BMW E46 M3: Has a posh interior while having one of the best engines BMW has produced thus far. Fast, fun to drive, and considering what you get, affordable. With an aftermarket supercharger you can get some serious power from the S54.

Porsche 911: dad has two of them, so I've got fond memories being in one. One of the original driver's cars - distinctive look that's sure to turn heads (unless you live in LA or SF, in which case you should be asking yourself why you live in either city.)

The newer ones are more luxurious than the previous ones but don't sacrifice performance to do so.

I think that the 1982-1984 bumpers, spoiler. and taillights without the ground effects is the better body style of what I think is the best looking 80's wedge car. 1989 is when they made the most power before adding airbags and 60 button steering wheels.

A G92 WS6 T5 formula to the GTA is comparable to what the LX 5.0 T5 was to the GT 5.0 T5. And I feel like I'm rambling about turd gens now.

If I ever had the money this would be my daily driver. Spray it Jet Black, swap the rims for a set of BBS, fix the engine up, deal with any potential rust areas and just the hell out of it.

Saw a regular A-class the other day and I must say this blue paint looks fucking amazing irl

There's something about the look of 60's F1 cars that just excudes style

Also what I like most about my S2000. I love going out just cruising and getting waves and thumbs up. I would like to either pick up a 944 someday or get a second job and get pic related though.

Would've bought one except everyone in my area that ran and wasn't covered in rust was ~14k. But that's alright, because they were tastefully modded. That and everyone I knew hated working on them. And they worked on them a lot.

Doesn't sound like too bad a deal, especially with the low mileage. I was looking at a Boxster too but then I saw the engine bay. Looks like it would be a pain to do anything myself.
