want to buy a new car but I really don't know much about them or what to get so I'm looking for suggestions/opinions
>got 60k
>paying all cash
>looking for a 4 door
>something sexy
>reliable as fuck
>I was planning on getting a Mercedes but heard they breakdown a lot and are expensive to fix, same goes with BMW and Audi, can you confirm?
>Something that caught my eye was the Lexus IS 250 but heard they got discontinued, is the IS 300 a continuation of that car or what? Thoughts on car?
I'm really retarded with cars and was wondering what you guys think

>>I was planning on getting a Mercedes but heard they breakdown a lot and are expensive to fix, same goes with BMW and Audi, can you confirm?
Mercedes were good up until 1994. BMW has always been a meme machine. Audi is just rebranded VW.
How about try Google first retard, the 300 came BEFORE the 250.

I figured much, thoughts on lexus?
>>15818206
Again im a noob with cars, so what would be the 2016 version of a 250?
>>15818215
200t/300/350 is newest
Old 250 is boring as shit
Old 300 has an NA 2JZ with a manual option so do with that what you wish
>>15818223
So which car would you reccomend from that list? Want something new, fast, sexy
>>15818257
why do you need 4 doors? just get an original nsx or the fastest 911 with low mileage you can afford.
>>15818257
If it were me I'd take 8 grand of that and buy the cleanest 2005 IS300 I can possibly find, then build up the 2JZ in it and finally tarbo. Spend the remaining 40-45k on making it perfect.

>I want to buy a new car but dont know what to get, need suggions
>15818161
There is no one perfect car, and you may own many different types of cars during your life.
You'll have a much better idea of what sort of car you want after owning one for a year.
So buy something reliable and easy to re-sell, like a Honda Civic or Ford Focus, should be under $25K after insurance, registration, taxes, etc..
Keep the other $35K in the bank.
When you want to upgrade then sell your old car, and buy something else. Repeat.

Because I like how the car looks and I'm a college student so car pooling with my lads is something I'm always pulling. 2 door cars are inconvenient
>>15818309
>60k
>in college
sure buddy
shut up and buy a civic for 3k.
>>15818292
Why not just GTE swap? Sure it'd be twice as costly but he gets way the fuck more headroom for power gains before even building up the internals. For a budget build, sure. GE block is still good to 500-ish horsepower.
>>15818161
Definitely get the is300, is good and reliable or an infiniti those are god tier too
>>15818200
>audi
>rebranded WV
I know what you mean, but anyone who says stupid shit like this obviously doesn't know shit about what they're talking about, so you are the last person I would trust.
>>15818307
I understand there is no perfect ride, I already own a car myself, Dodge Charger 2010 and I'm selling it to get a new car so I know what you mean. But I don't want something like a Honda or Civic cause the looks don't appeal to me, looks really basic and I don't really find them interesting looking.
>>15818327
question, is the IS 350 a continuation of the 300 or a separate thing? Would the 350 be considered better? Spec wise. What Infiniti would you suggest?
>>15818316
Not everyone in college is broke lol, civic just don't look appealing and its basic as fuck
>>15818382
you're basic as fuck. fits you perfectly.
you'll need that money to buy a house somewhere after you graduate.
>>15818389
I'm actually living really comfy in my mamas house, don't really have any reason to leave yet, just saving up my cash
>>15818206
op is talking about the new 300 retard
>>15818161
just go for the 350 f sport if money doesn't matter much, it is faster than the other models. Idk why they feel the need to have 3 different motors in one market for the IS now, and that's without the ISF.
>>15818334
But you do know what I mean
>has $60k
>comes to /o/ to ask what he should buy
>>15818469
Yea I was looking into the f sport version, looked interesting. What would consider from the 3:
>350 f sport, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo, or Subaru WRX STI?
>>15818604
I guess the lexus, don't know enough about the other two.
If I had 60k to spend on cars I'd probably get a used 350 or something similar and then spend the rest on a shitbox for me to have fun with.
>>15818425
Well keep fucking saving, and buy a $260k three bedroom house with cash. I understand living with your parents to save money but wasting it on a car that will lose most of what you put into it defeats the entire purpose, which is building the biggest fucking head start you possibly can.
>>15818161
240i 6MT
>>15818161
you can always go the hatchback route
>VW golf R
>Ford Focus RS/ST
>I'm new to cars guys rofl
>I'm at college too haha
>I live with mama and want to save cash hehe
>did I mention I want to spend 60 fucking grand on a car lmao
What a shit thread
business idea
buy the car using credit and invest the rest in car loan backed securities
