I am nearing my 5k mark for a down payment on a new car i wanna get. Problem is, i don't know what excatly to get. I am maybe thinking the:

Saturn Sky

Scion tC

(some great features come standard with this car!)

the new Civic SI

2005/2006 Mustang GT

some options of the older cars i wanna get are a

3000GT namely 93 or lower

3rd gen Camaro

Oldsmobile Toronado

drools.....

442

or a 300ZX

please keep mpg and color out of this please //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I'd throw in the Excursion as well, but... ...thats just crazy...

I'd probably go with the Scion, just because it is pretty much toyota. Most toyotas get good gas mileage, and are very very reliable...

Just my opinion...

dont get the GT if you go for a mustang. just get the V6. you can run mid 14's for cheap. and that would take almost everything else u listed. plus its more economical in every aspect.

The Scion is sleak and comes with plenty of options for less than most cars.

But the mustang is just fricking hot man.

Look at http://www.transampontiac.com

It has 2:73 gears so it is good on gas if your lite on the foot but when you dump the carb into the 6.6 its worth it

Although the mustang is one sexy hoe, I would go with the Scion

i believe the correct name is actually toronado.....could be wrong though. seems like i thought the same thing for a while.

I like the Scion, Mustang or 300zx. I'd probably go with the Scion myself.. but depends what you're looking for in a car, what you plan on doing with it and what the car will be used for... The Mustang's always nice for some things but I'd personally take the Scion for my uses.

if u plan on a good size system, plan on glassing the mustangs trunk. u wont get a big box in it and have a spare tire accesabl. i would know. other than that, i love my car. althought the interior is a bit too much plastic. still a great car though.

Toronado, those cars are beeutiful.

 

[AznRevlAzn 10+ year member]

yes the car is called a TORONADO not TORNADO, lol. I mainly want it because it's a beast of a looking car. the only problem is that it's a front whell but i aint complaining. The cars i am going to get i will rarely drive . It's just something i'd like to have and take it out once and a while you know. But yeah, trying to find a first gen Toronado is a freakishly hard thing to accomplish. There are low listings on ebay and there never on auto trader or yahooautos. I wanted the 442 because my father had one, he added in a turbo and a new manifold and let's just say he raised hell with than than his old harley.
