really? Why? a used s2k goes for 20k, you would pay double that for the new one with the aero package and aluminum hardtop?

my choice? with out digging into it too much… off the top of my head this would be one of my choices:

$40K is a shitty # as it’s not a lot but not a little. Used Z06 or a M5.

ehh… I don’t know, for some reason I was stuck in the train of thought… “new car / no mods / this is what you get.” lol I didn’t even take into consideration a used car / mods, etc. So yea, I’m sure my choice would be different if I thought like you guys.

Hmmm… My exact thought process for essentially the last 6 months.

So many choices ranging from a '09 135i to a Hayabusa powered smart.
