oh and the brand new c70 (hardtop convertible) is sexy as all hell! The current c70 has a good aftermarket support for it

Anyhow....you're numbers dont really make sense. You have an 18k limit, yet you want a GTO to eventually s/c (even though by the time it's paid off you'll have too many miles or other problems to want to mod it). But that's just you saying what you WANT, not really what you can get.

Anyway, I'd go VW. 1.8t or a rabbit. Or if you really dont care too much about performance and still like some downlow getup a TDI.
lol he mentioned lightnings and gto's and you come up with a VW...you can find gto's pretty easily in ur price range. they are super nice cars with a lot of aftermarket so i'd go with that. You could get a really low milage ls1 camaro or t/a as well. if you want a truck deffinately go with the lightning

If you get a lightning make sure you get the post revision, the pre revision has a real shitty head design and it will spit the spark plugs out of the head if you turn the boost up.
