Torn on cars again

[Tree]

2017 Shelby GT 500. Less than $100K and tough to beat.

If you want big power get a GT and put a whipple on it. Drive it everyday and be faster than almost anything you will come across on the road.

Supra's go for crazy money. Not worth it.

I really appreciate the comments! May I ask, what year you have and what model you have?

Ive also kinda forgot that I have a Lexus is300 that I am planing to do a GTE swap into as well...

Ha I have a RHD 2001 IS as well!

The front of my house was like a used Toyota dealer

Look at this thread to see all my Goodies http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26534

The Mustang is as fast a a bolt on Supra, as comfortable and with a nicer interior than the Lexus. and handles better than my Skyline, plus will be faster once I go big turbo. It's like three cars in one.

Don't get rid of the supra, make it stock and it will be worth good money now and much more later, But the EBM is just a better car in every way.

Why not just keep the one you have?

I leased this one to in a sense get out of the g35 that was bleeding me dry on repairs. This one was actually a dealer ordered car and is beautiful but my preference would have been white, base model, w/recaros..

This would be perfect, truth is I wouldn't be able to afford it in the way I like to manage my money. I have enough to do this but I would be stretching myself to far into what I can save for the car payment and modifications so I have to keep some self control for my budget. By this would be top choice if financially it would be no issue.

You certainly have one respectable collection. The funny thing is, your comments have made the most impact on me because you literally own all the cars I have owned or currently own minus the skyline which I have always wanted and your insight states that you prefer the mustang. This is comparing apples to apples with my dilemma. I love my 2001 Is300 which right now is my wife's daily but I ended up having her drove this car because her fusion was breaking down. So eventually I will be getting her something she really likes and the IS will be my project. So I guess I could always just be happy with that lol.

I'm starting to recognize that I miss my supra for the attention and what the car was. But in the end my Eco is the car bringing these feelings back and reminding me of how great my supra was to me. So I'm getting those feelings in answer more reliable car. I'm starting to lean toward staying the Eco route and going big turbo.....

I love my Supras but it is night and day. I actually get more stares and complements on the Mustang. I got rid of the silver one and only have the White. It just feels so dated when I jump in it! I'll never own a GT. When the warranty is up on the Stang I'm going big turbo, and built engine.

And my co-worker just made me an offer on the IS. Looks like that will be gone too.

I really appreciate your comments and opinion toward the car. i went for nice drive today and realized again how much I appreciate this new S550. I think I have actually decided to stick with the stang. This is the best route for sure.

i love the supra so much, such a iconic car, if i had a spare 35 to 50k laying around for a weekend warrior car id find the lowest mileage one i could.

for a car that id be using almost every day, big turbo ecoboost every single time.

My plan, well the white one has been returned to full stock, just going to enjoy it and restore it to factory mint condition!

i found a really nice one for sale for $37k close to here, low miles, stock everything, garage kept etc etc etc. I wanted to go for it so bad but i need a good off road truck before another car lol.
