What car would you consider swapping the soarer for keeping within 15k above the soarer price(up to 25 - 30 grand)?

Mine are:-

R33 GTR
TT Supra 6 Speed
BMW 850i
1990 MERCEDES 500SL

Thought this would provide interesting discussion.

About the worst thing of owning a Soarer is that it spoils you for owning anything else.

Good question Joshua. I know the earlier models i.e. GS300/Aristo were all imported and I have a feeling the later model Lexus was as well.
Of course the N/A GS was not an import (grey).

Rod, if you know an RS6 available for less than the $30,000 specified in the question, don't buy it because it will have been crashed.

Also, TT is not part of its name.

Other than that, I will have one too thanks :-)

Only thing I could see myself swapping the soarer for would be either the Lexus IS-F or a Shelby GT-500, but we have now gone 'slighlty' above the $30k bracket!!!
