Need Another Car, But Confuzed
Well I am looking for another car again and do not know what to get. I want something that will handle some power and be easy to upgrade. Not really looking for a domestic car again, mainly trying to jump back on the import horse this time. Would like something turbo charged. Not trying to make big hp/trq but would like something that will be easy to get into the 12's at least to have fun with. Not really trying to go back to a honda unless its a S2000 just because I am so use to driving cars like M3 and 350Z. I would go with something like a Subaru WRX just because they can be made good looking with not much money involved.
Here's a list of top ten I would pick:
1. S2000
2. 350Z
3. G35 Coupe or Sedan
4. WRX
5. EVO
6. S4
7. Mazdaspeed 3
8. IS300
9. TC
10. RX-8
Many more but these are the main ones. Just trying to get some feed back from owners of these cars and mods done and quarter mile times. Not trying to have something that will be down all the time and having lots of issues from the factory, thats why I did not list the new GTI because I have read up on too many weak points from the factory on the new 2.0T motor. THanks

Since you can't spell confused, it's no wonder you can't make a decision

The diversity in that list is pretty substantial. What exactly do you want out of the car because from your post it sounded like "i want atleast a 12 second car that looks good and doesn't cost alot to mod and will be hassle free" and unfortunatley there's not alot on that list that can take care of all of those categories. I'd get rid of the RX-8, TC, Mazda and WRX(replace w/ ST-i if you can afford an EVO) if $$ really isn't an issue because these tend to be on the lower end of the list. The S2000 and the EVO seem to be the most opposite ends of the spectrum. So do you want a 2 door roadster, a 2 door "sports" car, a 2 door luxury sports car, a 4 door luxury sports car or a 4 door "rally inspired sports car"?

Non of these cars have anything really in common. You have to figure out what you want in a car before you start making lists of what would be cool to own.

Really does not matter if it is a 4 or 2 door car really. To me $7000 is not really to much to spend to get something in the 12's or 11's. Bascially I want something that can be made to look good but go fast at the same time without issues. Scion TC's can be made to go fastest for under $7000. There bottom ends can handle alot of power for how much the car cost. Plus with the right kit they look pretty sweet looking. I would have said STI but i am not really a fan of them because they to me are mainly for someone who wants a track type of car. I am more of a drag racer then anything esle. RX-8 was probably a bad pic because of crappy motor but they can be made to look hot.
