Shopping for a Daily Driver - What would you get?

[Rickmustang]

I have started shopping for a daily driver. I've decided to keep my old 7.3 Super Duty instead of getting a new one, and get a coupe. I'm leaning towards an Infiniti Q60 red sport coupe. I may wait to see what the new GT 500s are going to sell for, but ADMs will probably kill it for me. Not sure I want a GT 350. Audi RS5 coupe is too expensive. A Mustang GT with track pak? I'm ok with used. Even thought about a Nissan GTR. Since we have a thread on what other car you would get besides your daily driver, I thought you could help me think about options for a daily driver, foreign or domestic....

Going from a 7.3 F series to a more comfortable/practical daily driver? I went to a fully loaded Flex. Don't laugh......best car I have bought and enjoyed driving for hours at a time....

I think the 2013-2014 GT500's are underrated. Fantastic cars.

Super low mile cars can be had at $15-$20K off MSRP.

Especially if you are hanging on to the SUPERDUTY.

SHO - 2011 to current - lots of fun - dependable
Mustang GT - not one bad word on these cars
GT 350 - daily driver maybe not - quart of oil every 250 to 500 miles
65-66 Fastback - IMHO is the way to go - but then I'm not a normal person :-)

Staying within the "brand" and still having a practical performance vehicle you might consider the Ford Edge ST. Saw this beast at the B.J. auction, the wife even likes it.

Don't intend to bad-mouth Ford (my wife and I both have Ford DD's), but keep in mind there are issues with paint peeling/bubbling on aluminum body panels.

+1  Our 2016 Explorer has bubbling across the front of the hood.  Thankfully, I understand it is covered through the 5 year corrosion warranty.  Anyone else have input?

Love my 2016 Mustang GT Premium, 6 speed with 3.55 gears.  Perfect daily driver and makes my commute fun for past 3 years.   Android auto and large touch screen are wonderful.

Regular Edge is very cool looking rig.
Is the ST AWD?

[Rickmustang]

Great suggestions. Never knew of the Edge ST. A 13-14 GT 500 is a good idea too.

I have a Jeep Trackhawk as my DD.  707hp.  0-60 in 3.3 sec.  1/4 mile in 11.5 sec/117 mph. 
Handles and stops great. 
Looks enough like a regular Grand Cherokee to be a bit stealthy.
I love smoking Teslas with it.

Lincoln Towncar any year 2000 going forward. 86 to 89 Towncars are great too

Yes it is AWD.

I don't think the towncar has the performance I'm looking for 😆🤣

[deathsled]

I hear you. My Towncar is sedate. But gives great contrast when I get into the Hertz or the 89 Saleen.
