Hi,
I am going to Arizona State University in August and I need a more fuel efficiant, reliable, and powerful car (right now I drive an 84' Cherokee). I have about $10,000 to spend and I don't know what to buy. I have been looking at the following: 98'+ Acura Integra GS-R, 98'+ Subaru 2.5 RS, 97'+ Audi A4 2.8, and 99'+ Volkswagen Jetta. I like all of these cars however I have heard of horrid maintainence problems with the Audi and VW. Any information or testimonials about these cars would be very helpful.

P.S. Which one of these cars would be the best to modify for racing purposes but would still be a good everyday car?

I don't think the Audi or VW is a maintenance nightmare.
What do you mean by 'racing'. If you mean on the streets, go with the Integra.

Well I have made some decisions since my last post. I am leaning twords a VW or an Audi but I don't know which (A4 or Jetta) year and model to buy. When I say racing I don't mean quarter mile drags but rather driving through cities and taking sharp corners at high speeds.
