So, it's come time to part with my first love and move on to something newer and more practical. This car has served me very well, but it's just sitting in my garage and I really dont like having 2, yes 2, cars that I rarely drive because they are too nice. I'm not planning on parting with the M3 anytime soon, so the Saleen is getting the axe.

I will also be selling my newly aquired 325i only because what ever I buy next will be my daily driver and I dont need two of those. So, finally I'll be down to 3 cars and they all serve a different purpose...kinda.

As of now, my main focus is on Evo's. I drove a Evo9 and fell in love and just recently my shop just bought a EVO8 to play with and resell. I drove it all around today to see if its still something I wana pursue and I believe it is. It's new, its under warranty, it's fast enough stock to keep me happy, it's a 4door so its family/friend friendly, decent gas mileage since I live 30mins from anywhere, and it's a great overall performing car. The only downside is that it's yellow. I'm interested in finding a Black or White Evo, but yellow I cant stomach. If I'm paying $20k+ for a car, it's going to be something I love to look at as well.

But, I will also give it a try, so if anyone has any pics of some badass yellow Evo's please post them up.

If anyone feels like giving me some other choices or input I'd appreciate it. Budget is around $15k-25k and my goal is a car I can get in everyday, whatever the weather, turn the key, it starts, and all I do is drive. The 325i is a load of fun to drive, but the tiny annoying things get to me after a while and I think it's time to treat myself to a nice daily driver.

Keep in mind that whatever I buy it will mostly be bought at wholesale through my work, so some values people think of might be within my budget.

Things on my list to try out are:

c5 z06
sti
evo
audi s4
e36 m3
s2000
540i 6spd
...I had a whole list in my head when I started this thread, now I'm drawing a blank, but you get the idea.

I know that I could get a fucking badass 03 Cobra, but I really dont give a shit. I'm tired of Mustangs and I dont really care about going Mach2 with my hair on fire everyday. Instead, I want something that does a little bit of everything well, while looking grown up, not boy racerish.

Input please.

g35 coupe?

look for a black or white evo...don't settle for yellow.

turbo98

c5 vette...It wil be faster than all of those listed, it gets great gas mileage for what it is, it's sleek, sexy, and you can probably find one that's still under warranty...

Get the EVO so you can drive it in not so favorable winter conditions. Also white EVOs are delicious.

This is our car...


I drove it a ton today. I love how it drives. It pushes like a motherfucker though at the limit.

^^^ in the back of my head I keep picturing black CCW Classics on that car and start liking it. I gotta stop.

ew yellow FTL

FlimFlam

I concur.

Only yellow car I'd rock is probably a Type R. Or a z06, but don't tell Brian.

I just posted it for sale on our own site....hopefully someone will buy it before I can talk myself into it.
