If you know a few things about fixing cars you can get a nice classic car for that money - could be American muscle late 60s/early 70s or European for more classic style

like

E.g., a mustang with a brand new crate motor, a datsun 240z, a corvette all will be under $40K easily

All fine, but not unique enough to realize your intended goal. I’d recommend a used 4c. They’ll hold their value well so you could profit off it at this point.

Drop panties then with 40k I’d get a used Porsche Cayman

Truth to be told is most “non-car people” would care way more about the brand itself than the model. So a 40k Porsche would be hard to beat for impressions, compared to say a 50k BMW M3.

You can get a Range Rover supercharged for that money.

A bit older, but a nice early 2000's aston Martin db7 vantage (12 cyl and manual transmission). That would at least make you more of a connoseur.

As long as you have the money to fix said transmission, this is a strong move

Just be sure you have 2K /yr for misc repair expenses. May not need it, but just expect it.
