Norms Three Best Cars for $100,000

Got $100,000 burning a hole in your pocket? You want to go out there and get one of the best driver's machines ever made, something that will make you grin from ear to ear and in the space of a 15 minute drive home can turn a bad day into a good one.

Now, if I were you, there are only a few cars to chose from. The Aston Martin V8 Vantage is $20,000 too rich, but the XKR convertible, which is essentially the same car, comes in at $95,150. And it is amazing, gorgeous, has over 500hp, handles beautifully, and you will never be able to walk away from it without one long, longing look back.



Your second option is the Nissan GT-R. This is the Playstation in comparison to the XJR's Maggie Thatcher (think refined fury). It is a technological marvel, should realistically be sold for far more than its quoted starting price, and is quite possibly the best driver's car available today, bar none. It makes 911's weep, Ferrari's take notice, and is really only lacking one thing: sexiness. It ain't pretty, but I actually love its looks. And it starts at only $84,000 (though will likely cost you closer to $100,000).

Last but certainly not least, you have the Corvette ZR-1. So, its base price is a little over $100,000 but the dealer invoice is $99,933... so I am going to let this once squeak by. The Blue Devil is a true beast of a car, and one of the highest performance cars for sale today. It has 638hp, 604lb of torque, handling is amazing if a little hairy. If the XKR is refined British, the GT-R Japanese electronic wizardry, this is John Wayne meets Chuck Norris at a Navy SEALS training camp next to a Metallica concert. It makes a Dodge Viper look tame.



Any way you look at it, you are getting more bang for your buck than at any previous time in history. Each of these cars would make anything but the absolute newest and highest-performance Ferraris and Lamborghinis beg for mercy. They are the kings of the track, the overlords of the back roads, and the sultans of horsepower.

They say money cant buy happiness. They are wrong.
