^^ any suggestionsnew or used, not really lookin for anything in particular, other than a fun to drive car, and it has pretty good realiability

 

You can get a used 2002 SE-R for like 11k with low miles.....pretty quick, or a used SRT-4 for like 16k. Or a brand new Scion Xb, may not be fun to drive, but damn you can pimp it out.........also a slightly used 1.8t, jetta or golf

 

Madza 3?

or a 01 CLS

 

come on now, he said "RELIABLE"...lol

 

Is300 or S2000?

 

srt 4 is probably your best bet or a cls with high miles for like 20,000

 

6mt maxima, thats what i would get.

 

the maxima would not be a bad idea i had a 1999 se and no problems and looks great....not to crazy about the 2002-2003 shape.

 

Mazda6, Altima 2.5

 

6th Gen Accord EX V6 (reliable).

A used Mini Cooper would probably fit the bill in the fun to drive category

 

I see CL-S's in this price range all the time. This is the CL board!
Hell, dealer offered me $19,500 for my 03 CLS 6 speed, 14k miles.

 

New Mazda 3

 

what about a WRX, how are they in terms of reliabilty, and how are subaru maitanence costs

 

i just bought my CL-S @ a dealer, certified with 50,250 miles, chrome rims and what not for $19,700 out the door (roughly 18k b4 t+l)

get a CL-S!

 

i have one allready in the family

 

hmm....well then

get a DubRX then!!

or PERHAPS...

a used M3? like a 95-98

 

used IS 300
Madza3

 

you can be in a brand spanking new Civic Si for 20 grand MSRP. by the time you talk with the dealer you can have the keys to the Si title,tax and ready to roll for 20 easy.

 

yea i was considering a E36 M3 then i decided wasnt down for the maitanence costs, Si's are nice but right now i want something bigger, hatch wont do, im reallin wondering how the WRX will be realibity wise

 

nissan spec v..

 

there's one member on here(i forget who) had 3 Subarus and he said the biggest issue is poor seals and retaining fluids. He said after about 62,000(ish) most seals were shot. and the mechanic wanted big $$ to repair so he traded to a CL. but what do you expect Subaru is partners with GM

 

Hmmm...I saw some 2000 Audi S4's on AutoTrader for 20k and under.... that's what I'm actually thinking about. Gotta get rid the CL before more problems!

 

Toyota Corolla S

 

MAZDA Protege 5 or 3 5 door. My gf has a Protege5 and it is awesome and fun to drive.

 

Thats crazy. Thought people were able to get those cars for 15k cause Honda can't sell em.

Came across an srt4 today, thats a mean llittle car, would probably check one of those out.

 

Yamaha R1... tons of fun.. or R6 cheaper too...
