New car suggestions - Sportbike Addicts

I am looking to buy a new car within the next 3 months or so. Not really sure what I want. Actually I have a few ideas but not sure if I want to spend that much.

Anyway I am stuck with deciding between the 23-30k range and the 30-35k.

G35 coupe is lookin awfully nice

dont do it.. although it is a nice car..
the back seat is virtually non existant..
it eats gas like a mofo!
you can get a much better car for that money..

do you want to lease or finance?

Most likely finance but open to leasing if necessary

My credit is phenominal but a CLK seems like a stretch although I would love to have one

soda7o · 02-16-2007, 11:14 AM

also look into a european delivery...
if you have vocation and can swing down to gernamny a Benz or a bmw comes out so much chepaer as a lease..

This is for you and anybody else looking to buy a new car at any time moving forward!

Want a suggestion, this is it!!!

Make sure the car is Not California Emmisions! Found out my 03 Accord had Cali Emmisions and the 02 sensor, muffler and cat are all TWICE THE PRICE. You can not exchange federal parts into this system, its will burn the others out instantly. I just had the 02 sensor go last week, and after a few days research, the $75.00 Fed sensor was actually a $309 Cali sensor, and the freakin Honda dealer wanted $379!! By the time it was all done, (1 1/2 lab, + tax) including dios, a $175 job turning into $500.
It will be listed on the door jam or under the hood! Don't make the same mistake I did, I didnt even know to look, buy a vehicle that complies with federal emmisions standards.

merker.. how the fack did you get a cali car in the north east.. very very shady...

Manufacturers can not produce these parts for the population of just one state...not cost effective, so they distribute them nation wide to all dealers. There just randomly peppered in to the mix.

I'll sell you my TL for 28k. It's an 05 White with Quartz interior 6 Speed, Navigation,270hp Fullly Loaded. Just changed the full front brake system 2 weeks ago. No dings on the car. The combo with white quartz, 6mt and navi alone is almost impossible to find. I got lucky. Private value of this car is $29,500, oh and Just changed the transmission fluid. Oil changes are made on a regular basis...car is in great condition.
Milleage = 28,500

CAR? keep the old one and yet one of these.... you know it will be a lot more fun

Into Subarus at all? I'm a Subaru fanatic, I think they make incredible cars. The new Legacy GTs are ridiculous. They start upwards of 30ish I believe for the GT tim. And they are fast. Total sleepers. Very comfortable, really high interior quality, and with a very well tuned turbo/intercooled motor. Do yourself a favor and test drive one, got nothing to lose.

I don't know how pricey the new GTIs are, but supposedly they handle really well also. The 2.0T motor is supposed to be pretty nice, and we all know how nice those crazy Krauts engineer vehicles. I'm just a nut for standard AWD so I love Subaru...I still swear my beat up, battered, and bruised 1999 Legacy base model will outhandle anything.

Or get a regular WRX...and another bike...

I think Subaru is coming out with all new designs this year, I'd wait to see what they release. But I agree, the current body styling leaves a lot to be desired.
