SVT666]

Yes but can you handle a 23ft boat?  Trust me thats a good size boat.

23' isn't that big.  A good chunk of the wakeboard boats on the market are in that 22'-23' range. It's about the max I would go, but please don't act like it's huge.

[Lebowski]

I just don't think the thread makes any sense.

[Onslaught]

I just don't think the thread makes any sense.

We don't have many threads in here these days and not all that much to talk about. So anything's good for me.
As long as it's not some right wing Obama bashing thread anyway. We have enough of those.

It's not huge by itself, but when you're trying to navigate through into docks with other boats and shit it get's pretty difficult.  What makes a huge difference is also the width of the boat.

[sportyaccordy]

Its not the size of the boat.

[Eye of the Tiger]

Its not the size of the boat.

It's the size of the motor?

[MrH]

I just don't think the thread makes any sense.

Agreed.

I thought Jalopnik's post the other day was a cooler idea.

$240k.  Used or new, doesn't matter.  Number of cars, doesn't matter.  How would you spend that on cars.

[SVT666]

Agreed.

Start a new one then.

Seeing that I'll never spend that much on cars, I don't care.

[r0tor]

Used RX8 - 15k
1999ish subaru 2.5RSTi conversion - $13k
B6 Audi S4 - $22k
...and some beater truck or suv...

[Stark]

LOL that first car alone already put you over budget

Ah I misread those instructions.  Let me try again.  I'm still getting a sailboat though.

20k on autotrader for my swag


5k for my jeep


and then i've got a bunch leftover for a laser AND a vanguard 15.  rat'l: those are the fleets near me.

I'd probably want a motorcycle, too.  I might do a second one with that in mind.

[Raza]

W8s cost $4,000 now!?  Jesus fucking Christ.  A 6 speed W8 wagon would be an awesome occasional use car.  

But why a Sky in "not as good as a Miata" trim and not a Sky Red Line?

Hmm, I think I'm going to do a second list now.

I didn't spend enough time searching to find a Red Line.  Though that would obviously be ideal.

[sportyaccordy]

I want to change my list too. After this weekend

Pedal/commuter bike: Mercier Kilo TT + Sugino 75 drivetrain + Chinese carbon tubulars (50/88mm)
Mountain/track bike: 98-02 ZX6R w/ZX-12 forks + 636 shock and chopped SOLO seat.
2 up/utility bike: ZZR1200 or Bandit 1200 w/luggage and back rest
Car: Old Accord or Corolla 5 spd wagon.

50K lmao I could prob do all this for 10K. Don't sleep though, the pedal bike would prob be a good $1000 of that
