So there's been many threads asking what's your dream ride. Most of our dream rides cost more than our nuts.

So here's the converse question. What's the cheapest NEW car you are willing to buy that unmodded, you will be perfectly happy with?

Let's see what you guys think about in your wildest dreams... .

i dont understand why everyone loves the R35, i think they are ugly, they dont go around corners, and no parts are interchangeable with another R35, and you have to rebuild the engine every 50,000ks

and i dont think anyone is actually getting the point of this thread

That's fair enough and your opinion :) In my opinion, for bang for your buck, as Ray said above, nothing comes close stock.

Well ofey never mentioned anything about having to be able to afford it lol

When you're asking for something that you'll be COMPLETELY happy with unmodded then that's just sorta asking for people to have high expectations.

but you'd still put chrome wheels on it jezza, so that doesn't really count
