    Default need some of your opinions

    ok so i currently have a 93 mazda rx7 and a 05 chevy cobalt for daily driving and whatnot..
    dont get me wrong i love my rx7 but when things go wrong with it i just dont have the time to fix them right away and i hate seeing it not running or something wrong
    but ive been thinking about getting rid of both of those and just picking up one car that is reliable and doesnt look to bad and is not slow...
    so what im thinking is getting rid of both and getting an 07 s2000,,,just cause ive always loved those cars..
    so what would you do keep both my cars now....or trade them in
    or trade them in for a different car and not an s2000..but tell what car..
    thanks

    Do you like the Cobalt? Why not swap it with the rotary for an SS? Maybe a Saturn Sky Redline?

    I doubt he's into the 12yr olds that find the car "cute". Also, he said he didn't want something slow.

    As for the Sky goes, the car is essentially a Pontiac Solstice but it doesn't look like sh*t. It's a sharp looking car and the Redline, which is turbocharged, supposedly hauls balls. I'd check it out. Could be a fun convertible that would suit your tastes. That, and you don't see them all over the place like an S2K.

    All I gotta say is if you're going to go through all this trouble, then at least get something new with a warranty. If you want a fun convertible, then look at S2K's, Miata's, Sky's, and the like. I'd skip the Supra since it'll be used and probably ragged on. Think about the long run and not just what you really want at the moment. Good luck.

    Default Recommendation

    I would suggest going to speedforsale.com
    They have some of the best cars availaible. If those car don't fit your budget, I would suggest getting a integra type r (pretty rare), toyota mr2 turbo, or Lancer Evolution MR.

    Acura Integra TYPE R



    MR2 Turbo



    Lancer EVO MR

    I don't think that he will quite have the bones to fork out for an MR.

    I say sell the Cobalt, get a nice DD, and throw an LS1 into the RX-7.

    If your dead set on a vert....then I guess I would go with the S2K ..... I am not a big fan of domestic vehicles and resale would probably be MUCH better on the Honda in 5 years than on the Sky. If you are thinking about something with a roof....... G35 all the way. Coupe or sedan...I drove a friends G35 sedan while in PCB for a truck\car show in March...it was wicket fast and a joy to drive. A set of 19"s .... a slight drop......drooooool

    g\l with the decision
