If you don't know then you aren't a real petrolhead and shouldn't be spending the money.

Spending lots of money on cars is nowhere near as much fun as you think it is. If you think car dealers are sharks in the day to day GM/Ford range wait till you play in the major leagues; those guys are pros and will rip you a new one AND sell you a turkey in seconds. You'll know when you've been had when you try for trade in and they offer you a fifth of what you paid - or nothing at all. Maybe just a spot in their showroom for a whopping commision when it does eventually sell two years later.

Every car they sell is to someone who has temporarily lost track of the value of money, but every car they buy in is a desparation sale. You do the math.

If you don't know exactly what you want you'll get stuffed for sure.

Double your current spend on a car and buy a penis pump, you'll be a lot happier.
