I just bought a Tiburon a couple of months back.

After having the an S I didn't think I'd ever be very excited about another car but as an everyday beater this car kicks ass!

Major fun factor and 20K on the road for the GTV6, can't recommend it highly enough.

I personally would opt for the SRT-4 if it were my only car and the Scion TC if it was in addition to my S2000. I haven't driven the TC but have read the reviews which are positive. I have driven the SRT-4 and can say they are a lot of fun to drive.

I am reading.. I am not going to buy another car personally, I already have a beater, my S and my classic car, i was just curious as to what people would buy if they only had 20k to spend on a new car. I know many people would just buy a slightly used car and get a better vehicle, but just curious, that's all

slightly used - sure why not ? many MORE options for you then

but if new, I'd have to say Civic Si
