Help me decide what to buy!

Im going to be soending about $25 grand on a car after I graduate in April. I have narrowed it down to 2 choices.

1. 2001 CL Type S W/ABOUT 20,000 MILES

2. 2003 Subaru RS or WRX

The CL is much more luxerious and better looking I think, but I will have to buy used and there isnt that much as far as mods go to make it faster

The RS is about $19 grand and theres a $2800 performance kit that will raise the HP to 320+ HP. Thats 108 MPH mid 12 secs.

The WRX is about $24 grand and comes with like 220 HP and has a million mods that can be done.

I dont know if I should go for speed or luxery. I could do some crazy shit to that Subaru and Im going to be in the Miami area so Ill have plenty of opportunities run against some fast cars.

Let me know what you guys think.

Do you want luxury or do you want speed, that is the only question you need to ask yourself. From there the answer is simple.

I just read your in the Miami area. Screw it just pimp it. Buy a 1996 S420 MB or a 1993 840csi and put 18s-20s on it with Limo tint, That's all you need.

If I could get the RS from the dealer with a few more luxery options like leather and a better stereo or something it would be a much easier choice. The seats are nice in the Subaru, they are racing seats, but Id like a little style, you know? The interior is kinda plain.

From a stop yes, but on a roll it will be close.
