If you had $20,000, what car(s) would you buy? Many miatas? Old Alfa? Cheap GT40 replica? Several fiero? A corolla? Let's see.

At the moment, a lightly used Audi A3 TDI. I know it doesn't come in my perfect configuration (TDI, Manual, Quattro) but that's what I want today.
My decision subject to change in about an hour...

I'd pay off the wife's Soul then put the rest (~5k) down on a nice 3 hatch. Does that count?

Congrats! I always get vicariously excited for fellow car nuts when they get to bring a new one home!
Specs?

My father's been driving one of these for 8 years now, and has LOVED every single second of it.
Maintenance hasn't even been that bad. It's a BMW, so when it breaks, it's expensive, but hardly anything has gone wrong with it at all since he's owned it.

Peugeot 406 coupe V6 with an LPG gas conversion as a daily driver, Matra Murena as a fun sporty weekend car and a Citroën CX GTi as a comfy cruiser.

My eyes scanned your comment and thought they saw "soul patch" and immediately kept moving.

Thanks! It's an 08 with the six-speed manual with 65k miles. It's literally got twice the power of my outgoing civic, plus all the toys I wanted like dual AC, leather, etc. Expect a super-biased Oppo review once I take it home!

I'd either get a 911 at right around 20K or I'd get a 944 turbo in tough shape and spend the rest of the money restoring/enhancing it.

Hell yeah! Many many many congratulations to you, and I'd light your cigar if you had one.
Man, that thing sure is a beauty, inn't it? Phew. Why did Acura ever depart from that brand look?

Well, I said it once, I'll say it again.
A used Z4 with under 50k miles. Preferably a 3.0i, likely before 2006. - Can be had for about $16k
$4k left?
Gimme an old Isuzu Rodeo for me to play with. I see these things all the time, do they actually die?

Haha no smoking in my new car!
As our fellow Opponaut El-Uly stated, the TL-s is the e39 of Acura.

I can assure you that my wife does not have a soul patch and if she did I would not be concerned with paying it off.

Id probably drop it all in my Z..or, trade the Z with some of the 20 k for a e30 m3? :P

It would have to be this, I love all cars but I have a soft spot of American cars (considering I'm American). The Challenger RT just has to much character, you have to love the fat old beast

14k - AP1 S2000, because 9000 Rpms

Let's see...
- This 1990 Grand Wagoneer for $10,500.
- This Miata for $3,500.
- This 1969 Coronet for a restoration project later on down the road for $4,000.
- Two fix-er-upper AMC Eagles (an '85 and an '86) for $1,600.
- And just enough left over for a PS4, or some parts to fix up the Coronet and Eagles.

Well they sell them as a kit car .. there was one on NPCP awhile back for dirt cheap like 12k maybe .. Obviously this one is no bitch so I would expect this one to be around 25-30 .. a "base" model you could probably pick up for 20...

Over $20k turn-key/in non-questionable build form, but excellent choice regardless.

A Jag XJR, and an aftermarket warranty. You can get a nice XJR for about £2500 over here, so there ought to be enough left for the warranty, just about.
