I would say either:
S2000: if you dont have any kids, great for nice sunny day cruise and really good handling

or

WRX: AWD so weather wont be so much of a factor. Already boosted. Room for more than two as oppose to other choice. pretty good handling as well.

yea, i looked at the s2k's today... and they are a little small for me....

i like the fact that i'll have 4 doors, boost, and awd.....


plus the car is 100% stock, and i can do everything myself, plus, it comes w/ a waranty, and all the add ons (6 disk changer, digital climate control, the sport seats, etc...)

I have a honda accord, and I LOVE IT! I had a chevy cavalier before and I know its the new Cobalt that you are looking at but.....the chevy was nothing like my honda. Very reliable. Just my opinion tho. Hope it helps.

wow.... umm

an accord is ALOT different than an s2k.

a cobalt ss is alot different than a cavalier.

and an srt-4 is alot different than a neon (but not by much )
