Whats a good sports car under $80,000?

(2011-03-01 15:30:20) 1. Jane Says: I saw a few ferrari 360's under 80 but i also like porsche caymans. Any idea what kind of car i should get. I want something that will turn heads2. Alec Says: Personally with that money I would go with a Nissan GTR 2009 or 2010. They turn heads! And you can get them for like 60k-ish now. The rest of the money would have to go to mods. Exhaust and paint is all you need. Maybe a rear seat delete with a carbon fiber fill in. :)
Ferrari 360s are nice, my dream car when I was a kid in fact, but they are outdated! When you roll up next to a new 458 you'll start crying when they speed off before your traction control knows what to do. Porsche Caymans are nice, but too slow for their price. Lambos can't turn.
New Mazzies are out of your range.
Or you could get a 94-97 Supra, ship it to Top Secret in Japan, let them mod it to 1200hp and ship it back!3. The Champ Says: I would build a fleet:
Lotus Espirit (or one of many alternatives)
2003 Jaguar XJR
A decent 4X4 truck
and several motorcycles.

But if I had to pick one new sports car with a max price of 80K, Id go for a new Vette I guess, maybe a Porsche Boxster Spyder, Id have to test drive them first.4. Charles Says: Hell for that money if it where me Id get a nice simple sports car for like $30,000 and customize the crap out of it with the $50,000 you have left. But that's just me lol If you want a car that's off the bat an eye catcher Id try to find a Lotus Exige S 240. This is what they look like.

You can definitely find them for under $80,000 (most likely used) and trust me you don't see them too often on the streets. Its a car that will really turn heads for the way it looks and sounds.5.
