Well I have been tossing around the idea of a new car for a few months and Id like to get your guys .02 on this. Ill get rid of my DSM but Ill probably just pull the plate and keep it in my garage. I have been dead set on getting an Evolution for a long time and decide to wait for the 9 to come out, but after seeing the price jump to $32,308 plus tax and intrest I have decide to look at some other things. After a few weeks of thinking about some other possible ideas I think I’m going to try and find a 93-95 RX7. Yeah I know about the unreliable issues but thats not going to stop me. I think there on of the most beautiful cars on the road. paying somewhere around 18grand for a 12 year old cars going to suck thou. I want to stay somewhere under 20 grand so I can still buy a new Honda 450R quad. so maybe you guys could throw in some suggestions.

The only ford worth buying is a Cobra. The 2 valve per cyl. GT motor is worthless in my eyes. I hate the new mustang and the supercharged Cobra’s a nice choice but I dont want to Give up the handling of the Import car and I could never deal with there interior. Also ANYTHING GM is out of the picture.

If you are familiar with DSM’s and reliability is not a big concern why not get a used '03 Evo? If you can find one that still have the powertrain warranty good on it reliability shoould be of even less concern. A used 03 could be had for low 20’s.
