Re: help?

First off welcome to AF,
now to answer your question will be a little more difficult. What are your goals, do you want a fast car, a sedan with enough space for your friends and moderate power, a gas-saver...will this be a daily driver, etc...
There is a car comparison part of this forum, also a car buying Q&A section. (I'm not sure if you are aware you posted in the part specifically for Mitsubishi 3000gt). From the cars you listed, it seems like a bit of variety. The stealth is essentially the same car as the 3000gt, and can come equipped with 161ish hp, 222ish hp, and a 320 twin turboed engine. The twin turbo stealth would be a drastically different car than a ford probe or pontiac sunfire. Also are you looking for a new or used car. My girlfriend had an 97 sunfire, it definantly didn't have 200hp, and wasn't all that fast, but it was only like 5 grand, which would leave you with quite a bit of cash for the ever-rising gas prices. Not knowing your exact interests or needs, I would suggest going to a few dealerships and testdriving multiple cars, to find what really suits your needs best. If you want more information, or advice on a specific car or cars, or have more specifics already in mind, don't hesitate to ask.

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.

May I reccomend a used 3000GT/stealth , or would that be plugging it? You can get yourself a 320 hp beast of a machine with all sorts of doo-dads like active areo, 4 wheele steering, 4wd, TCS, and many other goodies for around $14,000. or you could save alot of coin by opting for the 222 hp SL (like me) and not loose much except a bit of that power and the 4wd.
