Default your future cars...

Im bored at work today, and am always thiking about new cars. My wifes vehicle, 94 Isuzu Trooper is on its last leg, and its time for a new car. This is something I am always pondering....

what would your next car be...

These are mine. I have to think about the fact my next daily driver will probably have to carry our first kid so...

1. mitsu evo (the day I can afford this, I will have one. what better of a family car)
2. neon SRT-4 (i have drivin one, and I think its one hell of a car for the money, and it could haul a kid)
3. Subaru WRX STi. (I feel the same way about this as the EVO)
4. Crew cab Ford F-250 4WD, power stroke. (This would make for a bad *** truck. my father-in-law has one and I love it)

5. and of coarse another 95 and older honda or integra. I would like to have this for a track car.
6. another track car idea, an AWD talon, or eclipse, or laser....

this may be a re-post, but I havent seen anything lately, and we have alot of new members(or new people who accually post)

srt-4 is one helluva of pig. The mitsu laws of upgrading a turbo for 100 hp still applies to this uber queefer of a motor. But the thing is it's STILL a NEON, but then again i've seen older neon engines put up a good fight with turbo's making some pretty sick numbers.

-I test drove a SRT-4, and was extremely impressed. I took it down a windy road, took it through a dirt road, straight line, pounded the hell out of it, really laid on the brakes into the corners, had the sales lady hanging on, and I fell in love with it.(then I handed the keys back to her said I couldnt afford it, LOL)
-for 22K I would have one in a heartbeat. the interior, standard subwoofer, and rareaco seats,the brake/suspension set-up, what more could you want for 22K factory car.

-there is a guy at the track with one, has a set of cams, up-graded exhaust, and a BOV< all SVO or whatever chrysler calls there factory upgrades, and hes running high 13's and still has a factory warranty, and only spent $24,000-and a brand new car.-(and I think a CF hood) Hes out-running 50K vettes.

I really want a EVO though.

Looking for a shell of a 71 Datsun 510. Found a few but no in the right price and about 10 drive. I have a flat bed to pic it up and the shop space to restore it.

Looking to put a sr20det redtop in it.

Old skool imports are what I really like
Celica-Supras, 280z's 510's

If I had to go domestic(which I would like to do also) It would be a Chevy II

Good look finding one those things are so overpriced it makes me sick. I've found rusted piles of ---- 510's where the owner literally looked like a pile of ---- when they asked for 3k . SR20 is overrated KA is where it's at $500 for a bulletproof block where do i sign up please? It's like the F series of nissan's highly underrated
