I think you guys should do a series of these at different price points... $125k, $150k, $200k, etc. It would be interesting to see how your choices would evolve with increasing budgets.

@@danger450NOOOOOOO it's not. $100,000 when you are broke is owning a small house or lifting you out of poverty. $100,000 as a billionaire is pocket change, you could buy 3 Lamborghinis for like $250,000 and not blink.
@@danger450 This statement is both true and false. While the intrinsic value of $100k is $100k. However, the value given to it differs from person to person, depending on their given financial circumstance and other potential factors. For example: a highly nutritious meal to an average person is fine, but give to some who had not eaten food for a week may prove fatal. The sudden introduction of excessive nutrients after having not eaten for days is ill-advised, as it most likely will cause refeeding syndrome. This is why gorging food after several days of no food is a bad idea. So while one thing can hold the same intrinsic value, how it is valued from person to person isn't always the same. Also, you may have missed the joke.
I've daily driven a Viper for over 15 years. I've burned my leg once. You do it once and you'll never do it again! Doug's right! Passengers burn there legs all the time !😂
1. Last generation Lincoln Town Car 2. Late model Toyota 4Runner TRD Off Road 3. ND2 Mazda MX-5. All super reliable, cheap to maintain and I'm well under $100K.
Solid picks but i’ll swap the miata with a 996 gt3. Seems way overbudget but i’ve found a work around : 1. Lincoln town car from a used fleet (there is an rcr video of it, you can get it for 1900$) 2. Toyota 4runner Sr5, one sold just recently on cars n bids for 5500$ 3. 996 gt3, high milage (70k miles), 85-90000$ No late model cars but i think i got all bases covered.

The Viper is my dream car. I could stop right there. I tried to get one several years ago. It was a 2004 or 2005 from a seller in CT. If I remember correctly, it had ~13K miles and was selling for ~$35K. The jerk seller never answered my e-mails. One day I will own one.
I had a similar story, a 2013 in 2019 5000 miles, $74000, gonna be my 40th bday pressie to myself, wife got pregnant decided to hold off for 5 years, little did I know that not even a year later the same car would almost double in price. Still hurts to think about
I worked for years to build mine and finally just put it together. 1. 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Orvis Edition 2. 2003 Jaguar XJR (Red) 3. 2003 996 Targa (the blue one that didn’t meet reserve on Card & Bids) I’m in love with each for how unusual and cool they all are.
2022 Chevy Bolt EV. 2012 Suburban-2500hd. As much Mercedes-benz SL with the remaining money.... easy win, although I could trade the SL for as much porsche as I could afford
@@egold2071 until 70k miles when everything drivetrain wise gives up. I've had a 7, an s class, an xj, and an LS430 all in the 2000s. The xj was a mechanical mess at 70k miles. The s class was my favorite, but the check engine light was on since new and mercedes could never fix it. The 7 was like driving anything else on the road. The lexus is the best choice, hands down, no questions asked. I will say the XJ was gorgeous and classy inside and out, when ford owned jaguar they should have put the town car drive train in it vs jaguar trash in all of the ford's. It doesn't matter how fancy it is if you can't use it
38 year old here that just bought a '96 Viper GTS. Was always my favorite car as a kid. Purchased it as a 3rd vehicle to just enjoy when I can. Definitely impractical and hard to fit in at 6'2", but I can't stop staring at it. My R35 GTR is my "practical" sports car that can fit my kids in the back seat...kinda.
UKs a bit different and so are the values so I'm gonna limit myself to £80,000. First choice Lexus ISF around £25,000 for a nice one. Second choice the daily driver Skoda Octavia vrs estate, you can get a very nice one for £15,000. Third choice Jaguar F Type R, around £35,000. The remaining £5,000 would cover car tax and insurance. The only thing I'm missing is an AWD car for winter but for the Skoda should be able to handle it.
Good solid picks. This was actually pretty difficult as a lot of cars are relatively expensive these days, especially brand new. If it was brand new, I'd pick Toyota GR Yaris, Mazda MX-5 and Dacia Jogger, which just barely fits within the £80,000 limit. Second hand, it's still tricky because there's such a huge range of choices. I'd go for Toyota Supra for £42,000, BMW 128ti for £27,000 and Suzuki Ignis for £10,000.
