Tried to think of a vehicle people wouldnt pick. I, however, would love a first gen BMW X6 xDrive50i.

Two vehicle garage . Both vehicles must make between 400 hp to 460 hp . They also need to be model year 2008 or newer . Your total budget is $60k .

* BONUS POINTS : Vehicles must be different bodystyles and from brands that originated from different CONTINENTS. *

I just want all of you to check out the amount of 400hp vehicles under a decade old between $20k and $35k. That said, enjoy yo’selves!

60k USD = 78k CAD

Let’s just round that up to 80k, just to make things a bit easier. So with a budget of 40 grand per car, this is what I found.

Audi S8. Complete with a Lamborghini V10. In a full size luxobarge. Yes please.

And, also from the VAG stable, a Porsche Cayenne S. 420 HP of pure German muscle. And a lovely blue colour too.

For my first choice, I’ll have a 2013 Ford Mustang Boss 302 in Gotta Have It Green because it’s my favorite Mustang next to the 2015 GT 50th Anniversary. It’s $36k with 444 hp.

And for my second choice, I’ll take the 2010 BMW 550i Gran Turismo because I’m like the only person who likes them. I really do love them. This one is $24k with 400 hp.

2008 M3 Coupe. $27,988 with 65,981 miles and a manual. It’s blue...

2013 ML 550 . $32,920 with 46,954 miles. (MY 2012 and up had 402hp)

You’ll need to haggle a little more than $450 off each to stay in budget.

Like For Canada said I’ll use 80k since I’m in Canada.

I start with a used 2015 Power Wagon for the off road, intimidating other cars, and making hybrids cry duties. It is going to set me back $48k . Nearly makes the cut at 410hp.

Now to fly to Germany and get a 2007 Audi RS4 for $31,000. It will give 420hp.

Now this is a hard one, especially with 2008- rule.

I’ll follow the bonus criteria as well.

HSV Clubsport, Estate, From Oceania.

BMW E92 M3, Coupé, From Europe.

I almost included an Evo FQ440, but it didn’t fit in the price bracket.

Hey Wobbles, I have an idea for your Dream Garage thing! I'm thinking that you should have to pick a modern car and an older variant of that car for under a certain price. Ex, Current Range Rover and an older RR. Or DB5 and DB11. I don’t really know how the price thing would work though...
