Default What car are you going to get next?

So what car are you looking to get next? I am planning on getting a new car in 2 years. So that would be 2003. By then there should be a lot of good cars out like New Z, RSX Type-R, New NSX, etc. If money was no object, I think I would get the New NSX. (V8 VTEC ) Or maybe a R35 Skyline...

After (or during) this, maybe (if i have a job) a 350Z? - nothing too exotic yet.

The 2003 Acura NSX. Followed by an Ultima kit car for the track. The S2000 will be my daily driver and there will be much rejoicing.

Right now Toyota and Honda is in grudge match. Toyota will enter F1 next year which will be first company from Japan to enter next to Honda. And they both race in Indy, All Japan GT, etc. I am sure they will try to out due each other on their next flagship sports cars. And don't forget Nissan, the new CEO is really aggressive. You can see his action by looking at the new Altima, Sentra SE-R, and Maxima. Which have most HP in it's own classes. So I am sure he wants the next Skyline GT-R to be the fastest out of three. It will be very interesting to see what happens...

Replacing my Accord soon, I'm looking at sport sedans, probably a 528/540 or another A4 1.8T Quattro (for those of you who know the story, I'm counting on that lightning not striking twice...).

I think I'll pick up the new SL AMG when it's released. I was at the dealership today to put my name on the list.

That's right. I remember you had a bad experience with Audi's.
