If you could only have 3 cars, but each have to be under 100k, what would you choose?

Title. If msrp is a bit over but still close to 100k, then it counts.

Autobacs-NSX@reddit
I wouldn’t go out of my way to criticize your car bro. I’m sure it’s a great car for you. My only issue is this dude going around saying the em2 is “elite knowledge” so.. em2.. No si or R, no 4x double wishbone, no more hydraulic power steering, drive by wire, soft suspension, ugly, underpowered, etc. it’s just generally unliked in the Civic community as Honda took most of the fun out of the beloved EK generation for it. Again, if you just want a reliable Honda it’s a fine, fine car. But the EM2 is not “elite knowledge” Civic. I’m just catchin this kid out who probably can’t even drive, like I said, glazing all 2000s cars because it’s easy upvotes
No-Relationship-2169@reddit
Calm your tits bro I’m screwing with you. I added my own list which was CT5V Blackwing, raptor and a caterham.

I can do you one better, keep the total cost under $100k. We have two vehicles in our household, a 2021 MX-5 and a 2022 Honda CR-V. The third car would be another MX-5 but in manual. The only reason I have an automatic MX-5 is my wife can't drive manual and since I work from home, she will often take my Miata leaving me with the SUV.

“If msrp is a bit over but still close to 100k, then it counts.”
Did I answer the wording more than the intent, yes.
If I wanted to really abuse that I could say 993 GT2 because it’s official MSRP was just over 100k.
