I Recently rented a Chrysler 300s and had a lot of fun. I was interested in getting something that has more horsepower than a Nissan Altima(current vehicle). maybe something with a bigger engine, im looking for something within 50K price as it will be used by me and my brother. any suggestions?

Reliability, performance, price:  Pick any two of the three, but you can’t have all three.  Are you looking for a sedan or a coupe?  How much horsepower?  Options include:

Assuming 4-door sedan with >300 hp, reliability in mind, and around your price tag:
- Lexus GS350,  IS350 (both in F-sport packages) - both are RWD platforms

- Toyota Camry V6 with TRD Package (FWD platform)

Also, be conscious of insurance.


I actually wouldn't mind a coupe only because it is usually just 2 people at most. but i was looking for something with power as I got an Altima and didn't want a Turbo on my car.

I wouldn't recommend a Chrysler 300, FCA products are usually junk from a reliability standpoint.

For $50k you can get a Lexus IS350 or a Lexus RC300 - both excellent sporty cars.

And for a bit over that (around $60k) a Lexus IS500 (472HP 5.0L V8, 0-60mph in 4.4 seconds)


for sure I wouldn't get that car, but I did like how it felt in terms of power. I'm from Los Angeles so that car has a bad stigma as it is.

Maybe a V6 Camry or if you want a race car type Civic type R.


honestly, i don't like the civic because of the body style of it, or maybe because I see that car to much that it lost its appeal for me


So the 2023 Civic type r is going to be a newer body style and it doesn't look like the sedan or hatchback so it's its own style of car and you don't see that many of the type r. Then it comes to if you want quality and reliability or the look of something; if you want a car with good power/race car type then this is a good reliable one.

Test drive the Accord 2.0T
