If you were to choose a car, which would you pick

[HyPer50]

Sorry about that , I thought I did.. The problem with that car is that it is rare, real... real.. rare. I looked thru the auto trader and there was ONE, it was like a teal color which is not my style.. the other thing is they are likely ragged like the other performance cars. IF I were to find one in good condition I would definatly consider it!

Hmmm.... thats weird, I just looked on autotrader.com and there are atleast 6 on the first page of results within 50 miles of my zip code.... http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/search...lor=&x=111&y=7

Also.... You can rag out mustangs... thats what they are built for, as long as the car hasn't been redlined often, running it hard won't hurt it a bit.

[Spyder]

True, but I would still like to see a TT GTO.

Problem with the while TT thing is it cost about another 1/3 of the price of the car.. in other words, I would love to see it to it just wont be on my car

[Spyder]

I checked auto trader the other night, and found about 6-7 in a 100 mile radius of 30022.

I will check again

I see ZERO that fit exactly what I was looking for , apparently the teal one sold. again due to my specific circumstances I can not get a car over 25,000.00 on the page you listed there were a few, they were NOT under 25k, i can call on the "unlisted" ones and check but I have a feeling they are a bit more then im looking to spend.

Hmmm... I found a Mineral gray one on page 2 for $24,995.. Anyways, was just tryin' to help out with my opinion, which is what you asked for lol.

My dream car... 06 RSX Type-S

[Vteckidd]

newer than 2000
under $25,000

I would choose:
1) S2000
One of the best handling cars ever made. Spirited driving is a must in this car, and it begs to be driven hard. However its cramped space i hear for long driving periods.

2) RSX Type S
Beautifull car, great handling, great looks, great comfort. Very quick car, awesome interior IMO, Honda reliability, Easy to mod and make fast with minimul cost and no sacrifice in reliability.

3) 01 ITR
A legendary car. Very underated for its age. Great handling car, great Honda platform, reasonably priced, very hard to find one with low mileage however. ask any ITR owner, they are great cars. very well BALANCED.

4) 01 Camaro SS
Last year for the production of the camaro. Not a great handling car, but it is FAST. 330hp on tap, easy to mod and make fast, so so interior. You can tell that chevy focused on the engine, and didnt touch the 1985 interior. However, they are very cheap, and have held up pretty well. i have a friend that owns one.

5) FD RX7
I know tyou said newer than 2000 year, but it is one of the best looking and handling, and faster cars of the 90s. even by todays standards, its stil considered a super car. YOu can find them with low mileage and in great shape, due to their loyal following. I would be weary of their track record however. some of them have been known to be maintanence whores. but my uncle has one, and for the last 5 yhears he has had NO PROBLEMS with his what so ever.

other than that, i think the cars i would want are way out of your price range. i dont know what a 2000-2003 Vette goes for, but it might be something to look at if they are within that price range. G35 coupes, i have a hard time believing they are under $25,000, even used. but i could be wrong.

I have always liked the R32 Golfs, but you already have a VW so nevermind.

[Vteckidd]

Edit: i would NEVER by a mustang lol, i respect them, and there are some nice ones out there, but i dont think i would actually buy one ever.

[Vteckidd]

Oh and i forgot:
Subaru WRX- you can get 02-03 base models for under 20K. STIs can be found withing the 25K price range if you look hard.

Mitsubishi EVO-no need to explain

That's false. Last year of the F-Body was '02. That includes Camaro and FireChicken.

[GsrTurbo320]

Bmw M3!

[Buford®]

My jetta as it sits would have beat it up, but that isnt the point I suppose as we are comparing "factory" cars. Also "slow" is a relative term I do like the fact that it is available "fully" loaded. I may be a bit biased and be looking more for a RWD or AWD car but that doesnt mean I will rule anything out, atleast until I drive it.

Fair enough. So you still want to check mine out tonight?

[Vteckidd]

i thought 01 was the last year? oh well, shows how much i pay attention to domestics

[Kevykev]

Lots of cars decent Pre-Owned sport coupes, compacts and luxury sedans fall in that price range.

Good Luck

Change in plans: I would own a 6 speed "I'm hammered."

lotta Family Guy lately man

[Chuckster]

i change my mind i would pick the pontiac solstice. Brand spanking new car under 20, http://www.pontiac.com/solstice/index.jsp

i will be test driving one today on my lunch break

[HiPSI]

with the solstice the beauty is truly what's within... because the exterior is ugly as hell .

[SLOWR/T]

i would go with a 03-04 cobra or a EVO. matter of fact i know where a 03 EVO is that been taken care of. if your looking for one. the cars never been to the drag strip and has never been launched. if your interested shoot me PM.

03-04 cobras make rediculous (sp) power with little mods. i got a friend that just bought his 4th one yesterday and they all made 450-500 easy.

Saturn's version looks better.

[HiPSI]

Saturn's version looks better.

yes, yes it does.

[devinwebb907]

if you dont want the g35/350z way...i say get an s2000. i'm not the biggest fan of hondas, but id like to see more tuned s2000's around.

[Spyder]

Im going to drive basically everything that has been listed in this thread.. it was for the most part already on my list, then i will decide from there.. thanks everyone for their input!

[Ms Dollar]

my friend has an SRT4 and he said that the parts for it are cheap as hell to do stuff to it, so that would be my vote...and it's still a 4 door...

[devinwebb907]

is300 and buy a turbo kit? always a good choice.

[Big Baller]

99-2000 chevy corvette frc (fixed roof coupe)

Yep

[Big Baller]

I considered the EVO and STI both in used condition are ragged pieces of shit.. unfortunatly

George, aka sleepingtalon on here

Has a STI he is trying to get rid of, its bone stock and in perfect condition, he doesnt ever drive it.

[YoshiFD3S]

I almost got an S2000 myself last year.

In that price range I'd go Evo or STI personally.

S2000 is great, but only if I were to build the motor for single-turbo.

I would say a decked out S2K looks a heluva lot better than any Evo or STI, though. And LAST YEAR, S2K's with maybe 30k miles were roughly 18k, so an S2K is def. in your price range.
