In the market for a new car

[funkee]

thread title says it all...budget from 45-55k, 60k if i'm pushing it. Considering Audi A7 or S5, BMW 5 series (with M sport package), or BMW 6 series...suggestions, pros, cons apprecated, thanks brehs.

In that class/range, I'd take the CTS VSport. Best bargain at $60K.

Also, if you can wait, you may be able to swing a Mustang GT Premium + PP (Performance Pack) and a GTI with PP and an APR ECU tune that would put you at 315hp and 380tq for around $60K. I'd probably go that route if it were my money

I'll take a look at the CTS. One of my friends also suggested a CLS benz, but it's a bit big for my taste. eh, i had a z28 camaro in college, and I'm off the sports/supercar thing for now until I decide to buy one as a secondary fun car in a few years...at that time, i'd be looking at a porsche or on the higher end (if my fiance lets me), an older aston or an audi R8

Wat do u want in a car

Also dont buy any cars in this price range, they are not worth keeping out of warranty. Lease

that's why I'm looking at lower mileage whips, nothing over 30-35k miles..most of the BMW's i'm looking at still retain their 100k mile warranties.

good performance/gas mileage, good warranty/maintenance program/costs, sexy interior/eye catching, etc. I have considered keeping my SUV (already paid off), and just leasing a coupe/sedan, just haven't finally decided yet.

Some good advice
No reason to buy those type of cars unless you have disposable income.

They will depreciate and will lose money. Selling cars is a nightmare at times so why not lease and not worry about future problems. And enjoy the car with fukk warranty


But at that price range

The Audi S4 or S5
Would be my top choice

Bmw
M3 or M4
Yo can get a fully loaded 435i and still have more power you need for daily driving

Any AMG
Can't beat a NA engine with near 500hp

The new AMGs are twin turbo... still got that sound tho, with way more torque
