Acceleration Question

I'm looking for a good car between $15-20k, and was wondering - which one gets the fastest acceleration and most speed/power for the money?

The Evo's are coming though...just you wait...

For now...you have the WRX...0-60 in 5.8 seconds...not bad...certainly not 5.3 seconds like the SS Camaro...but think of the money you will save on insurance(4 drs and AWD...that's gotta be safer)...w/that money you can mod your car and beat an SS...yipee!!!

And I know the WRX is not in the range...but a used one w/less than 10K would go for around that range...

yah, 0-60 isnt 5.3 on the WRX, but it wont handle like a greased pig when it comes into corners at a high rate of speed. The Camaro is good if you want to go fast striaght, but the WRX will give you the best of both worlds, acceleration and handling.
