BAIC - Need Input

So I have a friend who's father is looking to get a fast car for the 60-100k range brand spankin' new.

I have compiled a list for a few of the cars he is looking into plus a few of my own.

I just wanted a check to those who know expensive cars and make sure my list looks good.

If you have any additions please include all the information you can (HP/TQ, MSRP...etc.)

TESLA!

He's prime for a TESLA!

Besides, it will pay for itself compared to any gasoline car

0-60 in 3.9

I completely forgot about Tesla.

Thank you!

Rau - he only wanted base MSRP (mostly dude to the fact that an extra 20-30k won't bother him at all).

Um...economy cars - he is normally pretty tight on his moolah - but his brother is a huge Porsche-phile and took him for a ride in a 911-S and he loved it.

Before I read this I was going to suggest getting a used 911 turbo... More suitable for the older generation. Oh wellz
