New Member Needs Help 100-120k budget

Hi All, Newbie here from Vegas. Been a lurker for some time now.

Currently in the stable:

- 2012 Cayenne w/ Turbo II wheels & tinted lights and painted moldings
- 2013 Lexus GS F-Sport

I've got a dilema and need your help. Wanting a new car and I have a budget of 100-120k. I'm don't drive fast, I don't track cars. Please don't laugh.

I'm looking for a status symbol that reflects maximum success and turns heads within budget.

My options:

- Porsche 911S
- Fisker Karma
- Aston Martin V8 Vantage
- Masarati Grantarismo
- Panamera GTS

I test drove all of them. The best rides are the Fisker Karma & 911S. The vantage is a beast but shifts jerky its a bit brutal. So is the Masarati. The GTS it's amazing but I'm not sure if the two Porsche's are head turners like the others.

Leaning toward Karma ( Yes I know it has a tone of issues but it's stylin BUT financing sucks on Fisker. mandatory 25% down to buy...(

Fisker Karma is the one for you. It's the slowest and will get you the most attention. You'll be the talk of the town when the batteries fail or it catches fire too.

Ok I'll try again,

I'm looking for something that turns the most heads, Is that better?

whats showing up in your life to act like a douche to others? 0-8 years old did you spill mud on daddy's pants and he yelled at you? Grow up and show a little class.

hahahaha so funny bugs bunny, I'm just looking for some advice and the welcoming party is a bunch of computer bullys filled with hurt on the inside acting out to make themselves feel better about themselves.

Wanting a car as a "status symbol" that "turns heads" = douchebaggery of the highest order.
