Maybe the c6 and CTS-V are both over 60K new...

But with Gm depreciation value, they won't be for LONG!

classic GM resale value. the second you sign for it and drive off the lot, your 80k ctsV is now worth 50k.

thats why c5 vettes and 4th gen fbodies are really great values

I'd probably go for a BMW 330ci, that seems to be a pretty popular choice too Or maybe an Audi 1.8T Quattro.. but enough dreaming, the BMW is way too damn expensive for me

I can't believe a fully-loaded Accord is just under 60k. What a piece of garbage.

fully loaded accords aren't THAT expensive, my mom drives a EX-V6 and it only came out ot be over 30 something K, i think what people mean here is that you can get one for about 30k and then mod the out of it with another 30k

Ah, that would make much more sense, though the original poster certainly didn't seem to imply that.
