i think those scion tc's look pretty sick. brand new one less than 20 grand, and extra db's for bein a hatchback

you could get a 2003ish G35 with most of the options for right around 20. That sir is a badass car. But if I had 20 grand to spend on a car I might just have to go with a late 70's old monte carlo (training day style, hydrolics and everything) or a late 80 grand national or t type.

all those are very nice features and what I like.... hopefully something like this and under my price range... because Maxima's are probably a top car that I was considering before starting this thread.... Now I'm getting swayed to many different options.

Try http://www.maxima.org Im sure youll find a few there that are worth the price. Just try to stay away from the factory nav its really quite bad.

If ya find one on there, feel free to PM me and ask about the seller, theres a good chance I know them and/or worked on their car already.

if you only do a few mods, its fine. Its once you start doing what I did, that you get unexpected downtime.

I would go with Nissan. I know I plan on buyin an Altima but probably gonna stick with v4 engine for better gas mileage since I commute alot. But you could get a brand new altima probably 3.5SL even paid in full or you can try a used maxima with about 15-25k miles on it. Both are very nice cars. Altima is slightly larger. Maxima has more heat to it and will have some miles on it. Coin toss.

I went in two days ago trying to push for a newer model Maxima... not looking good on that. So yeah, I may look into an Altima and compare it to an older Maxima and see what I like more. I do want a big car tho and both of them seem big enough for me.

I'd go with a used Mercedes, something 4 door. I'd check eBay for an idea on styles.

Funny thing is, it was my DD. Always has and will be...somehow though, while I was gone this year at college, the alarm shorted out, and now the car won't turn over. I tried taking out the alarm, but to no avail. Pisses me off. Now I have to look at all the wiring, and see wtf went wrong.

The tC is a excellent choice for bang-for-buck coupe fellas. But even though it has a hatch, it is a really small hatch coming from someone who owns one, that is unless you wanna fold the seats down.

Oh, well have fun on the enjoyable endeavor. Shorts, then searching for it in a mess of wiring is FTL!
