Okay so i have reduced my choices to an Evo 8 or 9, Skyline, Rx-7 or a civic.
Anyother suggestions are welcome.
Which one of those do you think I should buy? or can you suggest anyothers?

Civic, definitely!!! Best car in the world, why do you think there are so many?
Really a Civic over a skyline or an Evo....
Hey stupid. If you're that moronic enough to put a Civic in a list of car choices that includes an RX7, a Skyline or an EVO (whatever) then you deserve to get the Civic. Later, QD.Originally Posted by xthakila

You don't necessarily have to buy Japanese. For way less than 30k you could get a Volvo s60R, or a BMW 3 Series. Since you are looking used, you might want to consider these.
But no one can make cars turn like the Japanese...Sorry I sound like a fanboy...
Wow. I'd like to see the proof in that.
What's your budget?

Hey guys. I'm gonna take my girlfriend out for dinner next week. I've narrowed it down to these restaurants: Ruths Chris Steak House, Fogo de Chao, Mortons Steak House, Brio Tuscan Grille, or Taco Bell. Where should I take her!?
AGH HAHAHA!!
And have fun with all the legal crap that will come with that Skyline.
YES!!!!
Nu uh....
Turn as in RPM or as in outright handling?
Outright Handling...
My budget will depend on the car I decide on. I will save accordingly. Looking to pick up the car early in 2009.
So you've never heard of a Porsche?

Ok, I am not going to bash you, but...
The EVO 8 and 9 are both AWD and as a result, they naturally oversteer unless they have had a lot of work. The Civic should not be mentioned with the EVo's or the RX7 because if built, FWD will torque steer (not great for handling). Personally, I have no problem with the RX-7 other than it is down on torque a bit, but all things considered, a very good motor.
As for your comment on Porsche, pretty much every carb porsche (Pre-'76) will drive circles around any of the cars you are considering in the handling department. As for the Japanses cars turn better statement, do remeber that the early japanese suspension designs were actually british. Colin Chapman of Lotus, to be precise.
If you are looking at handling, look at older cars. The lighter the better. Maybe a Datsun 510 (hey, it is japanese), or a 240Z. European cars could be a BMW 320i or an Audi. If you actually have near 50k, look at a used 911. You will not do better in the handling department.

Genius!
Not to start another topic, but how do you figure? Do you mean under steer? Most AWD guy's myself included battle under steer on our cars more so than over steer. AWD cars are more neutral in there handling and even dive a bit like a FWD car until pushed to there limit. The exception being the STi and new Evo X which you can control the amount of torque sent to the rear wheels, thus allowing the cars rear to rotate. The stock WRX's and Evo's will under steer all day long unless you chuck it into a turn hard enough to get a four wheel drift, at which point you can get the nose to tuck in with some trail breaking. Just from my experience. I'm sure other AWD cars have different handling dynamics, but generally under steer is the unwanted gremlin.
Nice catch. I did intend to type understeer, but I was thinking too many sentences ahead. My fault,

I have but look at how much it costs...The GT is 193 I think that when I said my budget is flexible i should have put a bar at 50 lol
sorry for the confusion...
Wow. You're comparing apples to oranges. There is more than one BRAND NEW Porsche available for under 50K.
I just think that this is an asinine statement:
You should come back with a real budget and do some research.

You're not old enough to be on this site. I just know it.
Ok MSRTom I apologize for wasting your time just thought i would throw out some stuff to get an opinion on...Oh Well
I only put a Civic in there because someone recommended it to me.
If all you can do is talk trash please do not comment. Grow-up learn to offer constructive criticism not bash every comment you disagree with.

Do you think I could get hold of a Nissan Gt-R for 50K
you have got to be kidding....
as for some constructive criticism...stick to ur SUVs man...all of those cars you listed are too much for you to handle...especially since you know little to nothing about them...but if you are going to start somewhere...get a civic...
or better yet...look into getting a Geo Metro to start off...
lmao isnt true when you look under the hood, there is a sticker on the top that reads "not intended for highway use"
A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows public opinion.
maybe an SE-R

Sorry but I am lost...Legal crap???
Yes. Legal crap.
They are DOT ILLEGAL unless you have one of the "Motorex" cars. They are illegal on the federal level as they are not on the approved import list.
You get one shipped over, good luck getting it titled and then insured.

Did you not read my previous posts??
nope
import a S15 and build a Tsukuba Circuit car...
