Which car?

Hello. I have hit a fork in the road. I am 17 yrs. old and I have a couple questions. I have about 8-10 grand saved up and am wondering which car to buy. I am stuck between 6 cars. 3 domestic and 3 import. Which is better, import or domestic?

All of the following, just assume newer models. (i.e. not a '67 GTO, a 2005)

1) A Nissan Skyline
2) Ford Mustang GT
3) Chevy Camaro
4) Pontiac GTO
5) Mitsubishi EVO VIII
6) Subaru WRX

Now I am sure that 10 grand won't buy either of these vehicals, but lets say $ is not an issue. Based on hp, acc, mpg, torque, style, and overall performance, which one is the best choice.

I appreciate any helpful, professional, and logic input. I hope for non-biased answers and plz don't pick a car based just on its looks or popularity.

Thank you very much.

First, how exactly do you think you'll have access to a skyline? Please don't tell me you call the Infiniti G35 a Skyline...

Second, don't ever look at cars as just imports or domestics. Just because a car is made in a certain country doesn't mean that it is anything like another car from that country. An example of this is Mitsubishi reliability, just because they are Japanese doesn't mean that they are as reliable as a Honda or Toyota.

Third, what kind of Camaro are you talking about? and by WRX did you mean the STi?

Finally, what do you want in a car? a quick, cool daily driver? a drag racer? a track fiend? A GTO might be the quickest drag racer in the group, but it would get worked on a track by any one of the imports.

You need to be alot more specific

your 17, im assuming it will be your first car. dont get any of those, get a POS first that will get you into college. sure it wont be pretty and it wont be "cool" but you wont kill yourself and if you do wreck it, you wont be out of 10g's.

if you buy any of those cars, you will with a 99.9% sureity wreck it. so dont waste your time or ours with such a retarted question, damn kids.

LOL man thats the best comparison i have ever seen.

To the person who created this i would love to know were you expect to get any form of the skyline for 10k ie r33, r34, r35, or even the g35.

Like harry said get a used beater, or even a used decent car so if you ever wreck, or manage to destroy any mechanical parts you dont do this
