take the civic EX out of there. t hats not even a performance car. the EX is a crap box econo car. the se-r spec V is a Si and SVT fighter. the celica GT is not as good as the GT-S sooo the SE-R spec V can beat that as well. sooo that pretty much leads to the 2.5 RS and the SE-R.

Spec V

175HP w/175TQ; 6 spd manual; LSD for about $17-18K...that's a nice package.

Impreza 2.5 RS

I dont know if they still made a 2dr Impreza 2.5RS in 2001...but those have nice modifiability...some cool turbo kits out there for them.

My choice...depends on if you are going to modifiy the car at all...if we are looking NA wise...go w/the Sentra SE-R Spec V....but if you have the money and want to go turbo...go w/the Impreza 2.5 RS...it has been around longer and has more aftermarket support.

KEEP IT SLIDEWAYS!!!

the 2001 2.5 RS looks like the last generation WRX's. sooo they come in either coupe or sedan. they look mean as hell. but too bad in stock form it cna't back up that mean look with its performance. however it does have AWD. soo that makes up for it.
