This
I'm in the process of doing that as we speak...
CTS-V if it were me. Comfort, 4 doors, and power if needed. If I was in my 20's then the 03 Cobra for sure.

You also have to consider if your going to mod the car. Is it going to be a DD or are you going to drive it once in a while . I personally would go with the V . A Zo6 drivetrain in a 4 door

Good luck with an Audi S4 if you go with that. An Audi is a fun ride untill the warranty runs out and then you have deal with frequent and expensive repair bills.
I will always own my 2001 Cobra, but for my next car, I'm looking at buying a used ride that is fast, handles well and won't break down and right now the Lexus ISF is looking real good. I Dont want my next car to be a tinker toy where I'm having to constantly fuck with it ( I do my own wrenching) and the ISF is reliable as hell unlike the German junk.

tough choice but depends on what you want to do. if you wanna go fast, get a cobra. if you want a dd, id rather have a ctsv.
honestly, the ctsv is more car but the cobra is just so dam flashy.

it just comes down to what you really want... do you want just a fast car or do you want luxury an some speed..cause the cts-v is ls3 i believe... if you plan on driving a lot id say the v but more of a weekend car id go cobra.

Ctsv is a ls6 new Ctsv is a lsa a new cts-v shouldn't be compared to an old cobra. If it were me id get a v more versatility plus most you can find aren't fucked up

03/04 Cobra. Find a nice clean one for under 20k put a smaller pully and a good tune puts down over 430rwhp and fully smog legal. Can't really beat that.

I never really agreed wth this thought process... I suggest getting the toys out the way and paid for before the house because paying a mortgage is more expensive and a lot longer than a car payment.
Then again it depends on the location also. Out in the boonies you may be able to score a house for $100k when out here the are $600k and northward...
