Yupp my friends is in the shop for a $4000 repair :/

I'd go with s2k. Beautiful cars, fast, and gotta love that high revving

 
The storm that hit the west a couple weeks ago flooded my street and my 01 RSX Type S got flooded and the insurance company deamed it "totalled" even though it still ran. I guess if water get in the cabin its considered totalled cause of health problems like mildew or something. So they gave me $10,000 now i cant decide what kind of car to get? I can get a decent looking Rx-7 FD and fix it up.. or i can get a Rx-8, another RSX Type S, a Automatic Supra MKIV and ****** swap it for a stick, or an s2000? Im not looking for a sub machine car ahah im more of a "tuner" i guess thats the word... Jsut shoot me ideass!
WTF, cant you keep the car and spend 1000 on all new interior and call it good?

 
Or i could do the Supra MKIV ****** Swap... 2JZ-GTE Inline 6 will shit on almost everything with proper tuning and what not...
You said 10 grand, you are climbing over 10 grand there. Hell, for under 20 grand my GN eats up Vipers, Vettes, and most anything out there... I haven't lost yet.

 
Get the Supra, if you can find a deal. Most of those are going for serious cash now tho. **** you fast and furious.

I left many a GN looking at the tail lights of my 88 Ruststang back in the day.

 
I'D go f-body also but I guess you don't like being fast and relaible while still retaining good gas milage? I hope you like living in the 13s because with your price range and car picks that's all you're gonna be lookin at lol

 
question for you OP... you mentioned you got 10K from the insurance company... does that mean you have up to 10K to spend or do you have more?

what kind of budget do you have to work with because 10K will not get you the majority of the vehicles you mentioned...
