Ok well basically i just want to know what some advise. Im looking to buy an import (mostly because fuel economy) and i have like a $8000 maybe like a grand higher for a expense bracket. Leaning toward mitsu but give me some ideas.

Thanx.

Fastest for the money would probably be a Stang GT or a Z28.

For 8gs you could pick up a nice Z28 too.

well i was gonna get a trans am but the gas mileage really sux balls cause two of friends drive f-body v8s. so im thinking like a gs-t with some work thats as fast a z. The $8000 -$9000 grand i have is just for the car not the parts ill be installing afterward. (ex. turbo intake exhaust... ect.)

buy a civic hatch back for about 3 grand. then with the money left over put a GSR engine in it. seriously later down you can turbo it and take on the z28s and GTs all you want