Along the lines of the SS, I’m surprised the Kia Stinger didn’t make either list as a daily driver. A decent top trim GT from 4 years ago is $30kish… but with Kia’s warranty, it still has 6 years and ~60k miles of warranty left. That’s better than many new cars. It leaves a lot of budget to play with.
I have 2 options. Very, very much going on the 'they never break down and running costs are free' rules... Bentley Continental R (29,995) Aston Martin Vanquish (42,995) Jaguar X-Type 3.0V6 - 236hp awd estate (3990) for not even 80,000 Or Lotus Carlton (72990) Fiat Barchetta (6995) Rolls Royce Silver Spirit (19500)
So... a 2018 Genesis G90 Ultimate (5.0 - 420hp) affordable, reliable luxury; a a 2017-2019 Corvette Coupe (or perhaps convertible) Z51 at least 2LT; and a Dodge Magnum RT (great sound with a good proper exhaust) for groceries and loading stuff. IMHO... having a true "dream car garage" at 100k is very difficult in 2023. FYI... I am very tall... so that limits my choices. ;-)
How about 50K?...I have a 2007 Porsche Cayman, 2008 Jaguar XKR Portfolio and a 2008 Saab 9-7x AERO. All excellent condition for less than 50K. One SUV, one luxury GT car and one sports car.
My vote: 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio Manual 2015 Audi RS5 4.2 v8 2011 Audi S6/RS6 Avant 5.2v10 And the remainder of budget goes to carbon cleaning and maintenance... 😆😆 Perfect in my book. Use the Alfa in perfect weather for very aggressive driving, RS5 for all year hooning regardless of inclement-weather.... And The S6/RS6 for hooning (slowerly) with the family and friends! Or longer driving and general purpose transport!
Here’s my list: - 2018 Ford Raptor (used with ~50k miles goes for $50k) - 2019 Fiesta ST (~10k for a good example with decent mileage) - 2018 Focus RS ($35k for a good, low mileage one) I’m a Ford guy but I promise I didn’t do this on purpose 😂 the Raptor would be an amazing off-roader and family hauler. The Fiesta is a great daily that’s also fun and gets 33mpg highway. And the Focus RS is a fun weekend car that’s AWD and comes with 350hp but can easily be tuned to 400+whp.
I'm going for: 1) Kia EV6 as a daily (futuristic styling, practical space, and EV) 2) BMW E28 5-series (or other BMWs from that design era that might fit the price range, a weekend classic to drive around in), 3) Either a used Mazda Miata or used second-gen Audi TT for a fun tossable, usable, sporty car and convertible.
Wow, we’ve only heard that a few thousand times by the absolute lowest IQ viewers of Doug’s channel. Stop annoying millions of people with your inane comments.
without checking prices, id probably go for a miata aswell, then an electric car for the way to work and a small van for the occasional trip to the hardware store..
1. My 370Z ($27k) 2. My Stinger GT ($38k) 3. Ford ranger ($35k) That gives me a pure sports car. A luxury sports/grand touring car that makes an amazing daily. And a truck that has all of the capability that I’ll ever need.
BMW E39 M5, early Aston Martin V8 Vantage, and first generation Ford F-150 Raptor! Or Ferrari 360, C5 Z06 Corvette, and second generation Cadillac Escalade!
This was actually pretty difficult as a lot of cars are relatively expensive these days, especially brand new. If it was brand new, I'd pick Toyota GR Yaris, Mazda MX-5 and Dacia Jogger, which just barely fits within the £80,000 limit, which is what $100,000 equates to in the UK.

If you want a viper, get a 2nd gen. 2nd gens have an aftermarket and you can fix its problems. Own a 2nd gen for 5 years and its a great car to drive slow or fast.
I agree with this but I will say if you have the money definitely get a Gen 5 and if you can chose the GTS is the way to go. But I do have a biased opinion on Gen 4s as well. Both generations are incredible cars
Dacia jogger hybrid (daily, grocery getter, mule car) - 20k, Toyota Camry (in my country it is considered a Luxury car) - 40k, Porsche boxter - mid engine, manual fun car - 40k max
Hey Doug, if you had to choose within a $12,000 budget (give or take a couple thousand) for a minivan, any make or model, what's a guideline you'd use? 2006 to say 2014? What should I stay away from? Thanks! Just planning for family of my own
Me and my wife have what we consider the perfect Three-car-garage: a '23 VW ID Buzz - which I daily, a '12 VW Beetle (the good-looking, last-gen modern Beetle) - my wife's dream car, and my '70 Ford Torino Brougham - my boyhood dream muscle car guilty pleasure. Thow in my '09 Moto Guzzi V7 Classic (gotta love 'em motorcycles) and we're still under $100k. Great video and hopefully it shows that people can have a fun little collection without going completely bankrupt.
