Yeah, it does appear to be a super awesome car. Wish I could!
I'm not sure if I have anything that I'd sell for less that would actually appeal to you.
I paid about 15k for this one:

(Not all my cars are million dollar exotics!)
That one is a pretty sexy car.
I like the Audi better than that, especially in the climate I live
Oh, I paid just 3k (plus shipping) for this one:

That's the cheapest one I've purchased at auction.
However... I don't think it's "you". It's really not the kinda car you're into. Sure, it's efficient, reliable, and has the required things like a stereo and air conditioning that still works...
But...
I worked with a guy who was a recording studio owner a few years back that drove one of those and raved about it. LoL I played 'she's a whore' for him and he said you're awfully blunt. LoL
LOL Well, I spent like 4k total on it. With shipping, it'd be 5k if I sold it at cost and charged nothing for storing it. I'd also still have the mechanics go over it with a fine tooth comb before selling it.
I spent 9k on this one, but I really, really don't want to sell it.

You'd fucking love that. That's the kind of car you get driven in - or you drive like a maniac between cities at like triple digits on the highway.
I am used to driving my Jaguar. A couple years ago I bought a cheap chevy car for just to drive in the winter to save my Jaguar from the ravages of winter driving and after a couple days in that car, I thought to myself, what the fuck am I doing in this when I could be driving my Jag. So I got rid of it.
Yeah, the Fiat is (likely) a little peppy and fun to drive, but it's not a damned thing like a Jag.
It'd be a step up from a broken Jag, but a step down from your Jag if it's running properly. Even though it's newer, reliable, and efficient - it'd still be a step down from your older Jag.
I bought it 'cause I was kinda bored and it was 3k.
If I recall correctly, some dude bid a grand. I bid three grand. Nobody said a goddamned thing and I bought a Fiat for 3k.
