Ok some of you guys heard about my hell of a night with my shitty 95 accord... well i wanna get somthing else, maybe new, maybe slightly used... heres the deal: Its gotta be a 4 dr, very reliable, not too bad on gas (i drive LOTS of miles) etc etc... no NEONS, no COBALT/CAVY, no Scion, No KIA... No SUVs. Thinking of either a newer accord, Acura tsx or RSX, mazda 6... Shyt just post up your reccomendeds

TSX!!!! I drove one and it just made me like it even more! Not incredibly fast, but has some zip and is definitely pimp.

And six speed y0! That's my vote.

i would say...and lots of people dont like them, but I do....mazda protege-the mazda speed version. factory boosted, FMIC, upgraded brakes and suspension. -and 4 doors. meets the criteria quite well.

I'm also thinking of buying a car, Just tired of the WRX, you want it?? :-* :-* 4dr 300whp, 22mpg.

I have a few in mind, all of these should be under $30k, used or new
Infinity G35 $25-30k
Nissan Maxima $25-30k
Acura TL $30K+
Acura TSX $22-25k
Dodge Charger$22-32K
Chrysler 300 $20-30k
Cadillac CTS $18-22k

I really like the CTS' looks, and then the TSX and G35, but I will probably test drive all of them before making a decision. If I do I will probably part the hell out of the WRX before seliing it or trading it in.

CTS-V, caddy style, comfy and classy, and still haul nutz.....

I like the looks of the charger, but being a new car, you never now what will happen, and being a domestic the value will probably drop down pretty quick.

My top 3 are the CTS, the TSX and the G35. I want to test drive all 3 before making a decision.

Last friday there was a 4dr auto G35 at the track running 14.2-14.4 all night. Appeared to be 100% stock I could not talk to the guy. But if they are that quick for a 4dr, that's not bad. It will also be fun to try a rear drive, after doing the FWD and AWD.

I want something comfortable and that represents a little more maturity than an econo car, in my business meeting engineers architects and such it helps to show a little maturity and I guess I'm growing up, damn it this day wasn't supposed to come, ever :'( :'( :'(

I like the looks of the new charger but i still feel the older one more :-\


The CTS is a nice car but im really feeling the XLR more. Now those are nice cars. 4.6L 320 hp Northstar V8 and 0-60 in under 5 seconds..pimp. O0


The G35 I would def rock. They come in rwd and awd. I would get the rwd 2dr 300hp. There a black one 2dr, lowered, with gunmetal rims that looks nice as hell. He has an exhaust system too those cars along with the 350z sounds pretty nice. Those cars are pretty decent stock and you can make them pretty fast and you get luxury along with it. :)

Get a CTS-V :D


The transformation begins with the installation of an 6.0-liter V8 good for 400 horsepower and 395 pound-feet of torque. It puts its power to the rear wheels through a standard six-speed manual transmission, a limited-slip rear axle and a short 3.73-to-1 final drive ratio to optimize acceleration.

Yeah that's what I'm talking about, luxury but speed. I really like the G35, I was thinking a 2 door for a while, but a 4dr with a TT setup would be pimp. Luxury + 400+hp for less than 30g's. I can probably get a good 4-5k selling the parts off the WRX and just drop that in the nex car. This will probably happen soon next year. After I get my christmas bonus and ----. I want to go to the dealer with 7-8k cash and do one of those yeah I'm young and I want that car type of deals.

When they tell me I can't afford it or can't even test drive it, open up the suitcase, and ask for another salesman, and be like bitch you ain't getting no commision out of this sale.

It's happen to me before, twice, they don't think a 19 before 22 the last time year old punk actually has a good job. I'll probably walk in wearing a dirty t-shirt, shorts and flip-flops

Re: new vehicle time... ideas/suggestions UPDATED w/06 civic vids
 
apparantly right out of the box too (407mi on the car, driven hard). Lemme find the article.

Edit: http://www.vtec.net/articles/view-ar...icle_id=421994

dont forget that STi's put down about 240whp (but it is awd...)

sweeeeeet. i was just reading up on this in motor trend. sounds like its one hell of a package. my other question.....since it has a factory GPS option, if the fucker is stolen, wouldnt it have some kind of location device or something on it?

dragon 11-20-2005 05:02 PM

Re: new vehicle time... ideas/suggestions UPDATED w/06 civic vids
 
i just watch the vid a stock 06 si makes 204whp when it rated at 197hp. If they really make that much power they are just as fast as an s2k but like 10 grand cheaper
