I buy a gun for $500 dollars and put the other $19,500 towards gas.

Now all cars are free and you can't not have fun in a stolen car.

Ducati Supersport S
Comfortable enough for touring and fast enough to have more fun than any car in this thread.
OP said nothing about it having to be a car.

>>17349174
But he said reliable.

Although a duc is reliable, in not working.

>>17349175
Eh my 848 evo hasn't been that bad. You've just gotta be willing to be really on top of the routine maintenance.

>>17349182
I prefer my bike not giving a fuck about being 17k km later for the small service that has to be done every 10k km.
>>
>>17349190
And I prefer having a bike that doesn't just sound like another bleeehh inline 4. Plus it looks so much better than any of the Japanese bikes. All the other euro makes are pretty similar in dependence on regular maintenance, and at least it's more reliable than the MV Agusta I had before it.
>>
>>17349204
I don't have a i4, but a Euro flat twin.
It doesn't give a fuck about regular maintenance, just remember to carry oil as it will burn oil at high revs.
>>
>>17349211
BMW Something RT/GS?
Ehhh, I dunno. The guys that I know that have BMWs(admittedly they are they S1000R/RRs) haven't seemed to think the maintenance is any better than a Triumph or Ducati.
>>
>>17348971
Nice my boi
>>
>>17349240
R1150GS

The S1000 is a different machine completely. Way more performance oriented.
They have almost 200hp from a 1000cc i4, I get 80hp from 1130cc.

The R1200 needs more maintenance too, or the computer will scream at you.

12k for the car in good condition, 7k for repairs and some decent mods, 1k for a roadtrip through Italy.
>Why?
Because this car is a legend, I can do all repairs by my self, huge fun to drive, legendary 6 cylinder engine and you don't look like a massiv faggot in a new BMW

Or you could buy a 15y/o used car or two wheel death-machine like other anons suggested.

since I'm on the subaru train atm, rust free gen 3 legacy, swap in all the STI parts from the gen 4(except struts), respray since they're getting old now and none have decent paint anymore, drop in a forester power plant(EJ255v2), outback struts with custom springs for high travel with low spring rate, 1" subframe lift to make ground clearance and lower the center of gravity to where it was.

AE86 Trueno hatch in blue, with a 20V blacktop head and individual throttle bodies.

Not even memeing, I would pick an AW11 but I'd prefer FR to MR for daily and I still want a RWD 4AGE.
