Budget Buys Game

As seen in this fabulous /Drive video, you'll be given a specific budget, $116,000 in the video, and you'll have to buy cars. All buys must be "bought" on Ebay. So when you're given a budget in this thread, hopefully once a week, please go to Ebay and find some cars that'll fit in the budget range. Remember that you'll want to have a daily driver and a sports car.

If you're not in America, please go to the American Ebay site so you won't have to do currency changes and stuff.

After making a list, please post a your list here (with links) (pictures are optional).

First budget:
$116,000
 
In that case I'll buy dad's pickup off him and rebuild the damn thing finally.
 
Audi RS5
$75,000

this'll be my daily driver and sports car

Ok I'm Starting over.

Here's my new list.

My personal sport cars:

With 5,622 my son's first car:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mazda-MX-5-...18073eb78&item=281327954808&pt=US_Cars_Trucks

$_57.JPG


1,922 left will be for my son to customize it xD
 
For the sake of having choices more suited to my liking I'll use $116,000 in my own currency. I have less money per car as they're more expensive but I don't need that many anyway, so without further ado:

2008 Mazda3 MPS - AU$14,950

$_12.JPG


http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2008-Maz...3396405?pt=AU_Cars&hash=item338cabb935&_uhb=1

2010 FPV GS 315 Ute 6sp Automatic - $31,990

$_57.JPG


http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2010-FPV...2303197?pt=AU_Cars&hash=item338d33a15d&_uhb=1

And then to accentuate the vulgarness and because I want something in a crazy colour...

LH Holden Torana SL/R 5000 Replica - AU$54,900

$_12.JPG


http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/1975-Hol...4897684?pt=AU_Cars&hash=item258c230e94&_uhb=1

Adds up to AU$101,840, the rest of which will probably be going towards a couple of months fuel for the Torana ;)

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mercedes-Be...a8fb8e0eb&item=251519361259&pt=US_Cars_Trucks

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Chevrolet-C...7e3a6eea4&item=171323092644&pt=US_Cars_Trucks
 
Do you have to spend the $116k on just cars, or can you spend that on parts? The parts will be bought off eBay, of course. :sly:

I love these games.
 
Isn't a 1978 Fleetwood Brougham and a 1990 Fleetwood Brougham largely the same car; just like the equivalent Caprices were?
