> [@98 Red Ex](#): > > I know the STI is a 4 door, Im just saying I would prefer a 2. I like the idea of a g35, but its alot $$, haha… Ill ahve about $7k down and $350-400 a month. Its alittle over that new, but if I can find a used one, its definitely possible. Honestly, I like the civi, though, cheaper, lots of options, and i guess it drives well… Oh no you don’t. I could never own a 2 door after owning a 4 door. I would feel the need to compensate in other ways. ---

> [@98 Red Ex](#): > > Or should I go the Nissan route? t mother fucking up to that idea… or invest your $7k, and the 375 a month you say you can afford, just keep putting that away in the same account with the 7K, in 2 years you’ll have 9000 from the 375 a month, plus the 7k initial down payment, for a nice big 16,000 down payment that can be used in the new and coming to the US skyline… 2008 Skyline FTW ---

> [@98 Red Ex](#): > > Yep, $$ means alot to me, lol. I dont want to have to dump some of my stocks already… Don’t even consider selling stocks to buy a nicer car. That would be just plain dumb. A slightly used G35 would probably depreciate slower than the others, but you could probably get an STI at a lower buy-in price and still have slow depreciation if you buy it slightly used. Something to consider if you’re only going to have it for a year or two, as it sounds. Otherwise, how about… Used but near-mint Celica GTS? Probably cheaper than everything you listed, and still a ton of fun. 2-door, sporty, well built, slow depreciation… ---

Probably cheaper than everything you listed, and still a ton of fun. 2-door, sporty, well built, slow depreciation… Very good call! thats another consideration, Celica GTS. Im not overly fond of it, but its possible. Thanks everyone for the suggestions and ffedback so far, Like I said, this isa good 8 months off still, but I want to start thinking seriously and looking at my options ahead of time. ---

the celica is a very well built car and fun to drive. its just not good for taller people like me. i drove jeremy\_gt’s and it was pretty nice i must say. the seats stock resemble a very nice set of racing seats and it handles GREAT. between the gt and the gts i would say gt if you plan to mod, but gts if not. and you can get a 2000-2003 celica used dirt cheap if you look in the right places. great car for the money (used) ---

If you’re planning on keeping this car for a long time (ie. after you’re done with the army, and thus done with Georgia), for this area, STi hands down. The G35 is definatelty a hott car, but I’ve gotta think it hurts all the guys who have to garage their $35K+ cars for half the year around here. Get a car you can drive. ---
