Help! Tuff choices...

Hey there fellow VIPs.. so, here I am, in the military.  I am currently deployed in Kuwait right now, and I have saved up enought money to go towards a new ride.. my older rides consisting of a nissan truck, honda civic turbo'd, 240sx boosted also, and now without a car payment, i saved mula dinero'... so, I had some time to think about what i want to spend my 36k budget on.... so, here are the choices.. (one obviously is going to be different doing the VIP setup, can you guess which one?  lol, not planning on it thought...)  what do you think?   and suggestions on other cars would be great too..  infiniM35, BMdubM3, 5-series.. etc... 
 
what would you purchase with a 36k budget?

The Chrysler drives horribly, but looks okay with some work done to it.  The GS300 drives well, and looks fantastic with some work done to it.  The Mustang, well it just doesn't interest me at all because it sucks at cornering.

thanks for the info.. i have not test drove any of them, but when i get to San Diego, I plan to do some test driving not 100% sure what i am going to get.     THANKS

Well imo id go with some sorta infiniti. If you just want a VIP style car ive allways loved the M45s, they are just soooooo sexy. If you want something performance but also sexy and somewhat higher end get the G35 coupe with a 6 speed. The thing is faster than a mustang and you get alot better value for your money.
 
If I had 36k burnin a hole in my pocket id buy 2 or 3 cars!

out of those i'd go with the 300. i've always liked that car and when adapted to vip style they definitely hang imo. not a fan of the new gs or mustang.
 
but i think you should 1) make better choices and 2) buy something under budget and get mods. 
 
i've still got a huge boner for y34 m's and ucf30's. 2 cars that are thoroughbred vip cars and can be found with low miles and even certified with some cash to spare for mods.

m45 or the ls430

hmm, i am going to have to look into these.. thanks for the opinions folks..

Second-gen GS, LS430, LS400 in that order.  Hopefully whatever is available is in great working condition.  That way you can spend the rest of what you saved on mods.  :)
