Default What car should I get

I'm looking for suggestions on what car to get next.

So, if you guys had around $26,000 to spend on a used car, what would you get? So far I'm thinking about an 02 m3 with ~45,000 miles or an 06 sti with ~25,000 miles. I'm leaning twards the STI right now because it's newer and I can get one with less miles. Can an 06+ STI owner tell me how the stock stereo sounds? Ive only heard older wrx stereos and know they suck, I'm hoping the new STI is a little better.

Let me know if I am overlooking any good cars in this price range. Jap and Ger cars only.

Right, because then you're going to have $26k into a Honda you'd be lucky to see $8k out of; smart choice.

I'm just saying why spend all that money on a Honda to put it on the same "supposed" performance level with a STOCK car.
Buy the stock M3, have the amenities, the resale, etc. basically everything you don't get with a honda.

I would say 03-04 cobra. Because if you have 23-25k to spend on a sportier performance car, why the fuck not the best cobra ever made.
