[QUOTE="yacob.naif, post: 2156664, member: 565696"] get a toy, and spend the rest of the money on a daily driver. just get something lightweight, that doesn't require tons of hp/$$$ to get fast, and then get yourself a solid daily driver that's comfy and quiet. There's no way to make a car a) fast b) handle well c) quiet all at the same time. but i guess that depends on your definition of fast. Back when i was living with my dad, and could afford toys, i got myself an abandoned autox project car for $5k, which was an 87 gti, that was stripped out, had a european 2.9l VR6, big cams, racing intake manifold, quaiffe LSD, chip, underdrive pulleys, coilovers, nice racing wheels, toyo proxies, 5-point harnesses, 14-point cage, corrado dash swap, tons of body work, custom audi silver paint job, 16v final drive, etc. etc. etc. all because the guy got frustrated when he bent a few valves. Would i want to drive something like that everyday? Hells no. The thing idled like complete A$$, and rode like a **** truck. But did it run low 13's, spin the tires through 3rd, get 29+mpg, whip around corners like a go-kart? Hell yes. **** thing even had a sony xplod head unit in it [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] And i still had the money left over to buy the audi to drive everyday. Toy+Daily = bliss. [/QUOTE]
