Acura RSX Type-S, Celica GT-S, Hyundai Tiburon (the new one), or the VW GTi (which is a hatch). If you like autos, try the Honda Accord EX V6 Coupe (lowered and with bigger meats of course),

You might be able to find a 95 E36 M3 for around 25k...or if you're lucky, bargain down the price of a 96 from a private seller...

That would make a nice coupe, don't you think?

Other choices include:
1.) RSX Type-S
2.) WRX?? If not a 2.5 RS...
3.) Used Prelude
4.) How bout the Accord Coupe?

That's all i can think of that are under 25k and is a coupe..

Good luck!

Cheers,

Bryan

I drive an RSX Type S

I thought it was ugly when I first saw it too but when you get used to the looks it actually grows on you...

now I think it's beautiful

RSX has the best bang for the buck in my opinion for under 25k

I just checked...you can get a used 95 M3 for under 20k!

You can almost certainly get a used 96-97 for around 25k w/ decent mileage....

That would be my best bet if I wanted a nice coupe.

Ciao,

Bryan

OMG!! Prices have fallen off a cliff when compared to prices a year or two ago!

Wow...maybe I should get one as a *beater*....
