Car Futures

The most productive thing I've done this summer is plan out my car owning future.

Currently, 1999 Chrysler Intrepid, Black (value < $100 at this point)




Sadly, this car is almost dead. Thankfully, my parents are replacing their red 1999 Chrysler Intrepid soon, and are planning to give it to me. :) It has about half the kilometers and is in much better shape (value ~$500)



After I drive this car to death, it'll be time for my first real car purchase.
Jaguar XF (value ~$60 000)




I think I will feel obligated to to take up golf as a hobby at this point.
Then I'll upgrade to a Jaguar XK (value ~$100 000)




The red brake discs pictured above will be replaced (and burned >_<).
Finally, the holy grail of my car journey, Aston Martin DB9 (~ $200 000)





Yay!

This might be a little ambitious. I feel like I might need a reasonably priced sedan between the Red intrepid and the XF. Not sure what that might be yet. :/

This list will also probably change very soon. Specifically, the next time I watch Top Gear.

    Infiniti M?

  2. Also, XKR-S is stupid. I just realized this morning that it has 2 doors, costs more and will get blitzed by an M5 on track.

    So of course when Top Gear pits it against a GT-R, the sports car eviscerates it.

  3. I was thinking something by either Lexus, Infiniti, or Hyundai.

  4. ONE OF THOSE IS DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHERS
