E36 M3... Say no more.

 

you can buy my xr4ti turbo and drop 5 grand in it and call it a day. LOL. or get a Ws6

 

ok, he suggested performance cars from a 350z to a wrx that all go for right around 20k

i think its safe to say a fbody/vette/cobra fit what needs he did specify.

its not like a suggested a chevy tahoe

 

i would get a transam. fuckn love those things.....

 

lol @ spyder eclipse.
A c5 z06 is probably the best bang for the buck that's only 7-8 years old and around 20k. Most likely it will have high miles though. Id get a fair mileaged c5 frc instead.

 

i got a 97 z28 that has a ton of motor work done...buy it for 8000 and drop another 4 on a procharger and be faster than most ...has 76000 miles

 

Good idea.

 

If you're young, get a car with a backseat. It'll come in handy. Set aside like a grand for tint tickets. *wink*

 

Need more details! New or used? Coupe? Convertable? Wagon? How many seats? Gas mileage? awd, rwd, fwd?

I'm surprised no one said Miata yet... they're cheaper to insure (and maintain) than a V8, better mileage too. The only thing they're not great for is highway speeds and bumps for extended periods. tight suspension + short wheelbase = unhappy butt.

I saw a 2000-something Mazdaspeed for sale listed @ 10k recently (DIBS).
You might be happy with that. OR you could get it and drop your other 10K into it and DEFINITELY be happy with it
whatever you do... don't get the Eclipse. Unless you're an asshole, then I'd say you deserve that slush box.