Choices taking living in the Midwest into consideration. I own all of these but would probably pick them again w/in a $100k budget for a 3 car garage: Daily - MK2 Audi TTRS - $30k Sports - MK1 Audi R8 V8 Gated Manual (Rebuilt title) - $65k Do Anything for me - C5 Audi allroad 6mt - $5k
We basically doubled the budget, but our actual factual 3-car garage (for two people to share): 2006 Caterham Seven - fun daily driver, cars&coffee top trump, and a lovely track weapon. 2015 Nissan GT-R - fantastic grand tourer, stupid fast. 2017 Ford Focus RS - the mountain goat. Goes anywhere, does everything.
Here’s the FOUR I’d choose for $10k over budget: 1. 2018 F150 Supercrew 4wd - $25k 2. 2022 Tesla Model 3 RWD - $25k 3. 2023 Jeep Wrangler Base 2dr Manual - $30k 4. 2023 Manual BRZ or Miata - $30k All are reliable and combined they give you this: 1. Safety 2. Versatility 3. Towing Capacity 4. Track Days and Autocross 5. Convertible and Doors Off 6. Mudding trails 7. New Tech 8. Fuel efficiency 9. Great in winter 10. Fun in summer 11. Great resale value for all 12. Fun to drive 13. Good for long drives 14. Comfortable 15. Each one is fun in its own way
Interesting thought excercise. My 3 current cars cost me roughly $125k. 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, 2019 Genesis G70 3.3T, and 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Ultimate. Not sure I would buy the same 3 cars if I bought all at once with a new budget. Would at least ditch the Hyundai for a Miata. Not sure of the wife would appreciate me selling her car though.
I tried on a different car selling site looking for three used vehicles for 1. a PHEV, 2. an SUV w/ three row seats, and 3. a two door sports car. $134K
I've given this a lot of thought over the years and have come up with my perfect 3 car garage. The cars are pretty specific (two are modded in specific ways) but this is my dream so... 1) Early (round tail light) BMW 2002 (or 1600) with an S14*, 5 speed and upgraded brakes and suspension. 2) Mercedes W123 wagon. (and here's where I piss of the purists) With an LS and 6spd manual (along with commensurate brake and suspension upgrades). 3) Steyr-Puch Pinzgauer 710M. Only mods are at least an electronic ignition upgrade (if not a full on EFI upgrade). And maybe some more comfortable seats. I think all 3 could be had for just under 100k. Worst case the W123 would have to be less modded. *That's BMW S14, not Nissan ... so basically the drive-train from an E30M3
My grandma had a white 2002tii for 22 years. It was a second gen, with squared rear lights. She managed to rack up 200.000km, (some 130ish thousands miles), without any major issue outside of regular maintenance. I drove it only twice because a range rover rear ended and totaled the car when I was 19 and there was no fixing it, it was a really bad accident, totalling the range and another car involved. Luckily my grandmother walked out of that almost unscathed, but the car was completely demolished. I vividly remember the driving experience to this day: that thing was actively trying to kill you every time you pushed the throttle down more than 20-30% and every time a single drop of rain was falling from the sky, but if you could handle that, it was very, very, very rewarding. I always dreamed about getting one for myself, but I barely fit (I'm 6'3), they are very old now and very rare, so I don't know if I'd ever drive get to drive one again. Still, great choice.
@@12gark Your grandmother is cooler than most. I've owned two late (square tail light) 2002s over the years, a '75 and a '76. I'd gladly take either one of them back at this point.
Alanis's list is entirely composed of impractical vehicles, even the sedan. The Miata is a great choice but there should be something in there with a hatch like a sporty wagon or something that is useful. The SS is just another fast but limited use vehicle, unless her husband has an actual useful vehicle in his stable. Doug's list at least has an almost sort of useful vehicle with the Mercedes. Alanis, just get the Karnival and get it over with.
