Isn't there a dearth of choices in this price bracket?

Re: What car would you get for $250-350k?

I would buy a merc sl350


however as toto mentioned...there are a lot of other decisions that go with buying a car....
i.e size, family, performance etc.

Re: What car would you get for $250-350k?

I know there are alot of choices - sedan et al....but more curious on what "you" would want to drive....I can only choose a Cayman-S, Masserati Qporte, a 2nd hand 360.....

Miu
If u r still a big fan of the blue-roundel....Get a 6-er, Hamann Kit it. It's gorgeous.
630 will be good enough.

If not...
Either a 6mth old Maserati Gransport ( bloody hard to come by as there are less than 5 so far I think)
Or if not, can't go wrong with Cayman S.
Forget Noble n Lotus (tho fast , they aint practical for your daily driving)

miu,

IMO, skip the Cayman la.... like wat Jeremy Clarkson said... its a 'delilberated in betwwen' of a Boxster n 911... Top it up a bit n just get a 996 turbo n if not a 996 C4s will do swee swee....

ps: think a used 360 is still way beyond 350k la...

bro... how much u letting go of ur topless M? PM me leh...

Re: What car would you get for $250-350k?

touring car....i will negotiate a maser gransport to 350k. or wait for a jack of all trades new m3.

track car....cayman-s will do just fine...but this car has a big problem...in auto mode its 5 gears. i hv tried it 3x so far...i cant get rid of one nagging feeling. the gearing far too long as it is 5 speed. u drive to sepang n b4 track opens u hv a splittiing headache. the engine will drone all the way behind ur head all the 300km up. a 6 gear box wud just be perfect. pity....

for boss-man car i wud get the QP...no brainer to me...but i cant understand why anyone wud wanna buy a 7s or s-class...when they can get this m5 beating baby...

heh its a porsche. as long as they keep putting the engine in the rear, they should always be sold with panadol extra strong.

Yes. It's ard $335k. The SLK350 is abt $240k. 0-100 i think is 4.9s and 5.5s respectively. Jus the shifters can be '+' and '-' on both sides...diff for the SLK55AMG. bodykit diff also.Can't buy the SLK55AMG kit off C&C less for repairs.

Oso, no one seems to be sellin this car 2nd hand ah? Launched more than 1 year already.

But the SL350 I last saw $390K. 0-100 7.2s. Azriel confirm?
