Why not just get a Vette + 2 years, then?

Other than it having to be new and <$30K, is there any other pieces of criteria? You seem to favour the Camaro/Firebird look and you you pretty ste on it, so I'd say stick with the plan to get a WS6.

How much do 35th Anniveraries run for?

That R33 GTS on motorRex is weak. Automatic non-turbo.

Besides MotoRex is the gay they overcharge for doing nothing. And its 1995

WS6 is baddass. I'd hit it.

Oh and a WS6 can be "tuned" easier than a Supra. Supras a nicer car IMHO but the WS6 requires less maitence, is newer, and is prob. cheaper to run.

Somebody's obviously caught up in the hype...

Supra's are nice cars, but FAR overrated by too many people that know nothing about them or other cars...

Right now I want the Ws6 the most...But only because I haven't found anything else in that price range, with that power, and that I like the looks of that much.
To Saturn: I'm a sports car guy. Doesn't have to be domestic, don't really care, just has to be a two door sports car that can RUN, or be made to run. So yea, that's really my only criteria...New, sports carish, preferrably targa/ttop(NO CONVERTs), potential to be pretty quick, not a PITA to maintain...That's really it, I think.

And yea Supra's are nice and all, but not as great/perfect as everyone wants to believe they are. Just another car, nothing magical there.

You could get a stripped 350z or G35 sport coupe for under $30k. Both start around $27k or $28k and both are pretty sporty.

I'm going with Jay here. A Vette with a couple years on it is an excellent choice. And this might not matter to you, but its a real step up in exclusivity from either a Camaro or a Firebird.

If it were me, I would do a Vette, or keep the '95 Z28 and continue to mod the shit out of it!

Yeah, they're definately sporty, and definately sexy as hell.

I have a poster with the 2k4 Grand Prix GTP and the new GTO on my wall and it's FUN to drool at it for hours on end.

Those are probably my best picks.

I like your taste in posters

I have one of the HSV GTS Coupe (Just a GTO wth an extremely ugly bodykit and a 300Kw Callaway-tuned LS1)

I was thinking about the Vette idea, not sure though. Really really wanted a NEW car. And plus we already have a Vette in the family, my dad has a C5 I'm still not sure though, not quite to the point where I HAVE to make a decision yet. And the '95 is pretty much as far as it's going to get modwise, without me dropping $5k+ into it. Something I'm DEFINITELY not doing. Anything more than where it is will be on the verge of making it a track-only car

I would also recommend a 2000 or so Vette Coupe, but since you want something new, and you already have a C5 in the family, I say either go for a Vette or WS6 anyways, or check out a 350Z or G35 Coupe.
