they're practically giving away jag xtypes. six or seven K off sticker is easy. 4 doors, awd, stick shift and a nice interior for $25K. scheduled maintenance no charge.

we got one a few weeks ago, and have found it to be a decent vehicle especially for the price.

is this gonna be ur daily driver? i wouldnt reccomend the EVO as a daily driver. if you do however, also be prepared to spend more money fixing it to make it the way it should be.

how bout a TSX - very nice car. like a 4 door rsx.

WRX - like already stated, great car. not so "luxurious"

MINI coooper S - great car, great handling, great luxury - bad space, bad shifter.

GOLF gti- very nice daily driver car = although new generation is coming out very soon. not too sporty but very fast.

Mazda Speed protege - yes its the old body style and is outdated now, but i think they still have new ones and would probably be really cheap. its a great handler.

CIVIC SI - suprisingly good car. i reallly liked this car when i had one. i would recommmend getting an SI especially 04 with new suspension and exterior enhancements and spending the left over money in a RSX-S engine + upgrades. i think it looks better and has a better interior than the rsx.

If you need the room, you could pick up a 3 year old DeVille.

I'd have to choose a WRX.. perhaps an EVO if you can swing it.


But.. I want a 2 seater.

Right now i am going towards the EVO TSX and G35. I got a ride in the EVO which was awesome. Never got in a G35 or a TSX. This is going to be a daily driver so I need a car thats reliable and can get good gas mileage. A 03 Accord v6 sounds good but never ridden in that neither.

A 6MT Accord or TSX would be nice daily drivers, but go Evo or G35 if you can afford it

u got a ride in an evo probably flying around at high speeds. go for a ride in it again and drive it normal, like u were stuck in traffic, with the a/c on and not in the mood for speeding. see how awesome it is then.....
