But you don't have prestige of owning a Ferrari or Maserati.

What would I pick? Probably the 348TS. Don't care if its not that fast, it looks awesome.

For DD and best car all around? Boss 302, all the way. No contest.

Boss 302, because it'll just work. Hoon it, DD it, trackday it, garage queen it, whatever. That style Maserati doesn't do anything for me, the Ferrari is asking for trouble. The Aston is would be my second choice. But still, I drove a Boss 302 briefly while working for a Ford dealer...so I'll take that one.

Cheap maintenance, patriotism, patriotism again, speed, side exhaust

I'd pick the Aston. For a DD and overall. However, assuming running costs are a factor, the Boss,

Soloburrito > Cherry_man1

Boss to DD because it's new and most reliable. Also has lowest ownership costs.

I already have a Mustang though so I'd go with the 348 in a heartbeat.

None. Corvette (yes, I'm that guy)

302 All the way. Great for DD, cheaper to repair than the others and it's not nearly as fragile. Did I mention 302? 302.

William Byrd > Cherry_man1

Trust me the Ferrari is tempting, I'm a Ferrari guy. The Maser, not really. Not a big fan of that era. A newer one, sure! The Aston would have a better shot at my garage. In the end, I like reliability over prestige so I'm fine with my horse being horizontal on the grill.

Gonna be a crazy person and say DD the DB7. The ferrari is too old to be reliable while the maserati is too italian.

But the DB7 was popular enough to find spare parts easily and the mileage is low. It'll still be expensive as hell to maintain, but you could probably get away with adding 30k miles in 3 years without losing your first born child. And then you'll probably get about the same back in resale. Whereas the Boss will have the lower maintenance but depreciation will fucking suck.

The Mustang is clearly the winner, newest/fastest/most reliable

The Ferrari might be worth it if it was a 355, the Aston is pretty compelling, and the Maserati the ugly one.

Boss 302, hands down.

I've never been really attracted to Ferraris that much. They look cool, sound amazing (see also: Maserati) but I can't imagine the nightmare servicing or even driving one, being worried about every thing in every situation (I know myself, and I would be).

The Mustang? Ah fuck it, it's a Ford, let's run the snot out of it!!

Comes down to DB7 versus Boss 302. The Aston is nice, but I would prefer it to be a few years newer (of course, that means more expensive). So I would take the Mustang. (Full disclosure: I love Mustangs.)

I think the maintenance costs of DDing a Ferrari would ultimately be outrageous. Of course, that also depends on how long your commute is. But putting 10-15k miles on a Ferrari every year strikes me as a recipe for outlandish maintenance costs.

I'm in college it will be a short commute to and from school maybe 10-15 min tops

Actually really want one. A white 2012. It's plenty powerful, more reliable, better looking (my opinion), and still unique.
