So I plan to be rich later this year.

 

School me on what car to buy.

 

Criteria:

 

1 - no cheap shit

2 - sedan (maybe, I don't know, fuck it, whatever)

3 - dashboard cant be "hotizontally-ish" I hate that, and no wood, grandma

4 - lots of doodads/screens to play with inside

5 - ridiculously powerful sound system w lots of input options

6 - warranty

7 - 450+hp min (not going down from my V - although if you suggest a really light car I'm in)

8 - may be commuter

9 - auto

10 - AWD if I can get it, RWD w tits stability control if not

 

Do you like the look of the 2015 Dodge Charger?

According to the five year plan released a few weeks ago, there will be a supercharged V8 SRT version, using the Hellcat, which is rumored to be anywhere from 640-700 HP.

 

1- won't be cheap

2 - sedan

3 - dashboard is curved around driver (a little). No wood.

4 - lots of doodads/screens to play with inside - the cluster is a configurable display and UConnect is an 8.4 inch touchscreen interface.

5 - Beats by Dre sound

6 - warranty

7 - rumored 640 to 700 HP

8 - may be commuter

9 - auto

10 - RWD w tits stability control

Yup.

 

That fucker is going to be a flash away from 500whp

 

I expect the next V will step its game up, or else it will be losing. It had better come with the same LT4 as the Z06, in which case it should be over that mark from the factory.

I've looked at Jags, BMWs, Maseratis, Mercedes, Audi, The 300 SRT8 (yeah I know), 2014 Stingrays (I know its not a sedan, fuck off), Cobras, wait-n-see on the next V, WRXs, EVOs, Teslas, Camaros, Rolls, etc etc etc

 

I just can't find anything that gets me interested, much less excited. It is sad.

 

Help. I'm afraid if I can't find a hot car to lust for, my midlife crisis penis will fall off.

 

Newer 997 Turbo?

 

Definitely meets criteria 1, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

 

I'm not sure if I understand criteria 3, 4, and 5, so I don't know if it meets those.

 

Criterion 2 didn't seem to be that big of a deal, so because it's not a sedan doesn't mean it's a deal breaker.

 

It screams I'm rich and will fully engorge your midlife crisis penis.

I dont think you're asking too much in all your requirements but from what i can deduce you want something not-boring & unique but w/ lots to tech. equip.

 

If youre looking unique i'd go with an older, well maintained Porsche...back to basics, analog & experience. It'll be interesting to you and people who know cars...fuck everyone else.

 

Newer is, mostly, boring (hyper-cars not withstanding). 997 or if you want people driving next to you go blind, the panamara. From there depending on budget R8, ford GT, Maserati...

 

i dunno just buy the batmobile.

Looks good, but not sure if it beats an RS7 or Porsche Panamara.

 

Wouldn't beat the Panamera, how is Panamera vs RS7?

 

I just think the Rapide is the most beautiful 4 door car ever created. It's the first "4-door coupe" style car that actually looks more like a coupe than a 4 door. And I love the rear command center style. And it's an Aston, it's not boring or common.

If Sedan and AWD is a must:

Panamera Turbo - seriously go drive one they are ugly to most but AMAZING cars

RS7

 

If Sedan and RWD is acceptable:

M5 - new turbo version

E63 - new turbo version

 

If coupe:

997 Turbo - need 2010+ to get modern electronics you are looking for. Porsche is notoriously behind on electronics I had to add bluetooth and Sirius modules on our '07 to get streaming music to the OEM Nav / head unit.

No idea but it would probably come down to personal preference at that point. If it came down to those two I would probably pick a blue RS7 with a reflash. With a Panamara I would probably just play with my rear spoiler in my driveway.
