I would like everyone's opinion
-
used kenworth with a hauler $125,000
geo metro or 1985 civic wagon
wissota late model
the rest would be fuel money -
I cant believe only one person mentioned a Skyline....... at least he picked the best one you could get..... for shame...
99 Skyline GT-R + Mods 200,000 AKA Fun Car
05 Evo + mods 50,000 AKA Daily Driver
Done. -
Import a Subaru Impreza STi Spec-C set it up for Tarmac Rally racing.
Fully enclosed race trailer with generator and tools.
2005 Dodge Cummins turbo diesel with Banks Siderwinder kit
And the rest would be for fixing the subaru, paying for fuel, and my trips around the country to different races. ( the money would run out, but having an STi spec-C doing tarmac rally racing... your going to grab some sponsors somewhere )

Ariel Atom... just because...
With whatever's left over I think I'd try to find a FIA Rally-Spect WRC Evo 6.5... Either that or just import an Evo 6 TME and drop a few grand into that and buy a normal evo for a daily driver...
Or the Koenigsegg... yeah... that'd be sweet...
P.S. Anyone seen the Top Gear where he drove the Atom? A-freaking-mazing...

Well me, I always try to lean toward something a little different, something you don't see every day. It's a name we all know and love but it's type that's rarely seen.
Two words: "Oldschool" Skyline
Plus I'm sure I'd a few bucks left to build a garage to keep it in.

yes the CCR is a great car, and top speed wise you are probably correct, it would be a stretch for the Viper to reach that speed without carefully designed aerodynamics, but for the $250000 price ceiling, the Viper gets my money.
if I had unlimited resources I'd get a Bugatti Veyron. Quad turbo W16! 987 SAE HP. Projected top speed (with specially developed tires) 253mph.
