It’s got chicken bone rods.

People have gone mid-upper 11's on factory engines, hell I ran a 12.1 on street tires with a tune that eventually ate my trans. How much more do you need in a daily?

Also not exactly luxury.

Okay, compared to a lexus or BMW you're correct, compared to a 03 toyota or honda it's got a few nice features. It's not a bad place to be either way.

Well, I am going to suggest the exact car that I've been tempted to sell my Accord coupe for.

Just as good, or better, than a Marauder. Change the wheels and youll never get a second glance.

G8 GXP has my vote. Or an LS Caddy or a nice Lexus.
My advice is stay away from euro cars.


Pick your poison.

While I disagree that a 12-second car is fast (as a general statement), a 12-second daily driver is (especially a low 12-second daily driver) actually pretty quick. Yes, even in 2018.

I vote older M5. I'd never own one, being mechanically retarded myself, but they have a soft spot in my heart.

Late 80s Lincoln Town Car. Add whatever luxuries you desire and there will still be money left over.
