Hm. Tough choice. :rolleyes:

Drift_Monkey 01-07-2009 11:05 AM

2008 Acura TL-S if you can still find one brand new

x_macbeth 01-07-2009 01:29 PM

evo x

Avery 01-07-2009 07:02 PM

if our dollar wasn't so raped , id say import a 04 CTS-V from the states

Adrenaline Rush 01-07-2009 10:05 PM

The IS250 should be eliminated from the list - the bang for the buck quotient is very low (though it will be very reliable and has a great interior)

Your choices should be the Legacy GT or the G8

another question I wish to ask is why do you want AWD/4WD? if it's for snow conditions, then you have the wrong mentality. AWD is not gonna help you that much more if snow hits Vancouver like the way it recently has. RWD or FWD with snow tires will perform just as well, if not better than AWD on all-seasons.

trdees 01-08-2009 06:45 AM

iam surprised no one said MAZDA MIATA ;)

Actually, I was scared of Snow thats why i thought AWD will help me get out of snow (without buying snow tires, i don't like the hassle of changing to winter tire every year). I have no plan to drive in hard snowy day. Just want AWD to prevent my occasional stuck from driveways or side streets.

So i am getting some Legacy votes from people,

Legacy GT VS IS250 AWD VS CTS-AWD , TL-SH awd (maybe, but its such a big car).

If you don't mind slightly used, and don't mind hunting for one in the states, the WRX or STi Limited. Fully loaded and has leather.

Indeed. Only one car makes no motherfucking sense.

Im too lazy to check the price on the A4's but they r super nice. not cheap to own compared to the cadi or lexus (not far off tho) and the interior makes the IS look like a corolla (nothing special and really tight inside). Ull hate the bill, but ull feel good every time you go for a drive. If you wanna be a racer then get something else. an A4 would be a nice, long-term, classy ride that ur mom will like as much as ur bro's. A4+s line pkg + 6sp = jizzability

wasabisashimi 01-08-2009 02:16 PM

Will not use car for racing, will keep it completely stock. Therefore, I want the exterior of car to have a little bit of sporty look.

Are we talking about new A4 with the LED headlight similar looking to R8 look?
