    Rs3 awd turbo 2.5 liter 5 cylinder with 400 hp (small hatch rocket), rs4 avant 3 liter v6 turbo with 450 hp (wagon slightly harder to position than the rs3 roughly same speed), or mustang 2018 GT v8 Naturally aspirated 470 hp (porma but no way in hell it will hook up in 1st and 2nd gear). Both audi's will hit 100kmh in 4 secs dead all the time due to the awd. The mustang will hit that in a drag strip only. Normally 5+ secs due to the traction issues. Though it is the best sounding of the lot.

    The rs3 and rs4 are more liveable on a day to day basis as they are true 5 seaters with 5 doors. I never really could use the mustang i had before with the kids.

    Bro, I wish I have your problems. If you ask me, I would go with the RS4 Avant. A performance wagon can double up as a family car.

    Maybe if you have a bit more to spare, why not the uberwagon Audi RS6 Avant?

    The Audi RS4 or the Mercedes C63S AMG Estate: Choose your poison. Hehehehe

    Unless we have highways like the autobahn, that is home to the ubersedans and uberwagons (Audi RS6/RS7, BMW M5, Mercedes E63S AMG). These vehicles define what are the good things in motoring - lots of class, comfort, features, 600hp+ powerplants, quickness comparable to supercars (0-100kmh in 3+ seconds).

    I like the M cars but RWD just doesnt do it for me in our roads.

    The mustang is the best bang for buck and will always and forever be a looker. And the sound of 5 liters of american democracy cant be beat. But its a 2 door and a 2+2 (child) seater.

    The RS3 and RS4 are surgical german monsters but crazy expensive. They look boring as well. Though on a day to day basis they will be the fastest. Ive only ever been to a track 2x in my.life anyway. Point to point acceleration these RS cars will blow away everything else except a supercar. Though they will prob match the supercar.

    The new BMW M5 is AWD already. They say BMW designers have come to the conclusion that with the new M5, its performance attributes requires an AWD setup. There is one trick though. The new M5 is designed to decouple its AWD system and become RWD at speeds over 150 mph.

    I need to change my profession to be able to afford one. This one rocks. Can choose between AWD (safety and control), rear biased AWD (fun starting), or full RWD (hooligan time).

    Kapag CEO na si Jut, makiki-joyride na tayo sa bling ride nya. Hehehehe

    I will be happy to land a CIO position within the next few years (before retirement) in any of the big local companies and maybe get a very good perk of a car plan.

    The trick is having a side business. My job pays well but not that well to buy these cars. I realized this a long time ago.

    Ive been lucky with some of my investments which have paid off or are starting to pay off and my ongoing side business. Helps that the wife is also a businesswoman.

    Looking to get into some investments (real estate and business) but realistically not anytime soon. I've decided that it'll be more prudent to stick to my corporate job and slowly but steadily build my savings while waiting for my fiance to finish med school and residency training. When we both have stable incomes, that's probably the best time to dive into riskier ventures.

    Yes bro Jut. Whenever you can start diversifying into real estate (rentables or lots for build and sell later on). Stocks are good but the big bucks is in build and sell (real estate). For me this was the best side business an employed person like myself could get into.

    My friend and mentor recently got back into build and sell, was able to buy a piece of property last year and just renovated the house and now is getting offers at 300% her purchase price. Kaso she decided to live in it nalang. Beautiful house. [emoji7]

    Hoping to have enough funds for that later on. [emoji16]
