So I sold some Bitcoin today near its peak. I have about $5k to play with. Let’s find something interesting to drive/play with. Bonus points it is already in great shape for DD-duties/is manual/has more than 250hp/weighs less than 3500lbs.

DD-duties/is manual/has more than 250hp/weighs less than 3500lbs.

You could buy a LS engine and a really strong skateboard to roll it around on

A little short on horsepower, but that’s easy to solve. The thing is; MANUAL IS300!!!

This is the right answer.

Nice! Near its peak? You hope! =)

What price did you buy in at? I remember when it was first announced/released. Kicking myself for not buying $20 worth...

Driving a mini cooper S a while back really stuck with me. It was a fun little car. They are a little down on power but also low on weight. I think with $5k you could get something in the sweet spot where they ironed out the kinks of the first gen but before they put in the crappy engine of the second gen. I think it’s 2004-06 but double check.

That manual s60 R and black 03 GTI, but that s40 seems fucky with only one picture and especially not from the front or of interior.

What are your thoughts? That S60 worth offering $2k for?

I also like that Outback, that could be an actual one i could get the wife to okay.

it is a hard pass on all of them, if i had a gun to my head, i guess the alfa, because i was prepared to burn the money i put into bitcoin anyway.

Well I already reinvested, but when I pull out again for real, I want to get the wife, MIL and baby on a cruise. And the rest, sadly will become lunch and /or project money for my SO to spend at her whim.

RIP My time and effort getting to this point.
