BBV: Pick My Car

[studgear]

So I've had a decent start to summer and sitting at about +50K for the may/june after starting horribly. Anyway, a year ago I was playing .10/.25NL and needless to say I couldn't afford a car. Now I can. So, I come to you BBV, since you're the official authority on ballerness, or whatever it is you want to call it.

Ill be entering my last year at UBC, so I'll be using the car in downtown Vancouver a decent amount, if that changes any of your opinions.

So far I've narrowed it down to 4 (somewhat random) choices. All these cars are in the 2002-2004/5 range.

Cadillac CTS
Lincoln LS
Nissan 350z
Infinity G35 coupe

I'm fortunate enough to have family members working in the auto industry, so I can get pretty good deals on all of these cards. They all range from about 15-25K, but as long as its in that range, price won't really effect the decision. I'm definitely planning on putting nice rims on well, as that may effect the decision (Ie. the CTS is kinda gross without rims)

Since I'm retarded/I assume you guys probably know what each of the cars look like, I won't add pics, but hopefully someone bored can do that for me if people want.

I'll follow BBV's advice and post a TR of the purchase with some pictures as well.

Thanks in advance

I have rode in all these, heres a brief review:

You may choose only one

Cadillac CTS: Buddy owns one. Very nice car and luxurious. Defiantly baller. Cons: Premium gas, expensive replacement parts, made by GM.

Lincoln LS: Overrated. The interior looks cheap with plastic parts, not impressed.

Nissan 350z: Great handling and Nissan is a good manufacurer (I own a 2005 Maxima). If you are looking at this car you should also look at its competition the Mazda Rx8.

Infinity G35: My girlfriend has this car. Very baller and quick. Make sure to get it in black to be extra baller.

Summary: I would pick either the Cadillac or the Infinity. Read consumer reports info on both and test drive them both.

I drive an STi...I would HIGHLY recommend driving one before buying another car...I was looking at all sorts of luxury cars and opted for the less luxurious STi since it was by far the most fun to drive
