    I'd have a (European) TVR Cerbera in chameleon purple paint with a few optional extras. Dunno what $50,000 is in pounds sterling, but I think it'd just about cover it.

    EDIT: Ho hum. 50,000 Aussie $ = 20,580.16 GBP. I'll just go rob a bank

    Buy a European car and a Japanese bike.
    Would it be possible, to play forever?
    The conclusion reached was that a player is inevitably doomed to lose.

    I would buy a couple year old Camaro and tune it up. Wheels, suspension, brakes, supercharger, racing seats, ect. I would make it faster than a vette.

    That would get a 964 turbo 2, and a few £££s left over for wheels, suspension, brakes, other performance mods.
    Thanks for all the fish

    IF I had $50,000 I'd get a WRX STI, then get myself a motorcycle and with the extra money, I'd take your wives to dinner.
