The FT-86 is definately on the short list.

or even the Hybrid
Image

The Kia Koup if they put the 2.4l and CVT in it, it already has paddle shift

I have already checked out the New Optima Platinum, sensational car with absolutely everything, only thing is it is a Falcon size car, i don't need a big car anymore, Damn
Image

Also the upcoming Opel Astra Vxr

Could also consider the New Focus XR5 2.0l Turbo

I also like the Golf GTi, but it is looking a little dated and doesn't look like changing anytime soon

Well I thought the point of this thread was to be realistic, maybe some people are lotto winners :)

I wouldn't mind:

But in a different colour.

If I had a bit more money:

I absolutely love that colour, it looks fantastic on the holden cars.

OR I'd settle for an XF

Currently thinking of a BMW E60 525i :) Can't afford the new model F10 528i.

But I agree with the majority, FT86 (Having worked for Toyota) is definitely coming and would definitely be on my mind.

Another one I thought of was the Skyline V36/G37. But being an import only car for now, that has been a bit of a long shot.

If anyone can find estimate pricing for the 86 that'd be awesome :P:)
I can't see it being over $50k, its meant to be 'entry-level'.
The big thing will be how much more it costs because this is Australia...

All options for me I can think of:
370z (not a fan of 350z's. Both a little bulkier than I'm after)
S2000 (quite possible. Kinda girly but I'm hardly a man's man)
Silvia S15 (kinda typical and rice and overpriced)

Btw I'm a 20 y/o pizza delivery driver so I wont be buying an 86 new as soon as they come out :P $16/h ftw.
The 'second car' dream might be MANY years in the future for me, but I'll see how I go :)

I would want to own a Commodore SS, but if I had $45k or so, I reckon I'd go for an SUV of some sort. A bit tired of scraping the front of the Lancer on steep driveways.
