I’d have to say, if you want easy to mod and cheap to run. The GTP is probably the best route for you. Granted it’s not the best handling/sexiest, but it’s a solid car with a simple proven engine. ---

Here’s my advice: buy a reliable car, cheap to insure, easy to maintain, etc. You’ll be able to eat normal food through college. ---

Goes from A to B in comfort. It is not fast, but a great daily driver. Definitely not what you are looking for. ---

I didn’t actually attempt to make my car uglier as you have done with yours. That would pretty much be impossible, because my car is pretty ugly from most angles. It’s like the myspace chick… And I prefer my steering to actually have feeling. Actually that was after a detail. If I do say so, the paint looks just delicious. ---

I’ll tell my roommates Mom to bring her Accord over for a detail after she gets her nails done, since she has the same one, same color, same wheels. Maybe you two can start up a gold accord group. ---

GOODIE GUM DROPS! My friend has a grandma gold A4. Sometimes we let them mate in her garage, but since both of them are impotent nothing comes out. I’d rather have your A4 too, but those wheels. Meh. No. I’m sorry! ---

I dont do crazy shit to scare peopel or piss them off, occasionaly i get a bit squirly when trying to show off to friends, but all of my friends concur that i am a good driver. Again not tryin to be cocky [http://www.nyspeed.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7976](http://www.nyspeed.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7976) aside from that, good luck with either engine. i’d go with the 1.8, do a few fun mods, have b00st stock, and i dunno… turbos are more efficient that SC’s - plus, don’t think you’re ready to SC/TC a 3.2 like walter’s. it sounds like for your budget you’re looking for something fairly quick for pretty cheap, with a couple mods - i’d go 1.8 turbo. did you drive any yet? if you have the cash, check some used dealers and go check themout 🙂 [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/1-8t-vs-3-2-help/8105.md?page=4) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/1-8t-vs-3-2-help/8105.md?page=6)
