My Saab is 04. So it’is already GM unfortunately. NoSkillz, I work for Audi and I can say that anything lower than an A8 is pretty much garbage excluding some of the S-series. The 1.8T A4 is garbage just like its clone the jetta. ---

The new Audis are very pretty, but I’ll leave it at that. Personally, I would never own an FI vehicle, even factory FI. If I had around 20K to drop on a car, I’d get a TSX 6spd, white on black. Why? It won’t blow up on the highway when I downshift to pass someone due to an improper tune. It handles pretty kick ass, looks fantastic, is plenty roomy, economical, reliable. I can keep going all day. ---

actually…i was going to suggest the same Acura TSX looks decent, handles pretty well, just a really good daily driver that is capable of some spirited driving there is tons of selection for 20g’s though… I dont know about you guys…but i have a strange fixation with some american cars… with 20g’s you have access to (well…around 20g’s anyway) chrysler 300 c (such a boss car) Charger R/T Ford Mustang The saab you chose I thought was pretty cool. I always hear that many dentist’s drive Saab’s…so…if you get one, tell us what the hell they’re raving about you can even think about getting a second hand c5 corvette…i’d rock that ---

hahah I would live the Vette but not a good year round work car, also work will not pay for all my gas if it is a 6 banger, But turbo 4 is all good. I also Looked at the TSX but all the ones with Low KM seem to be still expensive and there are almost NO manual ones around. To be honest for some reason I see me getting the Speed 3 even though I REALLY like to other to cars. I can get a speed 3 for like 19000 that has like 10K on it maybe that is pretty awsome ---

I was gonna say consider a 6-speed S4 until you mentioned mileage and work not covering a 6cyl (much less biturbo) haha. WRX, Mazdaspeed3/6 (driven the 3, it’s truly great), or perhaps a 330xi or similar. Kind of your call, because there are so many factors! ---
