Thinking of buying a new car...

I was thinking of buying a new car..

Im sick of the slow-matic 3.0

I was thinking of getting a newer 98-2000 manual...

Something 4dr prolly that has a potential of speed but then again can still LOOK nice i.e.. passat/jetta 1.8t not sure of what else tho :\

Any ideas?

Not too many Supras around, you'll probably get lots of looks.

S4 kicks a lot of cars asses but I don't want to be around if stuff starts to break in a used Audi/VW/Mercedes.

i might be trading mine in for a Nissan SE-R Spec V or a Honda Accord V6 both 2004 but i will wait till 2005 so that the price of both will be lower but they will have not any or less to nothing on it

the tranny for the 3.0's suck and since the 97 is not covered makes me even more to buy a new car, ive also been looking at the audi like klepto said but my main choice is a new 2004 TL

I'm also in the process of selling my 3.0. I am seriously looking at the 1.8t's..but I have been talking to a lot of people who have them and it seems to be split 50\50 with satisfaction...those who have taken care of them have no complaints..but those who abuse them have infinite problems.
