Typically, I wouldn't think of the average American being able to pop out $170 grand for a car. I'm not doubting that he can't afford it, there is a small handful of upper-crusters here, but when I think of modern Aston Matin being thought of as affordable, I get confused.

    Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo (low miles and in great condition).

    alas I am a poor college student, still looking for my first car, will probably be a 240sx or a sentra se-r.

    I would purchase a Noble M400 or M12 to build here in the states. And drive it and race on the weekends. Sounds reasonable to me, but I still have yet to find almost 80,000 laying around.

    It's the first car on the page, the yellow Red Rose spec. Absoultely gorgeous

    Ok, it was the first one on the page...but when I looked today it's gone! It was a yellow Tuscan S Red Rose for £22,995 with 15k miles on the clock. Autotrader shows how little you have to spend to get something sensational like this.

    figuring on AUD$25000

    id probably get a nice early model nissan 240z with awesome suspension work and a mild tune rb25det skyline engine. It would be an absolute weapon on the track.
    Optionally i'd get a shabby looking datsun 1600 with a wild sr20det in it and stock rims with skinny tires on it, just to freak Commodore divers out at the lights.
