$75,000 and a (car) dream...

pull the engine

But vr6!

A salesman tried to sell me a CTS-V wagon maybe 6/7 years ago. I drove it and didn't like it that much(especially for the mileage/price.) I was unaware at the time that they were so desirable.

Peanut butter coloured... lol. And not everything... seats, ebrake cover, shifter.. Door cards... everything else black.

You totally had me until peanut butter.

I know... the sound is sexy still... but ttrs

I'd keep the VR6. PB interior sounds sexy tho.

How about the Bisi 1000HP 6 speed Odyssey Van.

There is a good Savage Geese review of a CTS-V. If I could have a nice collection the wagon would be in it but would not be my first, second or third choice for a wagon. RS2 Avant, Volvo V70R or AMG wagon.

If only they could build one with awd and without an eyesore of an intercooler. And in this case, would rather an automatic so it could be a legitimate family hauler

The best I can describe them is that they were the new '03 Cobra' for the aftermarket. Big gains from easy mods. I saw one double black stick wagon from Canada that was dope.

Yes, AWD and even less HP would be good. On pump gas it makes like 600 and is programmed for boost by gear to help with traction but it really needs AWD. I'd keep the manual tho.

Big gains from easy mods is always a plus.

Now that you mention it I'd actually rather have a 03 Terminator over a CTS-V Wagon.

Wonder if the new Ct5V is a better drivers car than the ctsv. Apparently you can get it with a manual too, but no wagon.

What about the Lotus Elise/Exige?

With $75K, I think I’d spend $40Kish on a new two-door Wrangler and then just save the rest. My GTI is new enough, low miles, and will be paid off by summer so it fulfills the role of the fun car. Lots of cool cars mentioned in the thread.

If you’re buying a wrangler, you’re modding it with the rest of the cash.

That’s what you’re supposed to think, but if you were smart with your wrangler you spend money on gas and adventures, not boulevard flash.
