I just sold my 97 240sx picking up an 1989-1994 240sx soon as a project car. Now I'm looking for a new daily drving car. There's so many good cars out there....I just don't know what to pick. Here's are the choices...2004 Evo blue (I'll be eating cup a noodle for couple of months), 2004 WRX STI in white (all subaru dealer I contacted is sold out except one but it's like 300+miles away), 2004 or 2003 WRX sedan turbo in yellow or blue, Dodge neon turbo str?, nissan 350z enthusiast edition, 2003 honda s2000 in red. These are all the car I'm considering to get. Watcha all think should I get? Do you recommend any other new car to get thats under $32,000? It has to be a new car 2003 and 2004.

haha oh man, your choices are endless.

If it were me I'd get a 2.5RS and dish loads of money into the 240.

But you want a new car, if I were to ever have a dd and a project car, the dd would have to be something that is real good in snow. And we all know AWD is the best in snow, and we all know Subaru has the best AWD system. I would get the regular WRX because it gives you more money for the project car, but if you have the money take the STi. Forget what every magazine say :rolleyes: and pick the STi over the EVO, white would be real nice, you never see that color, then at least you can keep the same color theme (white with gold rims :D).

For other choices I would go with a G35 Coupe, nearly the same performance as the 350, but IMO a lot better looking, and a lot more luxury. Or get an AWD Bimmer, you can never go wrong with that.

Go test an Evo and STi and then choose one. DONT get an srt4, not if you can afford the other cars you listed. 350z and s2k are also nice but again, make sure to test drive everything before even thinking about making a decision.

would s2k be a good daily driver? anyway, out of the choices u gave, i would pick srt4, so u wouldnt have to eat cup-of-noodles everyday. but if u have to spend the 30k, id go for is300. i think it looks better than the other sedans u gave. it might not outperform them, but u said youre looking for a daily driver. well theres my 2 cents, now give me my change haha :D

Exactly, test drives will make it easy.

For me, at $30k it would come between the Evo and STi.

I'm not sure if the G35 (Sedan or Coupe) is within your budget.

Unless you're just obsessed with owning every ricers wet dream....
go sit in and test drive the cars- then make a decision.
