    Do you realize that the GT and LX 5.0s are the same motor? My LX is not a 4cyl. LX also weighs less than the GT. Still think that SC has a chance?

    I guess you are lucky due to the fact that there's chicks out there dumb enough not to see you drive an 11 year old rebaged toyota not worth much anymore... All they see is LEXUS... sad ... sad... sad..

    If you need a car to get chics , you are one sad individual.

    its sold as a lexus, the soarer is a whole different motor from my car so i dont know what you're talking about there, the soarer is a 1jz and my car is a 1UZ-FE

    regardless its still a nice car and ranges from prob 5-15k depending on year and condition. and whats wrong with an 11 yr old car??? 69 camaro remains a favorite of mine, age doesn't matter for a car that you like

    and no i dont need a car to get chicks, it was a joke to explain why i like to work on the looks of the car first since its my daily. i got em all the time back when i rode dirty in my accord that i took horrible condition of lol.
    besides most girls haven't even seen my car, i'm too busy being jewish riding in friend's cars shotgun because i'm too much of a tight ass to pay for gas



    and david i dont know much bout mustangs, but i'd like to think i could still win haha, we should chill sometime, it'll be entertaining either way

    seriously though. forget all these fanboys ranting about integras and 240s and eclipses, etc. etc. if you are dead serious about an ALL AROUND car, listen to the guy telling you to get an E30 325is. or the guy who wanted to sell you his VW. I dont' own either of those, so you know i'm not just gassing them up. you said you didn't want to change every little part in the e30 right away, but you definitely wouldn't. it's 170 hp, PLUS a limited slip that's virtually bulletproof (like the motor). you'd be surprised at how it drives.

    if you want to get into racing, on the track, it's great (SCCA and NASA have road racing programs for it, plus it's a GREAT autocross car w/ the right suspension upgrades). eventually, you could swap in an E30 M3 motor in there for cheap and MURDER any Civic you share a highway with. V6, 5-speed, limited slip (on is models). Stay way from anything that says 325es, 325e, or 325. those are the "eta" engines made for efficiency. they only rev up to about 5000rpm. not a good look on the track, lol. plus, they look killer on BBS basketweaves.

    240Sx is a great all around car with a zillion parts available and cheap to own/maintain. You can also pick your body style/appearance, all the fundamentals are basically the same (I went S14 because I like newer interiors). Lots of options for power, LSDS, suspension, fit pretty big wheels/tires, etc etc. The E30 is a cool choice too, but it is a BMW, so some things will cost more. Miata is another nice fun RWD car with lots of available parts, the small size of wheels, tires, brakes, etc helps keep costs down. For AWD I really like the old 2.5RS, but they need a lot of stuff done to be pretty fast, and cost way more than $3k. For $3k, I say look for a lightly modded 240SX or maybe E30 (not sure exactly what they/parts cost).
