Wow 3000 is considered "light weight"......my nascar weighs 3500 race ready with the driver and its considered a tank.....and, I took 240lbs of lead out of the left frame rail......so, I weigh 230, took 240 lbs out.....I guess I can say its "light weight" too....heh heh
And jeeze....if I put in a $13,000 drive train consisting of an now obsolete 800hp sb2 and a Jerico 4 spd transmission I could give it a run in the top speed dept....I dug around the web and found my actual car qualified at Michigan at 178 mph in 2001 so he was prob touching 200 on the straights.....so there you have it...buy a Chevy!
Oh and handling.....we dont need no stinking handling!

Cars do absolutely nothing for me. You can get a nice enough car for $50k. All other money should be spent on boats and chicks or you're just wasting resources.

But in S. Florida a Kia isn't going to reel in the ladies the way a 458 Ferrari would (my buddy got one yesterday and feels like a celebrity).
50K would get you a new Corvette, slightly used M3, 911 or 650 convertible so you can still get a lot of bang for the buck.
That being said, my last car was a new 02 M3 convertible and I sold it because I wasn't driving it much. My wife's last remarkable car was her 04 A8L and then she wanted an SUV for kids/dog etc. There are two GMC's in my driveway today...purposeful but not exciting!
