Though that R32 is a nice looking car, the mods seem well-done...The miles are high, and I'd avoid it for the very same reason as avoiding a used (out of warranty) Audi. When they do need fixing, the cost of parts is insane. Pretty much applies to any Euro brand. |

Forgot about the previous gen CTSV. Good call. TBSS's are cheap too if you can use an SUV.

Just thought of something.. The latest gen WRX. The 2010+ model years. Not the STI either. Little known fact but the WRX is quicker than the STI 0-60. Reason being is the WRX gets to 60 at the top of second where the STI requires you to shift into 3rd to hit 60. You can find em right at $20k too if you look hard.

Imo, Subaru builds sleeper cars. Many don't expect them to be as much fun as they are.

In 04/05 there was a turbo mazdaspeed miata. If you go miata I would look into them. You can find them for $10k I believe. Alot easier to get more power out of than a NA. My neighbor has a modded one and it rips. I know you are trying to avoid a payment but at $10k you can pay the difference off in a year easy which would be worth it to me.