Did this for myself and didn’t realize how much exponentially easier 125k is then 100k But for 100k guarantee Z4M 36,000 max W210 E55 31,000 max 2008 SLK55 26,750 max For 125k: W210 E55 AMG 31,500 absolute max Mid 2000s Aston Martin Vantage V8 55,000 absolute max 1994 dodge viper 41,250 absolute max Or W210 E55 AMG 31,500 max S2000 47,000 max Challenger Scat Pack 47,000 max
Okay I looked through Cars and Bids past results and came up with this. 1) 2000 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra R for $62,000. 2) 2012 Subaru Impresa WRX hatchback for $17,800. 3) 2004 BMW M3 hardtop convertible for $20,000. A total of $99,800.
I added a difficulty level: $CAN instead of $US. For me, that’d be a spanking new GR86 (41 000 $CAN), a really in shape AWD manual Honda Element (18 000 $CAN) and…wait for it…a really in shape BMW i3S REx for my fuel sipping car (around 30 000 $CAN). With what’s left, I’d fill my garage with all the Element spare parts I could find.
There's an AWD Element around here with a pop-up roof, spare tire setup, and custom bumpers with fog lights. It's that dark orange color, with a little mountain painted on the side. It is adorable, and I need it.
Ford Maverick Hybrid for my daily - $30k optioned to my need. I love mine and it’s the best normal daily vehicle IMO. A guy’s gotta pick stuff up from Home Depot. 1986 Buick Grand National - $35k for a solid driver example and it’s quick enough for me on the road, and it’s just cool. First year with the intercooler and you get 90% of the GNX performance for a fraction of the price. I’m torn between this and a GMC Typhoon for my 2nd vehicle. 987 Boxster - $35k for a decent used example and I can join SCCA and do autocross with it.
Dodge Viper burns are like people who burn their legs on motorcycles because they ride around in shorts...You only do it once. Also for Doug, the M5 would cost more than the $100k budget in repairs.
For under $100k total? Eh, my list would likely not even come close, but here we go: (assuming all are in reasonable running/cosmetic condition ofc) *2003-2007 XJR (Green) *Dodge Dakota R/T (blue, club cab) *1999 Pontiac TransAm WS6 (30th anniversary package spec)
My picks: Intermeccanica 356 Speedster Replica (about 50k used) + Suzuki Jimny (a good unit goes for about 10k in the USA) + BMW M2 Competition RWD (40K should be enough to get a good one). Here in Europe, the list varies...
With reliability as a factor: Toyota Tacoma LTD 4x4 6ft bed (~42k), First Gen Oldsmobile Bravada (~$10k max), 02-10 Porsche Convertible, any really, runny egg lights! Lol (~20k-40k) Reliability not as a factor: Mercedes GLE 4Matic with heated seats/cold weather package (~$50k), First Gen Olds Bravada (~$10k max), Used C300 4matic cabriolet (~$40k) Honorable Mentions That were considered: AWD Hyundai Kona Limited (~$32k), Pretty much any Used or new poverty spec E or C Class Mercedes (~$40k), Used BMW X3 (~$20k with miles), Last gen Oldsmobile 88 Regency (~$5k), Low milage, showroom condition AWD 3.6L Dodge Journey (~$20k), Nissan Frontier (~$22k-$45k), I'm sure there's more but that's just off the top of my head with the budget considered and only about 5 minutes to think.
I’m slightly over at 106,600, but the 3 I have now, 2021 C8 for 70,500, Mazda CX-5 for 36,100, and a 1992 Z28 which was free since I inherited when my Dad passed away, make me happy.
Mine would most likely be: - 2006, dark blue Porsche Cayman S (around $30k) as a sporty car, - also blue 2018/19 Volvo V90 T6 AWD (can be found for around $30k) as a daily, - and a nicest 2007, black/silver with red interior Mercedes-Benz SL 55 AMG (less than $40k) as Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR is my unobtainable dream car (and R230 SL looks kinda similar).

My current three car garage at $55k is a 2014 Nissan Frontier to daily, an E39 M5 for fun, and a 2002 CLK55 Convertible for nice days.
I like Alanis being on the channel. I love yalls banter! Good stuff!
Along the lines of the SS, I’m surprised the Kia Stinger didn’t make either list as a daily driver. A decent top trim GT from 4 years ago is $30kish… but with Kia’s warranty, it still has 6 years and ~60k miles of warranty left. That’s better than many new cars. It leaves a lot of budget to play with.
