Default Re: What's the best V8 powered car for under $10k?

As I said he wants to use it as a family transporter and likes the V8 grunt and a bit of performance.

So the SUV V8 cars are legitimate alternatives too.

Personally I think a low km BA I6 is also a viable alternative (sedan or wagon), the Barra I6 disposes of Ford V8s before it, plenty of torque for cruising/towing, cheap to fix and availability of parts. I think it even eclipses the 3V 5.4 V8 of the BA range.

But he just wants a V8. fair enough. So id lean towards BA 3V 5.4 or maybe LS1 with low km. But no Cherokee laredo Glen!! NO NO No!
