Well since my cycle is on ebay and there is already a bit on it, i am starting to look at cars once again. The car i buy now will be my DD for probably the next 4 years or so. I want something that gets 25mpg and is loaded. (Leather, maybe heated seats, sunroof) I’d rather a 4 door…as of now I’m looking into the regal gs, gtp, saab 9-3, or maybe volvo/bmw. I have around 9-10K to spend, but the less I spend on this car the more I can put into the vette. I can get a gtp or gs for say 7K loaded low milage, how are the saab 2.0T & 2.3T ? My friend has a s80 t6 i am also thinking about.

Saab 2.3T’s get the big 9-5’s moving pretty well. Plenty of TQ for DD-ing. ---

25mpg 4 door loaded with heated leather? I’ll sell you my car for $6800. Granted it just tipped over 100k so probably not what you want… I vote E36 328iS. ---

GTP’s are nice and fairly reliable from what I’ve heard. Thats a lot of power in the snow though as a daily driver and I hear they don’t like to go in the snow. GS’s are ok, but kinda old man-ish. No Saab. ---