You know the full powertrain warranty doesn’t transfer, unless you buy CPO
@12:00 Alanis sounding like a mesothelioma commercial for dodge viper burn victims😂😂
I’d go with a big van for practicality, a sports car for fun and a fast wagon as daily driver
This is exactly what I did.
1. 2013 Toyota Land Cruiser
2. 2002 Honda S2000
3. 2023 Volvo V60 Recharge
i love these discussion videos with doug and alanis :)
I have 2 options. Very, very much going on the 'they never break down and running costs are free' rules...
Bentley Continental R (29,995)
Aston Martin Vanquish (42,995)
Jaguar X-Type 3.0V6 - 236hp awd estate (3990)
for not even 80,000
Or
Lotus Carlton (72990)
Fiat Barchetta (6995)
Rolls Royce Silver Spirit (19500)
It’s so sweet, how you Americans have just discovered manual
So... a 2018 Genesis G90 Ultimate (5.0 - 420hp) affordable, reliable luxury; a a 2017-2019 Corvette Coupe (or perhaps convertible) Z51 at least 2LT; and a Dodge Magnum RT (great sound with a good proper exhaust) for groceries and loading stuff. IMHO... having a true "dream car garage" at 100k is very difficult in 2023. FYI... I am very tall... so that limits my choices. ;-)
I don't care how insane it sounds a dodge viper will always be my dream car. It would make a great coffin.
How about 50K?...I have a 2007 Porsche Cayman, 2008 Jaguar XKR Portfolio and a 2008 Saab 9-7x AERO. All excellent condition for less than 50K. One SUV, one luxury GT car and one sports car.
I’m almost there..Tundra for work, XC70 for everything else..I just need a boxster / 996 911 for under 40k total)
2021 Challenger RT; 1972 Plymouth Roadrunner; 1999 NB Miata, are in garage right now. All are manuals. Got my 3!
My vote:
2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio Manual
2015 Audi RS5 4.2 v8
2011 Audi S6/RS6 Avant 5.2v10
And the remainder of budget goes to carbon cleaning and maintenance... 😆😆
Perfect in my book.
Use the Alfa in perfect weather for very aggressive driving, RS5 for all year hooning regardless of inclement-weather.... And The S6/RS6 for hooning (slowerly) with the family and friends! Or longer driving and general purpose transport!
I don’t know about the US, but these cars are over a 100k if all are in a reasonable condition
B7 RS 4, R32 GT-R, BMW X3 M40i. Usable European sports sedan, modifiable and “old-school” JDM sports car, and a practical yet fun daily SUV.
Here’s my list:
- 2018 Ford Raptor (used with ~50k miles goes for $50k)
- 2019 Fiesta ST (~10k for a good example with decent mileage)
- 2018 Focus RS ($35k for a good, low mileage one)
I’m a Ford guy but I promise I didn’t do this on purpose 😂 the Raptor would be an amazing off-roader and family hauler. The Fiesta is a great daily that’s also fun and gets 33mpg highway. And the Focus RS is a fun weekend car that’s AWD and comes with 350hp but can easily be tuned to 400+whp.
I'm going for:
1) Kia EV6 as a daily (futuristic styling, practical space, and EV)
2) BMW E28 5-series (or other BMWs from that design era that might fit the price range, a weekend classic to drive around in),
3) Either a used Mazda Miata or used second-gen Audi TT for a fun tossable, usable, sporty car and convertible.
That world's most expensive cookie tray in the background 👌
Wow, we’ve only heard that a few thousand times by the absolute lowest IQ viewers of Doug’s channel. Stop annoying millions of people with your inane comments.
without checking prices, id probably go for a miata aswell, then an electric car for the way to work and a small van for the occasional trip to the hardware store..
I love that the practical one on this channel is every bit as entertaining and self-aware as the hyperkinetic dreamer!
1. My 370Z ($27k)
2. My Stinger GT ($38k)
3. Ford ranger ($35k)
That gives me a pure sports car. A luxury sports/grand touring car that makes an amazing daily. And a truck that has all of the capability that I’ll ever need.
Doug the type of guy to eat cookies off his 918
@Doug 7:00 I own that 60 M5 it’s at 137,800 miles and has been around the county since fixing its only issue
I love these videos! My picks would be a Lexus is300 sportcross, Toyota FJ Cruiser, and either an E46 or an F30 M3.
F30?
BMW E39 M5, early Aston Martin V8 Vantage, and first generation Ford F-150 Raptor!
