| Next spring (if not sooner) my saturn WILL be going up forsale and i will be in the market for a new(used) car. Ive looked at hundreds of ads, and car reviews and i just cant find anything that really catches my eye.
I wouldnt mind fwd for all year round driving, but i would definetly like rwd or awd(slim pickens). I also dont want anything impossible to find parts for, or very costly to fix.
Point me in the right direction? The most id like to spend is 10 or 12g's | |

| Yeah, I was thinking Civic too, or how about a Teg? You can also get a base model RSX for your budget if you look hard enough. Saying that you wouldn't mind FWD, but also would like RWD and AWD, also doesn't cut down the selection of cars either Intended use for the car? Want something sporty? Fuel efficient? Point us in the right direction | |

| buy a 84-91 BMW 3 series. Stick to the 6 cyl if you want torque. They are classy looking cars that say, "fuck it, I'm old school". And plus, I have 3 complete cars taken apart and stored in a shed, so if you want parts I have them. This is all jsut a clever plan for me to get rid of parts | |

| It would be a daily, all year round driver (atleast for now).
Sporty and fuel efficient would be nice. I dont want anything older than 98.
Rsx would be nice, i love the interior of those cars, very very nice. Definetly an option. | |

| nothing older than 98? where are all you kids getting this money? Or maybe I just need to stop spending money on my old(er) car and step it up to something newer? well 10-12Gs buys alot. scion XB with gold sportmaxx. Quite possibly the best looking car/thing I can think of. They look so neat, some people love them, some people hate them. Needless to say it won't be sporty, but it will be good on gas. One will hopefully be my next purchase( I just want to see how they'll hold up to a few years of abuse first)

| But, if i was to get a car like that, would I not be better off geting something like lets say a 180sx where parts might be easier to come by?
But i couldnt exactly "winter" drive anythign like that, nor would i want to.
Back to the drawing board | |
