If you earned more money, what cars would you be into?

I'm talking about something believable, for example, you just got a better paying job that earns $5,000 - $15,000 more per year.

Would you still be into 240sx?

If I earned more money I would spend my money on one of the following

I'm a muscle car fan too, so I'd likely buy a 1968 Dodge Charger
Or it was a newer car, I'd buy a Lancer Evolution IX

What would you change to? If not, what reason would you have If you'd stay with 240sx?

It depends how much money I made, but if I was in the next income bracket up, I'd buy a Hyundai Genesis probably. Maybe an S15, or maybe nicer parts for my S13's.

Same as above.

I'd still have both of my S13's. Probably just get a 350z for a bit of a change.

If I really did earn more money though, I'd put it toward a house. I don't need more cars.

I'd have probably 2 240's, a GTR or a 370z (depends on how much more money we're talkin), and G37xS Sedan.

I'd still be into old cheap japanese cars, although I'd probably buy a european sports car. Something impractical like a used ferrari, porsche, lotus, or something along those lines.

Last year I got a much higher paying job but am still into 240s. On my 6th one, although it isnt my daily anymore.

In the past ive had a CL55 AMG and a Lotus Exige while still having a 240sx. I dont know why but it doesnt seem like I can get away from these cars...

Next car is definitely a Porsche 911 Carrera S or GT3.

I already have an evo x, and my s14
I'd just leave the cars be, & put $$$ into getting a house.

One time I was financing both the evo & a 08 civic si.
It wasn't too smart at all in terms of managing $.

I'm an engineer, so I already make good money, but I still have my 240 because I still enjoy it so much. About to start playing with my Jeep Cherokee. Right now I really wish I could find a good, cheap 911 from the 80's. The Ruah Welt cars have made me really appreciate the lines of those cars. Other cars I'd love to build:

1964 Lincoln Continental
1969 Ford Torino (Nascar/Talladega style)
1968 Camaro
240z
current gen WRX hatch (new daily)
3rd-gen RX-7

Porsche Cayman S...although, those are not out of reach even now. 2yr old versions (6sp, Aero package, with good options) can be had for $35,000.

It's basically a Carrera from the firewall forward...and they look and handle GREAT!

The problem is, most people when making some more money and wanting a more expensive car is that they are not thinking of the total cost of ownership (payment+interest+maintenance+insurance+gas+etc.).

It is very easy to forget about the REAL cost of ownership when you are just thinking about how much the cost of a car is according to payments.
