$50K? That'd be like 5 SRT's, or 25 1gns.
I'd probably go for an older Plymouth. Completely restored 58.
If it was new...probably an SRT8 charger or Magnum.

EDIT: Oh, my car would be an 03 Porsche 911 Turbo 6 Speed, Black on Black. Or maybe my '00 Neon fully built, and BMW M3 for a beater.

I'm not picky. I'd throw another 20g at Grrtrude, and the buy a tow rig. A used diesel pickup and an enclosed trailer would probably work out quite nicely.

Exactly....

I work in the highline auto business, and I personally could get an '03 Turbo for right around 50 (Like I could ever actually afford it though, pshh...). Good luck buying a nice one at retail for that price.