Or
Ferrari 360, C5 Z06 Corvette, and second generation Cadillac Escalade!
Alanis + Doug is such a great combo! These videos are so fun
Alanis is such a good sport and so personable. So fun to have on the channel
This was actually pretty difficult as a lot of cars are relatively expensive these days, especially brand new. If it was brand new, I'd pick Toyota GR Yaris, Mazda MX-5 and Dacia Jogger, which just barely fits within the £80,000 limit, which is what $100,000 equates to in the UK.
Second hand, it's still tricky because there's such a huge range of choices. I'd go for Toyota Supra for £42,000, BMW 128ti for £27,000 and Suzuki Ignis for £10,000. Kinda going for the three pillars, the sports car, the hot hatch and the practical/interesting cars.
Ford Ranger Lariat Tremor $35k
Volvo XC90 $35k
BMW M240i $30k
All CPO used with low miles
2013 Dodge Charger R/T Max (current car), 2013 Cadillac Escalade EXT, Evo 6
Already got it:
1. 2008 Corvette base
2. 2014 Tesla Model S
3. 1974 Porsche 911 highly modified.
F150 for family car. Pontiac Solstice for sports car. 97 Chevy pickup for fun project hot rod/ weekend cruiser.
Wouldn’t mind a Boxer as well……
doug the type of guy to have a smart crossblade as a dream car
If you want a viper, get a 2nd gen. 2nd gens have an aftermarket and you can fix its problems. Own a 2nd gen for 5 years and its a great car to drive slow or fast.
I agree with this but I will say if you have the money definitely get a Gen 5 and if you can chose the GTS is the way to go. But I do have a biased opinion on Gen 4s as well. Both generations are incredible cars
@@TheRenegade. definitely! But i lusted over the 2nd gen gts and there are people making parts for them now. Id like both in my garage 😍
Dacia jogger hybrid (daily, grocery getter, mule car) - 20k, Toyota Camry (in my country it is considered a Luxury car) - 40k, Porsche boxter - mid engine, manual fun car - 40k max
Hey Doug, if you had to choose within a $12,000 budget (give or take a couple thousand) for a minivan, any make or model, what's a guideline you'd use? 2006 to say 2014? What should I stay away from? Thanks! Just planning for family of my own
C6 Grand Sport manual, 9th gen F150 short bed 4x4, Lexus NX hybrid
Me and my wife have what we consider the perfect Three-car-garage: a '23 VW ID Buzz - which I daily, a '12 VW Beetle (the good-looking, last-gen modern Beetle) - my wife's dream car, and my '70 Ford Torino Brougham - my boyhood dream muscle car guilty pleasure. Thow in my '09 Moto Guzzi V7 Classic (gotta love 'em motorcycles) and we're still under $100k.
Great video and hopefully it shows that people can have a fun little collection without going completely bankrupt.
Choices taking living in the Midwest into consideration.
I own all of these but would probably pick them again w/in a $100k budget for a 3 car garage:
Daily - MK2 Audi TTRS - $30k
Sports - MK1 Audi R8 V8 Gated Manual (Rebuilt title) - $65k
Do Anything for me - C5 Audi allroad 6mt - $5k
This was just wonderful! So fun!
-‘14 ford raptor
-‘21 Model 3 LR
-340i or m240i depending on how much cash I got left
Toyota Previa, Vanguard Sebring CitiCar, Pontiac Aztec.
Alanis ‘Queen’ is doing great!
We basically doubled the budget, but our actual factual 3-car garage (for two people to share):
2006 Caterham Seven - fun daily driver, cars&coffee top trump, and a lovely track weapon.
2015 Nissan GT-R - fantastic grand tourer, stupid fast.
2017 Ford Focus RS - the mountain goat. Goes anywhere, does everything.
Hello Douglas yes hi just wanted to say I love these videos thanks
Here’s the FOUR I’d choose for $10k over budget:
1. 2018 F150 Supercrew 4wd - $25k
2. 2022 Tesla Model 3 RWD - $25k
3. 2023 Jeep Wrangler Base 2dr Manual - $30k
4. 2023 Manual BRZ or Miata - $30k
All are reliable and combined they give you this:
1. Safety
2. Versatility
3. Towing Capacity
4. Track Days and Autocross
5. Convertible and Doors Off
6. Mudding trails
7. New Tech
8. Fuel efficiency
9. Great in winter
10. Fun in summer
11. Great resale value for all
12. Fun to drive
13. Good for long drives
14. Comfortable
15. Each one is fun in its own way
2012~14 Chrysler 300 SRT8 - $30k
2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray (manual) - $40k
2018 Ford Mustang GT (manual) -$30k
1. Estoril Blue Audi RS5 4.2 V8 FSI S tronic quattro Cabriolet
2. Silver Alfa Romeo Brera 3.2 JTS V6 24V Q4 Sky View
3. Red Mazda RX-8 STD-Power Revolution
Interesting thought excercise. My 3 current cars cost me roughly $125k. 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, 2019 Genesis G70 3.3T, and 2018 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Ultimate. Not sure I would buy the same 3 cars if I bought all at once with a new budget. Would at least ditch the Hyundai for a Miata. Not sure of the wife would appreciate me selling her car though.
Alanis killed it. Be careful out there Alanis.
1 - Audi R8 - 50k
2 - 911 (997.1) Cabrio - 40k
3 - Lincoln Town Car - 10k
I tried on a different car selling site looking for three used vehicles for 1. a PHEV, 2. an SUV w/ three row seats, and 3. a two door sports car. $134K
I love your videos Doug they are so much fun
I've given this a lot of thought over the years and have come up with my perfect 3 car garage. The cars are pretty specific (two are modded in specific ways) but this is my dream so...
1) Early (round tail light) BMW 2002 (or 1600) with an S14*, 5 speed and upgraded brakes and suspension.
2) Mercedes W123 wagon. (and here's where I piss of the purists) With an LS and 6spd manual (along with commensurate brake and suspension upgrades).
3) Steyr-Puch Pinzgauer 710M. Only mods are at least an electronic ignition upgrade (if not a full on EFI upgrade). And maybe some more comfortable seats.
I think all 3 could be had for just under 100k. Worst case the W123 would have to be less modded.
*That's BMW S14, not Nissan ... so basically the drive-train from an E30M3
My grandma had a white 2002tii for 22 years. It was a second gen, with squared rear lights. She managed to rack up 200.000km, (some 130ish thousands miles), without any major issue outside of regular maintenance. I drove it only twice because a range rover rear ended and totaled the car when I was 19 and there was no fixing it, it was a really bad accident, totalling the range and another car involved. Luckily my grandmother walked out of that almost unscathed, but the car was completely demolished.
I vividly remember the driving experience to this day: that thing was actively trying to kill you every time you pushed the throttle down more than 20-30% and every time a single drop of rain was falling from the sky, but if you could handle that, it was very, very, very rewarding.
I always dreamed about getting one for myself, but I barely fit (I'm 6'3), they are very old now and very rare, so I don't know if I'd ever drive get to drive one again. Still, great choice.
@@12gark Your grandmother is cooler than most. I've owned two late (square tail light) 2002s over the years, a '75 and a '76. I'd gladly take either one of them back at this point.
Alanis's list is entirely composed of impractical vehicles, even the sedan. The Miata is a great choice but there should be something in there with a hatch like a sporty wagon or something that is useful. The SS is just another fast but limited use vehicle, unless her husband has an actual useful vehicle in his stable. Doug's list at least has an almost sort of useful vehicle with the Mercedes. Alanis, just get the Karnival and get it over with.
The Holden Commodore SS is a great choice from Alanis
Did this for myself and didn’t realize how much exponentially easier 125k is then 100k
But for 100k guarantee
Z4M 36,000 max
W210 E55 31,000 max
2008 SLK55 26,750 max
For 125k:
W210 E55 AMG 31,500 absolute max
Mid 2000s Aston Martin Vantage V8 55,000 absolute max
1994 dodge viper 41,250 absolute max
Or
W210 E55 AMG 31,500 max
S2000 47,000 max
Challenger Scat Pack 47,000 max
Okay I looked through Cars and Bids past results and came up with this. 1) 2000 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra R for $62,000. 2) 2012 Subaru Impresa WRX hatchback for $17,800. 3) 2004 BMW M3 hardtop convertible for $20,000. A total of $99,800.
Mustang GT (Coyote with some handling mods), Tundra crewmax with a supercharger, and JL Wrangler Rubicon (2 door).

She gave us permission to take parts from her miatas. Dang, she is so nice😂
‘06 RAM SRT-10 (17k), Aston Martin Rapide (40k), gen 2 viper GTS(40k)
I added a difficulty level: $CAN instead of $US.
