    What new car would you buy for $50,000?

    You have to keep it stock... no buying an evo and adding $20,000 worth of mods. I actually had a hard time, not because there was so much that I wanted, but because there aren't any cars that jump out to me as perfect from the factory.

    The G35 is nice, but the interior looks like it came from the early 90's. New Bimmers are ok, but they're starting to do all the driving for you with SMG and most recently, Active Front Steering. The new IS300 is leaning more towards luxury than sportiness, apparently. Evos are always good, but isn't there anything else?

    Maybe I'm turning into an old guy, because I think automobiles peaked with the introduction of the MkIII Supra, 95 Silvia and the previous gen M5. Anyone else think new cars suck?
