lol wtf I didn’t mean for it to come off like they’re a late 70s british car or something, they’re incredibly reliable, that’s why there’re so many 200k+ mile e36’s running better than 80k civics, im saying if you want one in TIP TOP shape at all times, THEY ARE $$$ to maintain. I was simply stating, and exaggerating, because he said he wanted a newer car with a warranty, and shit happens with E36’s that can be $$$, you know this, I know this, everyone with an E36 knows this. (think diff bolt, oil pump nut, clutch fan, etc.)
and nothing is ‘broken’ on my hooptie that was a cause of me not maintaining it, but I can see why you’d say that as I’m a bit over-paranoid about every little creak so I’m always asking you about crap and complaining…i guess lol

Just specify what you’re looking to get out of the car to help us give you a more focused advice.
With so many car choices out there, just throwing out a price range figure doesn’t help much :tong

Check out the new Nissan Altima’s, a friend of mine picked up a new one with the V6 and it’s pretty quick.

Haha, all the honda peeps say honda, bimmer owners say get a bimmer and so on and so forth. With $25,000 you can a nice 2000+ Corvette C5 with relatively low miles on it.

-06? Mini Cooper S - Car hauls ass and the handleing is unreal.
-MK5 VW Jetta 2.0t - Amazing car, oh so smooth
-06-08? Civic Si - Car pulls nice for a stock honda
-05 audi S4 - Need i say more? baller status
or when in doubt… buy a 95 jetta (obd1) vr6, fully built turbocharged 600whp ftw… would take the whole 23k probally ha

I don’t think I’ve ever done this before… but I’m going to have to agree with GranMassaX. In particular when your young, you usually can never quite afford the car you really want and desperately try to get another car as close as possible, and your never quite happy with it, etc… I could easily afford a GT3RS or something similar, but the S2k is cheap and puts a smile on my face, what more can a guy ask for.

Used S2000.
For 23,000 you can buy yourself a used S2000, supercharge it, and get a decent set of suspension. :banana

Why buy new? New cars take the biggest hit in depreciation. Get a certified car that’s a year or two old, most of the time you end up with a BETTER, LONGER warranty than on a new car.

i dont know much they are now, but my dad had a 06 crossfire SRT6 and loved it. Covertible,6spd and hauled ass. Only reason he traded it in was he wanted a backseat so now hes got a 300c srt8 w. some work done…