For me, that’d be a spanking new GR86 (41 000 $CAN), a really in shape AWD manual Honda Element (18 000 $CAN) and…wait for it…a really in shape BMW i3S REx for my fuel sipping car (around 30 000 $CAN). With what’s left, I’d fill my garage with all the Element spare parts I could find.
There's an AWD Element around here with a pop-up roof, spare tire setup, and custom bumpers with fog lights. It's that dark orange color, with a little mountain painted on the side.
It is adorable, and I need it.
@@henryrodgers7386 Aren’t they likeable? It’d be my German Shepherd carrier.
I'd probably try and snag up a used widebody scat challenger for 50K, a used ND club for 30K, and try and find a manual crosstrek for 20K.
Manual crosstrek??🤣🤣 give me a 2.0 manual accord for daily driving or even an automatic 2.0
@@Dick-Cheese-4 I'm dailying the miata. The crosstrek is for camping.
The Viper is the ultimate muscle car. Nothing is more American than having an 8 liter engine in a car.
So glad to see the boxster on Doug's list, the boxster gets so much hate from people but in my opinion it's the best overall car porsche has ever made
Ford Maverick Hybrid for my daily - $30k optioned to my need. I love mine and it’s the best normal daily vehicle IMO. A guy’s gotta pick stuff up from Home Depot.
1986 Buick Grand National - $35k for a solid driver example and it’s quick enough for me on the road, and it’s just cool. First year with the intercooler and you get 90% of the GNX performance for a fraction of the price. I’m torn between this and a GMC Typhoon for my 2nd vehicle.
987 Boxster - $35k for a decent used example and I can join SCCA and do autocross with it.
Dodge Viper burns are like people who burn their legs on motorcycles because they ride around in shorts...You only do it once.
Also for Doug, the M5 would cost more than the $100k budget in repairs.
For under $100k total? Eh, my list would likely not even come close, but here we go: (assuming all are in reasonable running/cosmetic condition ofc)
*2003-2007 XJR (Green)
*Dodge Dakota R/T (blue, club cab)
*1999 Pontiac TransAm WS6 (30th anniversary package spec)
2006 Porsche Boxster/ 2014 Ford Raptor/2016 Lexus 200h. Done....... OR, a C6 Vette & Lexus 450h & a 2007 VW Touareg.
My picks: Intermeccanica 356 Speedster Replica (about 50k used) + Suzuki Jimny (a good unit goes for about 10k in the USA) + BMW M2 Competition RWD (40K should be enough to get a good one).
Here in Europe, the list varies...
With reliability as a factor: Toyota Tacoma LTD 4x4 6ft bed (~42k), First Gen Oldsmobile Bravada (~$10k max), 02-10 Porsche Convertible, any really, runny egg lights! Lol (~20k-40k)
Reliability not as a factor: Mercedes GLE 4Matic with heated seats/cold weather package (~$50k), First Gen Olds Bravada (~$10k max), Used C300 4matic cabriolet (~$40k)
Honorable Mentions That were considered: AWD Hyundai Kona Limited (~$32k), Pretty much any Used or new poverty spec E or C Class Mercedes (~$40k), Used BMW X3 (~$20k with miles), Last gen Oldsmobile 88 Regency (~$5k), Low milage, showroom condition AWD 3.6L Dodge Journey (~$20k), Nissan Frontier (~$22k-$45k), I'm sure there's more but that's just off the top of my head with the budget considered and only about 5 minutes to think.
2012-2017 Maserati GranTurismo, 2016 Audi S7 & (high mileage) Dodge Challenger R/T.
I’m slightly over at 106,600, but the 3 I have now, 2021 C8 for 70,500, Mazda CX-5 for 36,100, and a 1992 Z28 which was free since I inherited when my Dad passed away, make me happy.
I had the same idea, but I have very interesting cars such as a Shelby kit car with a wrx engine
Crazy that 100k cant even buy you 3 avg new cars today
Mine would most likely be:
- 2006, dark blue Porsche Cayman S (around $30k) as a sporty car,
- also blue 2018/19 Volvo V90 T6 AWD (can be found for around $30k) as a daily,
- and a nicest 2007, black/silver with red interior Mercedes-Benz SL 55 AMG (less than $40k) as Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR is my unobtainable dream car (and R230 SL looks kinda similar).
