Get a 99Cobra, I had one, awesome car they sound crazy whit a SLP exhaust.
Camaro/TransAm very nice and fast!
Vettes, man you gonna be driving a vette not a neon or a RSX.
300ZX expensive for it's age, but very nice looking.
E36 M3, older S4, there is a lot of nice cars, just need to look.

actually yes i have. in a friends civic hatch. i never said "shitty oconomy cars" cant drive. i gave them theyre respect. did i not say that poeple have been able to do some cool things with them? my point was, when honda designes a new civic unibody they DO NOT make it with intentions of scca racing or any kind of racing for that matter. same for the neon, cavalier, focus. when toyota designed the ae86 it was on there minds to make a great handeling car. same for the corvette, miata, s2000 solstace, ect. theres is one common reason a company actually makes the effort to design a rwd, and that performance. i dont think any company sits at the drawing board and says "lets make a great handeling FF car for the sports car market". sounds funny right? there are some FF cars that have performance trim levels, neon/srt4, integra/type r, cobalt/SS and others. but those are merely trim levels that make a grocery getter more appealing to the youth market. nothing past extra power and some braking/susp mods. and maybe a "mad tight" system.

FF cars = FAIL.

RWD cars = badass.

Ok guys.. thanks for all the replies. I considered a lot of the cars you guys mentioned and heres what i think..

Corvette- Its a 2 seater, and i like driving friends around. A small back seat is why i want to get rid of the prelude

Camaros-cobra ect- I dont want a v8 gas guzzler

Integs civics ect- Im done with honda... great cars but i want something else

RSX- I like it but its too common

I really want a 4 door car because Im constanly driving my friends around and I dont like driving alone too much.. I wouldnt be modding the srt-4 I just want a car thats newer and nice and pretty quick..

My mom said shell consider Loaning me money for an evo if I find one for 18k and she likes it..

On monday Im going to test driving a
03 Evo vIII
04 STI
04 SRT 4
2005 RSX type S
Mustang GT (even though I want a 4 banger/4door)

If I find a evo for the price I may just buy that... Im also not to good at driving stick so im going to go out and practice 2morrow before I go out..

If anyone else has any cars they think I should Go test out lmk....

I reallY really really want a 03+ 4 door 5 speed sub 13 low 14 sec car..

Thx

+2 Can't go wrong with an LS1 powered vehicle. Just open up the exhausts, maybe a K&N drop in, and a few other bolts ons a be happy. It will be reliable and it WILL get good gas mileage if you drive if soft. Sure it won't be as nimble and handle like a Honda or 4-banger, but who cares...is that what your going to do with the car? You stated you want a quick, reliable car thats easy on the gas if you stay off the throttle, but has some balls to it while on it. I had a friend who had a Z28 and he would average around 20mpg to school and back if he stayed off the throttle, not bad for a performance V8. Get an LS1 powered vehicle, it will suite you best. Just don't get a Mustang...
