A pretty decent way to spend a hundred bags if you ask me! Although I'm not too sure about the Cayenne either; I'd probably go for an X6 just to annoy people.
Unfortunately my dog wouldn't be able to stand up in the back of an X6 (she's a Dogue de Bordeaux) and I'm not a fan of BMW X cars, I've driven the new Cayenne and really liked it but it's a bit pricey for this excercise.Skylinecrazy said:
Driven one and been in several on both road and track. Would have an R34 instead.
It's more of a machine (with the computers doing everything) than an enthusiasts car IMO. Great car and the perfect daily, but would not have one as a weekend toy.
I see your point, but I've never had the pleasure of driving an R34. I have driven the R35 for a few weeks and I just loved it. I loved how it was out of character for my normal tastes and I loved how it was just a bit mental compared to other cars I've driven in that price range. It couldn't be a daily though, for that I'd may as well just got for a DB9, Bentley GT or the utterly flawless 996 turbo. It's all hypothetical and in the name of fun anyway. I know that if I really had £100k to whizz up the wall on cars if just go buy an SLS or similar but that's the kind of money waster I am in real life. I'm a real sucker for them!It's more of a machine (with the computers doing everything) than an enthusiasts car IMO. Great car and the perfect daily, but would not have one as a weekend toy.

A boring and uninspiring list IMHO, and not a proper sports car in sight.
Maybe it's now, "How much dull grey porridge can you buy with £100k."
Have you driven / been in a GTR? It's capabilities are astounding and not a proper sports car? I'm sorry but that is nonsense, maybe you mean not a purists car but not a sports car?!Maybe it's now, "How much dull grey porridge can you buy with £100k."
Plus how can you call a S63 dull?
edit: terrible spelling.

I don't like the dull MB styling.roy c said:
I'm sure it's a great car, but IMHO it's a coupe, not a sports car.
I know what you're saying and I understand, but, for me, the GT-R ticked all the boxes when I drove it - it was quick enough and crazy enough to be an absolute blast round The 'Ring but you wouldn't go deaf or break your back on the drive there and back...i get it's not a purists choice, but i'm not a purist, i'm just a fan of big and fast.
