I was thinking about an IS300 but, when i drove it, it felt like i was driving a truck. What other luxury, sporty, not to much money cars are out there? Thanks

G35 Coupe, all the way!!!!

G35 sedan is too soft for me. I was driving one on my local go fast twisties, and almost lsot it several times because I was going MUCH FASTER than it felt.... The sound isolation is Stunning!!!

I wouldn't go with the Acura 3.2TL...I know a guy with one and he hates it.

Used S4 or A4 1.8T. Could find a used S4 for around 30K and a used A4 for around 20K-25K.

older Lexus SC400 or SC300, heard they are nice and the V8 on it and the LS400 is one of the most reliable engine ever built recently. You can find them for under $14k for the older models with some miles on 'em.

SC400 is soarer in japan rite? i saw some dyno videos of supras and there was this one SC400 (in america) and it was pretty nuts too... cept it had a VCR..... i was like WTf?? A VCR?!? haha probably like marky mark.... stuck in the 80's :gap:

if it were up to me, i'd get a 330i.... i test drove IS.... interior bugs me...... and g35 is an infiniti.... lets just say im not a nissaan fan. :p especially after what happened to SE-R... overhyped, also the car was overrated in terms of power in beginning.... my confidence was pretty much shot.

yup SC400 is the Soarer. Though in Japan you had three models to choose from, one with the 2JZ-GE (US spec '94-'98 Supra N/A), one with the 2JZ-GTE (US spec '94-'98 Supra TT), and one with the 1UZ-FE (US spec Lexus V8 250 HP, 260 FT/LBS). As you can see the Soarer TT was the hot mama for Japan, but out here we only get the 2JZ model and 1UZ. Though there is an S/C kit for the SC400 which would make that thing pretty boss :)

BTW, when I said with some miles I mean like 80k+ (engine lasts to 200+ miles with good maintainence though)

Good luck with that! The sport package on the S-Class has the monoblock 18s and those are pretty low-pro. You would think it be hard to put 19s on or 20s at the most..
