New Car Ideas...

So I just started a great career, and now I am looking for a new car to buy within the next couple months hopefully... I want something different and not your everyday sort of car you see on the street. I have a budget of around $30k...

I was looking at a Mustang, Camaro (pretty much off my list now because of the visibility issues), or anything of that sort.. any ideas? I don't know what to think of that would be different but fun to drive.

The new 5.0 Mustang is supposed to be pretty goodbit out of your price range though probably. Also give a BMW 335 or 328 a test drive they're really nice cars compared to others in that price range.

You have a budget of 30K, but what about the budget you have set aside for gas, maintenance, repairs and insurance?

s2000? you don' see that many around, its pretty affordable, pretty good on gas (aprox 330-350 a tank of 40L gas), convertible, handles extremely well. only downside would be the steering feedback....=( other than that i think its perfect! ^^

forgot to mention, its a honda so its RELIABLE!!
