Because of the bias towards 'Japanese' cars on this forum, mainly due to more people owning these. It got me thinking of a couple of questions.


If you had 150k budget to buy one car what would you buy ?

And would it be Japanese ?

I myself would have an Aston Martin Vanquish, probably couldnt get a new one for this price but a nice secondhand one.

So for me thats not Japanese.

Nissan Skyline R34 Z-Tune.
One of the greatest cars ever produced due to the development and no expense spared attitude of Nissan.

Mine would be a Lambo, infact any model would do but the Murchelago is my favourite.

And Gareth thought I would choose an R32 Calsonic !!.

Koeniggseggs start at 300k unfortunately. Otherwise it would have been my choice - Ive been in one and they are surprisingly roomy !!

If it had to be just one car then probably a Ferrarri 288GTO, or maybe its son the F40, these cars are so much more intense than modern stuff.

If it had to be modern then probably a Murcielago.

But if it was my 150k then I would probably go back to what I used to have.....

Audi Allroad
R34GTR with 600+
Driftcar
Evo
Land Rover
Van for work !!
