Just for fun, best car under $100K...what would you get and why?

Have we already talked about the stupidity of the Taycan having "Turbo" models?  Looks to me like the marketing guys won out and the engineers got told to pound sand.

apparently high amperage doesn't sound as sexy

I'm not into offroading at all - but since all the tracks shut down, and it is kind of illegal to racecar on the street - I'm jealous of guys that can just turn off into a dirt road and do whatever the hell they want.

Buy a SXS.

yessir

Not necessarily a best car under 100k type car, but my wife just bought a new Kia Stinger GT-Line (4 cyl turbo)
It's really a great car with some pretty high end features, I'm thinking a GT2 might be on my radar when it's time to go shopping.

Aston Martin V12 Vantage?  Haha

Just after the insurance company totaled her G37, she started describing what she wanted in her next car.
I showed my wife pics of your Aston, she was in love and was wanting to find one.
IDK how she came around to my suggestion of the Stinger.

The Stinger is a pretty solid car, at least appearance and spec wise.   If they’d had any 15-20k mile used ones on the lot when I bought my BMW I’d very likely have a brightly colored GT right now.   Seems like a lot of car for the money.

I drove a co-workers 2013 GT-R last week.   
I was really impressed with how it put the power down (1,200whp on E85), and how well it rode and handled.
The car was immaculate, and he paid well under 100K for it.
It has a built motor, hybrid turbos, and a fully built transmission with upgraded clutch packs.
It could easily be a daily, it was that well tuned and refined, but would be really thirsty if you drive a lot of miles.
It did drive home how much fun AWD can be, with enough horsepower.    And the rolling anti-lag was a real hoot.

I recently took delivery of my new daily / tow rig, a 2021 Jeep Track Hawk.  It is a hoot to drive and takes the drudgery out of having to daily a tow rig!
