i said ''get it custom'' like in...put it in a tuning shop and choose your options...there are an infinite amount of customisation and upgrades that can be done to this car both aestetic and performance wise.

They guy/gal/kid is clueless.

 

You are right though, any ole shop can do upgrades and customizations. Any hick town in the middle of nowhere can do it.

GT350(r) would be an option if you don't like the ZL1.

Also like I said I want something that doesn't look like a regular 30K car. I don't want a race car or drag car.

What do you want then?

 

Go onto Kijiji or Craigslist or Autotrader websites and start filtering.

How many times do I have to tell you people that if I am spending 70K on a car I don't want it to be a car that anyone can buy from a dealer for 25K. I don't want a modded drag car. I want a car that is actually expensive.

Dealer prices go far above that. And it will still be like any other car. Maybe a Hyundai Accent is $25K new. Any decent new car is $50K min. and you are no different then your neighbor with the same car. Having all the options n shit, starts climbing fast. Go to any new car dealer lot.

 

So you want a custom paint job then, plus if you dont want it like any other car on the road, you need a body kit, and mods.

I do like the Guilia I have stated that many times. Like I have said it is too expensive, and I don't trust the brand yet. I understand that it is an incredible car. I am looking at used M3/M4s and C43 AMGs. Not a massive Caddy fan to tell you the truth.

what options are you getting?  the only package I'm seeing is basically the adaptive cruise control.  I mean adaptive cruise is pretty sweet but I wouldn't have any issues buying a QV without it.  really the only thing I'd add is a different color cause I hate that red it comes in standard.  Its also absurd that they charge to paint it a different color... but everyone is doing that these days in that price range

I was keeping the red, swapping the rims because I don't like the stock ones, then adding the upgraded speakers, and then the tech packages, and I added the carbon fiber steering wheel because literally everything else in that car inside and out is carbon fiber and it would be a sin to not complete the package.

AS I said.. RS3.. Luxury AF interior, and does not look much like the normal one. Also they make the 5pot Engine crackle and pop in stock form when you go into sport mode. Super quiet in normal mode.

I am going to have to respectfully ask you to no longer comment on this post. I have told you at least 5 times that I do not want mods and you continue to keep telling me to get them.

Actually I really like this thing. I might have to look at it.

lol, so basically the reverse of me... I got only the color, and you got everything besides the color (and seats)

@Max_Settings just checked it, $69 575 fully spec'd up, and you can get it for cheaper if you buy off the show floor and get what ever color they have in stock.

Just go watch some of the reviews. its a truely epic car. such USA only gets it in sedan as find the RS3 hatchback really unique and more practical. and this is from a guy who owns a A3.

Yeah I speced it out the way I want with basically everything besides the dynamic plus package and it is only 64K. That and the S5 I am seriously considering.

Not going to lie, not a huge Porsche fan, I respect the brand and I know they are incredible cars, but I have never really liked their styling. Hellcat is a stupid car, only made to go fast in a straight line, and is not versatile at all. One trick pony car. The ZL1 for instance is really fast in a straight line and is faster around Nurburing than something like a 570s, 

What if you got a used Dodge Viper?

Absolutely terrible car with terrible build quality and way overpriced. A 70K luxury car with a ton of parts borrowed out of the Dodge Dart. The market agrees because you can pick up a 2014 under 40K. Look at the panel gap between the door and B pillar. *notice you can see the white paint of the car through the gap.

Too basic, and the high end ones are too large.

Maybe a used one. However Jaguars loose money faster than the government at this point. A year old F-Type that was a 110K new, is now worth under 70K with less than 20K miles. I fear that in another year or two it will be worth in the 40-50K range.

What about Nissan X-Trail 2017? Or Lexus NX200t?
