Theres some well priced 740 BMWs for sale. At under $5000, you really couldnt lose, and they still look respectable going down the road.

The Toyotas are awsome buying if you find the right one! but dont forget the Nissans either! as they are a better engine over all and there are a few options as said above like the Cima, Gloria, Gran Tursimo and Cedric

Aussie v8 cars are good cars, lots of room , parts are cheapand there are loads of aftermarket parts for themyeah sure japstuff handles betterand goes abit faster out of the boxbutspare parts will costyou for example you can get a holdencommodore bottom ball joint for $15you can't get anything for anissan for $15.both 90's holden and fords will do 500,000kms with servicing sure they aren'tnewtec like a 5.4litre four camor a ls1but those motors alone cost 5k. american stuff is good butcomes at a price andwon't handle or stop well enoughcertainly not for $5kunless its some ugly pile of rust , you know the ones where the add says perfect for a panel beatersome rust repairs required cars are carschoosewhat you like the look ofor sound of andmake it your own

Only if you're adding 20k to the budget.

Well yeah, maybe for a 'factory' one, surely you could get a 'homemade' V8 for a reasonable sum! like a homemade TR8 :)

Even those go for a lot - 15k upwards for a reasonable condition car that is road worthy. Factory cars are around the 25-30k+. And MGBs are the cheapest of the factory V8s built by MG.
