An open question... Get a Porsche, a vette! maybe a GMC Debali, or just get a civic

some ideas...
new Civic Si
RSX-S
STi
350z
Evo 8/9
Scion TC
SRT4
there are plenty more, but these are some pretty nice cars (except the SRT IMO)

Get a miata/MRS, if space isnt a big deal. Under 3000lbs, RWD, 50/50 weight, those cars go in the direction you want before you even turn the wheel.

Get a CPO BMW 330ci. About 27k for a 2003-2004 model with warranty and 2yrs service.
You wont want another car for a long time and looks freaking classic.

the question is..how old are you....

i am 18 and dont plan on getting a classy car. i will leave that till i graduate with my ME degree. no rolls royce etc. i want a car that is about the same as my celica, and ive been looking for another. it took me about as much time to find my caras i have had it. and i've had it sicne sept 05' . i put a lot of thought into my car and get it perfect before i buy it. and after i buy it i keep it as clean and fresh as possible. why should age matter. and if it is at all possible i will personaly do as much labor as needed to fix my car excluding the transmision fix. and i appreciate the car ideas. i've seen some nice STI's and evo's but no celica that can compare to my old one...

why does age matter? you know owning/renting a car is a 2 part deal right? yeah you might get that evo or sti but dammit the insurance is gonna eat you like a fat chick..everyone is throwing out cars that you cant afford..well unless your parents help you out....so for being 18 your choices are celica, some civic, rsx, maybe a srt-4 and a lancer...

btw i was 19 and in the military and it took forever just to get my celica...but i got that without the help of my parents..would have been alot smoother if they did but im glad they didnt...but damn did i pay out my arse for the first 4 months until i got that thing re-fianced...

Front dmg is not worth fixing epecailly ur dmg seems to mess up half of the car... if u tried to fix ur car, youll prob just pay the same amount or more than what ur car is worth....
just go get a 00 celica =) lol good luck on ur car though..

ok well i the insurance company is going to pay me 19500 ( i think my dad scared the crap out of the guy when we had our chat). i paid 19000 for it so i think im comming off very well considering i had a lot of fun with it for 10,000 miles and got 500 more from it. kinda sad to see it go but if i get another celica for 10,000 i will have 9,000 to upgrade it, or i could get a better car
You know the answer will be.....CELICA.
Cego, you don't even own a Celica, shouldn't you be recommending the rav4? Oh, and congrats on the ban. :thumbup:
