what to buy with a 200k sports car budget?

im not really a convertible guys so this hard. But i think id have to go with a Porsche GT2 and Honda S2000.

 

1994-8 Lambo Diablo, 2005 BMW 645i Conv.

 

For the Coupe I would get a Nissan 350Z and for the convertible I would get a 360 Spider, Rosso Corsa.

OR

For the coupe a 360 Modena, Rosso Corsa and for the convertible a Honda S2000.

 

Hmmm...for the coupe I'd get a DB9 (to also be used as a daily driver), and for the weekend I'd have a 328 or 348.

 

'99 355 Spyder and '96 456

'03 Maserati Spyder GT and '99 Ferrari 550

'01 Modena Coupe and '03 BMW M3 Convert.

 

BMW M3 Coupe 2004 SMGII

Ferrari 360 Spyder 2001+- with F1

Should just about total up to $200K, right?

 

Ultima GTR and F355 Spider or Gallardo.

Alternatively for $200k one could buy a used C-5 Z06, Viper, 350Z, MR-2 MkII turbo, Supra TT, 540i 6sp, and a bunch of other old sports cars.

Or wait and snatch up a Murcielago Roadster when it gets below $200k.

 

2006 Aston Martin V8 Coupe (coming out soon)

1998 Ferrari 355 Spider

 

Diablo 6.0 and Alfa Romeo Spider.

 

'97/'98 355 Spider
'98/'99 550

 

2000(or older version) Ferrari 360 with a novitec Rosso tuning kit. Thta would be 200k or less?

 

Here are my thoughts, although i appreciate that this comes down to a matter of taste and priorities:
first, no new cars- let the first guy take the hit;
In the same spirit, i think the 360 will continue to sink in value, so i'll propose something older by far- 512BBi, or possibly, clean Daytona. Granted, the latter will cost you and leave not as much change as you'd probably like (40 grand left, let's say); the Boxer, a really good one, fully fettled late model injected car or restored 365, i'm guessing, 100k.
What to do with the balance?
Well, if i'm going for a convertible, i'd go for a real bugs in the teeth one, old fashioned, say a 60's Morgan 4 with weber carbs- You might even be able to do the Daytona and the Morgan as a package deal.
If you went with the Boxer, you could buy the Morgan and still have enough to buy a restored 73 911 RS clone, or an older Porsche convertible. In fact, if you let me do the negotiations, i might be able to sneak a motorcycle into the mix, as well....

 

Ultima Can-Am (around 40 grands with a decent engine, I guess)
Morgan +8, used, runs around 40-50k tops
For fun typical of a car-nut cars.

And a Volks Phaeton V10TDi for the dreadfully boring highway cruiser ... can't be more than 100k ...

 

Only two....for $200k, boy you could buy a host of cars for that money.


but, mine would be

DB9
&
Countach 86 Down draft

 

F355 Spider and a Diablo.

Forza,
Kevin

 

Challenge Stradale and a miata (used and with no wheels or motor if necessary)

 

SL65... 190k, but both coupe and convertible

Hmm well I'd say more realistically an Elise and a 360. How much are 550s these days? If I could slip into that I would... well, no, I'd take the 360 over that.

 

a miles Strad for 185 and a jeep for 15

 

I would have to first select the 512TR for the coupe, then with the app. 105k left over maybe go for the Maserati convertible? I am not much for convertibles, so my choice ther would be less important to me. I might be inclined to go for the Panoz AIV Roadster (it is very distinctive and might be a good driver).

On second thought can my convertible be like the slutmobile of WilliamH (512M twin turbo convertible)?

M3 coupe
F360 Spidey

I could prolly get these used for about US200 - maybe a little more.

 

Oh that's easy.

Lamborghini Diablo and a SL55 AMG. Both used of course.
