| Sporty 4 doors?
A crazy friend of mine knocked up his lady friend and has to get rid of his awesome RWD 2 door sports coupe(s) and can't find anything sporty with 4 doors for under $5k
except the B15 Sentra SE-R, which is awesome
anything I've missed? spending limit is around $5k, not needed until later this year, but has to be 4 door and unfortunatley not RWD 
any suggestions?
also, must be 5/6 speed manual, unless it's an SUV, which for whatever reason they're also considering

well he's got an S13 and a gen coupe like mine, probably only gonna get rid of one though. he's upside down on the Genesis and the 240 isn't worth selling, so it's tricky. probably just looking for a 3rd car with 4 doors realistically, but the S13 would be $1k

wrx too $$$, and no VWs or anything european, don't want the baby to catch fire from being in a vehicle.
older Impreza sounds good, how are the 4 door integras? never owned a honda, but seen a lot of love given to the 2 doors.

enough room in the back to knock her up a second time... with the baby watching
only complaints were from my friends trying to get in the back who would hit their heads against the c-pillar

Around 5k could get you a 5th gen Accord. Plenty of space + pretty reliable.

I think it relatively fits your needs. ( or in this case, your friend's needs)

+1 for mazda 3, lol @ accord and EL when OP asks for a sporty 4 door...
I'd still go with a MK4 jetta or B5 passat, regardless of OP thinking they will catch fire because it's european... they are very nice to drive

2002 Infiniti G20t!
Can't go wrong with a SR20DE + Manual + QX4 low-fatigue seats

And the G20t is roomier than an EL, Impreza and Integra sedan. 
OR possibly a 1999 Legacy GT sedan... (This used to be my favorite car in highschool)

Maximas were once marketed as "4 door sports cars".
Dunno if that really holds true, but I like them more than some camrys and accords Posted via RS Mobile | |

I am looking for pretty much the exact same car... E36 BMW's are on my radar. Edit: nvm no RWD.
Is the B15 SER actaully any good? I remember reviews in the past were mediocre.
I was really liking the Infiniti G20, but I read the cupholders were terrible.

Aside from the Impreza/Legacy idea, he could always go with an older model Honda Accord and drop an H22 once the baby is here and he's settled. That would be a fun combo, with Honda's legendary reliability.
Even better than the Impreza/Legacy/Accord idea though, is a late 90's Forester. They're lego, can fit WRX/STi drivelines, are AWD with good ground clearance, and have a shit-ton of room for his, hers, and baby's gear. Trust me, a wagon is worth it's weight in gold to a family.
You don't think I bought a minivan because I wanted to, did you?
