Whats a cool car for a 40 year old single guy? - GoFuckYourself.com

clickhappy · 10-28-2012, 11:29 AM

I never had a cool car, I've always had Honda's, Toyota's, Hyundai, etc. My 40th birthday is coming in about a year and I was thinking I should get a cool car.

Im into luxury & comfort or something fun. Im not into speed (like a cramped Camaro)

Something small so its better on gas, but still something cool. Its just me, no kids, so I dont need a boat or gas guzzler.
Not outrageously expensive, middle of the road. But still fun and cool.

thoughts?

Lotus Elise?

Doesn't "luxury & comfort" cancel out "something small"?

Max Potential · 10-28-2012, 11:43 AM

1971 Mach 1 Mustang...I've always thought this fit the something fun profile..

A friend of mine recently got a used Corvette. I don't know what year it is, someone knew. Her husband didn't understand her odd obsession with getting the car; They last thing they need is a two seater. However, he sat in the car and punched it and it threw him back in the seat and now he loves it.

I recently discovered the joys of used cars. That car you wanted when you were a kid you can pick up dirt cheap. I recently bought a twenty year old pick up thinking it would be great as a back up car and also in the event we need to haul stuff. I figured I might as well get four wheel drive just for kicks. I fixed it up, repainted some things, new tires and chrome, looks like brand new. Turns out our truck has been a blast - I can and do haul stuff all the time, and a trip to the store is much more entertaining when the field next to the parking lot is a huge mud puddle.

Now on Craigslist I'm seeing all of the cars I wanted when I was younger - Like a mid 80s Monte Carlo SS, old Vettes, Mustangs.... All under $5k. I've always wanted a convertable so that's next on my buck list.

Rochard · 10-28-2012, 11:58 AM

This is what I'm talking about.... $2k plus $2k in repairs and parts and some elbow grease:

That's a twenty year old truck, and that's before the new bumper and the paint job.

k0nr4d · 10-28-2012, 11:59 AM

5 series? E class?

Zuzana Designs · 10-28-2012, 12:01 PM

I love Acura and have an RL. It gets great gas millage and lots of room with all the options. The MDX is a pretty nice SUV as well.

MDX

I've been looking at the 335xi's or a c-class 4matic. Need awd for all seasons and a back seat. They don't get the best gas mileage but better than some.

TMM_John · 10-28-2012, 12:55 PM

If you're like most of us around here and enjoy technology and computers take a look at the new Tesla Model S. Start here: http://www.teslamotors.com/models/features#/interior

It fits your better on gas requirement and it's certainly cool with the environmentally conscious crowd.

Yeah I think an Acura would be nice. Its a great name but wont put me into the poor house.
Or maybe a BMW 3 series would be good

If your ok with used, try Pontiac G8 GT, Cadillac CTS-V, Lexus ISF, M3. those should be close to your price range used. They are fun and comfortable, Luxury, not too small not too big in size

I want new.
Honestly I'll probably lease. I'm almost done with my current lease and I loved it and want to lease again.

I believe Honda makes Acura. I’ve had a couple BMW 3/5 series and a couple Mercedes. No complaints about any of those cars. I've been looking around at getting a new SUV after my son was born as I really need more room. I like the Acura MDX and the BMW X5 Diesel. Konrad has me convinced to go German and diesel.

shimmy2 · 10-28-2012, 01:32 PM

used elise's are under 20k easy. by the time you're 40 whatever you've got just keep it clean constantly along with your appearance and you're good to go with chicks 1/2 your age. you should have a beater for doing errand running/home depot/shopping and another car for going out that you keep clean n fresh

JayS · 10-28-2012, 02:01 PM

How about a BMW 1 Series Coupe? The new one looks really sexy and you can't go wrong with a BMW.

The guy doesn't want a car to make him cool. He wants a cool yet comfy car because it'll be more fun.

"cool" depends on budget buddy.

johnnyloadproductions · 10-28-2012, 03:11 PM

Peaks at about 35, 40 down a hill. But I get 110 mpg on it.

In 5 years I'll own a ferrari f458.

slapass · 10-28-2012, 03:45 PM

Anything convertible. I was going to say the Z4 but you have repented on the two seater. Get a BMW, Audi or whatever convertible that is a few years old. You will love it. The key to keeping it affordable is girl's have no clue so you don't need an AMG or M.

L-Pink · 10-28-2012, 03:56 PM

Mercedes 500SL's have virtually no resale value. You can find a very low mileage car on ebay for $25000-$30000.

GrantMercury · 10-28-2012, 07:48 PM

If you want something cool, you're gonna hafta spend some cash.

If you're buying new, the new Subaru BRZ / Scion FRS are cool - but small and cramped.

Subaru WRX is pretty cool, and fast, plus it has all wheel drive.

Hyundai Genesis coupe is pretty cool, but small and cramped.

Ford Mustang might be worth checking out, but V8 version is like $30k.

MazdaSpeed 3 is fast and reasonably priced.

Have fun looking.

If you need a car to be cool, get a Harley

RKLover · 10-28-2012, 08:43 PM

I would say it depends upon who you want to impress.

If you care more what other people think, lease something expensive that can be turned in 3 years down the road for something cooler.

If you don't give a fuck what people think, buy something you like that you can drive for ten or more years.
