Whats up guys,

I'm thinking of selling one of my mustangs, if not both, and getting a new car but I'm so undecided on what to get.

I'll probably have around $25,000 to spend on a car.
I'm mostly looking for something luxury but with some balls, although power isn't necessarily a priority. I do want to be able to throw a air ride suspension on it...

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance [patriot]

This may not be the way you want to go... but I suggest some type of corvette... put $18,000 as a down payment on a c6 Z06 and use the rest for H/C/I & Full Exhaust..and never look back ever again
