Nissan Murano convertible.... case closed

Please don’t make me explain why the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet needs to be at the top, or near the top of this list.

I’d call this a risky bet. On the one hand a used Model 3 is good way to get a decent performing EV on the Tesla charger network. On the other hand it’s Hertz so there’s a very real possibility of being pulled over and held at gunpoint because they reported the car stolen.

Infiniti.

For half that, I’d buy it and Coyote swap it. It would be a sleeper. In more ways than one. 

This has Uncle Rico with a dash of serial killer vibes.

But naked women with guns?

The correct answer is to never give your money to a juvenile Nazi shitlord or his companies.

Any Malaise Era “performance” car. They were all stripes and decals with V8s churning out less than 200 horsepower in many cases.
