First of all, this is for a friend of mine, not me. He currently drives an '09 M3, but claims it isn't fast enough. I don't really get that, but whatever. He's fallen in love with the CLK63 AMG Black, but at about 75k GBP second hand they're slightly above what he wants to spend. What is there out there that's faster than an M3 in the 50-60k area? Second hand. Oh I almost forgot, and this is probably the hardest bit, he wants something fairly low key looking. As in like the M3 or the Merc, would just appear to be a fairly regular car to someone who wasn't very clued up on cars. There's a pretty big difference in wages where he works, and he'd rather not rub peoples faces in it.
Audi RS4. he needs a reality check if he thinks an M3 is slow though. He could possibly pick up a Porsche for his price range.

Actually now I think about it it's probably because he's wanting to do some of those races around Europe. You know, Gumball type things, with lots of ludicrous cars, and then champagne orgy's at night.
And he can't do that with M3 because.... ?ghettoperson wrote:

No, I don't need an attitude adjustment. You just need to fuck off.
mmm RS4 then. Also if he doesn't want to be splashing his cash, they can look fairly discrete.ghettoperson wrote:

Yeah RS4/RS6 does sound pretty good.
Definitely the RS4. Or else an older Hartge/Dinan BMW. Just avoid the ones with stripes.
I like pie.
above is a pic of someone who thought they were speed king in a R8, please tell your mate to be careful and if he's going to be daft not to take anyone with him

G37
330 hp
0-60 in 5 seconds
And he'd have $40k to spare.

Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it
But it's also half a second slower to 60, and has about 100 less horsepower.King_County_Downy wrote:

how fast does he have to drive? is he going to race it or is it some small penis thing?
As I said, I think he's planning on doing a Gumball Rally type event. And track days and things like that.
Because he'd be laughed at and look like a chump.Eifa wrote:

As he would in a RS4 as well. You need to have something with some character for those sort of events. Something pretty. Not a bland but superfast saloon car.

You can easily take that car up up and away with aftermarket performance parts.
500+HP easily.

TBH it's a fairly impossible criteria, so I think he's just going for fast.
get a hybrid or electric you earth hating cunts.
Balls to not rubbing people's faces in it. Tell him to get the car he wants and buy a daily shitter for work if he's bothered about it. Britain is a strange country when it comes to things like that.
If he insists though, maybe a V10 M6? IMO the M3 is the best in its class so it's hard to say.

Does he want to put time and effort into the car or just drive it as is?ghettoperson wrote:

There's a lot of cars that could be done up right under the hood and still look like a daily driver.
If he wants fast out of the box, he's going to need to spend more. A lot more.
Or he could go Porsche. But those are pretty ordinary.

Get a decent Toyota Supra and spent the remaining money on modifications. There are many ways of boosting performance without spending a dime.
Yeah if he's going for modding, look at Monaros. Good looking but don't give much away if you don't know what one is, V8 and sounds epic. Very good modding community also and when done properly it's awesome. There's a yellow Monaro in some magazines running around 700bhp last time I read about it.

Can probably get a V8 R8 for similar money if he mans up and decides other peoples opinions can go fuck themselves.Toilet Sex wrote:
