I've got 6K, what should i buy?

Hey guys,

I recently decided to sell my 2003 Hyundai Tiburon GT. So now i have about $6,000 to spend on a new car. I want a sporty car. Preferably a 2 door, V6 or V8 or turbo 4, RWD. I was thinking about the Lexus SC400 but it's only offered in automatic What are your suggestions?

Thanks,


-Brian

I forgot about the MR2's. I could probably get one cheap then mod the hell out of it.

I have another bank account for that already and it doesn't need more.

Buy gold or silver, If you already have something else to drive. Or if you MUST buy a car, look for a well taken care of S2000, or an 85 pickup or 4Runner, those have held their value steadily over the years.

i do like the idea ofan mr2, i like the 80 box style, theyre small, low, and sporty, if you lower it, and put on racing suspension it will handle great!! then you can get a header (or headers, im no sure what engine it has lol) maybe an air raid intake and tb spacer, then maybe even a super or turbo charger!!!

ive always liked the mr2's, imo, they are baby ferrari's (rear engine if im not mistaken, right?)

you can probably get a good deal on one, just make sure its a stick!!
