      We see all of the aforementioned too, just e46's outweigh all the others, I'm sure you already know, they come in for stupid shit that BMW should have fixed over the lifespan of that body.

        You're thinking about the new hyundai genesis coupes, which I kind of like. I might have to go test one out.

          Aren't they pretty good if you buy an 03.5+ model?

            Audis are nice too. Definitely a handsome looking car. I know you can get a A4 2.0t 4 door all leather 5 speed for around 20k.

              According to some magazine, any M car is more reliable than even latest Toyota/Honda/Huyndai.

              But, on a more serious note don't forgot to call your insurance company an get a quote on an evo/sti/e46m3/vette before buying one :)

              Few years back i test drove vw r32, 04 sti and mitsu and ended up getting r32. It was a perfect combination of DD and still very capable in autox/hpde events and it's exhaust was pure sexiness! This isn't a typical vw, it's limited edition and comes loaded etc... 6spd,240hp,13"brakes, heated seats etc. All i did to it was good fluid+pads and had loads of fun w/o a single problem. Insurance was also the cheapest vs evo/sti. I didn't get the sti/evo because of the extra attention they were getting back in 03/04.

              If you pick the evo or sti, make sure you get one that was maintained well and not the early year models...

                My friend's Dad works in auto repair. For 45 years now almost. Anyways he drives all the cars that come through, and he said the Genesis is bliss. Everything about is perfect he said

                              you shut ur whore mouth, vettes are the pinnacle of american engineering.

                              I'd go with the vette. I've always wanted one, that's my final opinion.
