if you go domestic way, i say buy a typhoon. import way-- i can’t seriously see you being yuppy enough to own two bmw’s at one time. the porsche would be bad ass–but in a way more bad ass than the 1 series. so who gets stuck as the beater car? 40k will get you into a used turbo. i know you are anti jap. but for a “beater”, a jap car will take more abuse than any european car. by abuse, i mean neglect, not limited to – hitting any obstacle in the way while e-brake drifting in the snow, cold starts and bouncing rev limiter until engine warms up type shit 🙂 ---

Galant VR4… at least that’s what I bought. Haha. Of course my IS250 is still my DD since I don’t deal w/ snow etc. I wouldn’t honestly suggest a GVR4 for a dedicated DD. I like the Mazda Speed6 suggestion, but they don’t make them new anymore (and even if they did I’m not sure I could pay as much as they were for one) and they didn’t sell that well so I suspect they’d be hard to find used. Actually, now that I think about it… Saab 92-x Aero. Just dressed up WRX, should be pretty cheap on the used market these days (since ppl were buying them $10k under MSRP w/ a huge rebate and employee pricing a few years back) too. -TJ ---

evo?? :dunno: as far as SUV’s chad’s mdx was in that price range… SEMI ballerish (but more soccer mom-ish). probably could tow if necessary. honda pilot maybe?? what about those porsche SUV’s you were looking at? could probably get one pre-owned in that price range. ---
