need to replace my car

had a 98 cavalier z24, sporty and fun...all in all not too bad as much as people dont think highly about cavy's



but alas blown engine

so im lookin at replacin her, like id love to go for a 240 sx or something but they are priced too high around here and bank wont help a guy out on a car that old


basically if i go through the bank she needs to be like a 2000ish

looking for 8sec 0-60 or quicker, stick and of course FUN to drive

8 grandish for dollars


what should i look into, no civic's but i DO want it to be an import

I have to replace my car as well. I have been looking around and can't make a decision. I think it is difficult. You could always register to win the Nitro on Autoblog. LOL. Wouldn't that be so cool to win one of those!

Integra?

priced a bit higher then id like but i do really like


they going for about 12 grand

Wow thats high.

What about an Impreza? 99-01 2.5 RS coupe will go for around 9 grand give or take and they look good, modded or not. 165 horse/166 torque i think. They can be made to go faster and handle better though not exactly the greatest stock.
