Want some ideas for a fun car I realize these posts come up a lot. I'm not a 16 year old looking for a first car. After numerous discussions with my car guy friends about what car to get next, I've come to a point where I've run out of fun cars I get super excited over to a point where I have to own/drive/try it. Talk about first world problems. Throw some ideas around. Thanks guys. Here are my basic requirements: -rwd or rear based awd -manual -no sunroof, no targa, no convertible -not a boat, ideally between 1000-1500kg -no rust -no solid axle -LSD must, clutch type preferred, ok with torsen, settle with viscous -a/c, heat -electric windows -central lock -abs -seats 4 ok -2 dr, 4 dr, or wagon -na or boosted -250 hp and up -no beaters -can be DIY/tinkered with at home -parts availability high preferred -something I haven't owned before -within $10-20k budget Here is what I've already owned: 1985 BMW E30 325E White 1985 TOYOTA AE86 SR5 COUPE Two Tone Silver/Black 1985 TOYOTA AE86 GTS HATCH Silver 1985 TOYOTA AW11 MR2 White 1986 TOYOTA AE86 GTS HATCH Two Tone Blue 1st 1986 TOYOTA AE86 GTS HATCH Two Tone Blue 2nd 1986 TOYOTA AE86 GTS HATCH Black 1986 TOYOTA AE86 GTS HATCH Black #2 1986 TOYOTA AE86 GTS HATCH Red 1987 TOYOTA AE86 GTS HATCH Red 1987 TOYOTA AE86 SR5 HATCH White 1987 MERCEDES BENZ 190E 2.3 16V Smoke Silver MT 1988 BMW E30 325ES Black 1988 BMW E30 325IS Dolphin Gray 1988 BMW E30 M3 Black 1989 TOYOTA AE95 Corolla SR5 AWD Wagon Red 1990 BMW E30 325IS Sterling Silver 1990 TOYOTA JZA70 Supra Blue 1990 NISSAN BNR32 Skyline GTR Nismo #440 Gunmetal 1991 BMW E30 318IS Red 1991 TOYOTA Cressida Black 1991 LEXUS UFC10 LS400 Gray 1992 SUBARU Legacy Sport Sedan 5 Speed Silver 1992 BMW E36 325IS Diamond Black 1993 BMW E36 325IS Red 1993 TOYOTA VCV10 Camry Sport Green 1993 TOYOTA AE95 Corolla 4WD Wagon Red 1993 TOYOTA Camry Sport Blue 1994 Volvo 940 Turbo Blue 1995 TOYOTA Avalon Red 1995 BMW E34 540i Black 1995 Honda Civic DX SE Coupe Red 1999 AUDI B5 A4 1.8T White 2001 BMW E38 740I Sport Black 2002 LEXUS IS300 Pearl White 2003 TOYOTA Camry Silver 2005 SUBARU Legacy GT Wagon Blue 2006 MAZDA Mazdaspeed 6 Silver 2006 SUBARU Legacy Silver 2007 SUBARU Legacy Spec B Diamond Gray Metallic 2010 MERCEDES BENZ GLK350 4matic Tenorite Grey 2013 BMW 328i XDrive Cars I'm on the fence, sorta gusta: JDM FD RX7 5MT JDM JZA80 Supra 6MT JDM S15 Spec R 6MT JDM AE86 Trueno JDM Altezza RS200 JDM JZX100 Chaser EVO 6 240Z with Frankenstein swap LS, RB, 2J BMW 2002 roundie BMW E9 3.0CS BMW E46 M3 6MT BMW E39 M5 BMW Euro E36 M3 3.2L 6MT |
...and I thought I had ADD when it came to car ownership... Sorry, no suggestions. Everything I can think of either falls outside your price range or requirement list... Edit: Fiero GT? |
my vote goes to the chaser. |
Good luck with maintenance on the FD RX-7. As nice a driver's car as that may be, reliability is not a strong suit for that car, especially when even the newest example of those are already 10+ years old. On the other hand, since you haven't tried a rotrary yet, I would suggest giving a late model RX-8 some thoughts. The car is loads of fun and sufficiently reliable if you stick to the later model years. |
Mord Fustang? :troll: |
I thought I clicked into the Gran Turismo thread :derp: my vote goes to holding out for a few more months for an imported S15 |
automatic v6 mustang |
RB25 or 1.5JZ Kouki S14 Posted via RS Mobile |
Wow, you're looking for a very specific car. 2003-2005 AUDI B6 S4 AVANT Dolphin Grey Meets almost all requirements... except sunroof? |
RWD will take out most of the competition for parts availability.. BRZ. |
e46 m3 although a lot of them are probably over 20k. |
2005 SUBARU IMPREZA WRX STI World Rally Blue |
Autobacs Garaiya I believe they're 2001 and up so have to wait til 2016 or so... http://livedoor.blogimg.jp/option_z3...5/55656e28.jpg |
2004+ Honda S2000 with Spoon hardtop? :badpokerface: |
|
I'd say Chaser or an R34. |

i vote for skyline. R33 GTR or R34 GTT. easy to find a clean one between 10-20K |

Would agree with an X100 Chaser or R34 GT-T. I would say JDM GC8 STi ver.6 or Mitsubishi Legnum/Galant VR4, but I think both fail to meet some of the criteria. Posted via RS Mobile |

Probably don't meet all your criteria, but I've always thought a Lotus Elise would be a fun little car to rip around in. Not fun to get in or out of, but fun once you're in it.. |
