I am going to second the mazda speed 6 or maybe a WRX? errr maybe a Legacy GT which is more comfortable than a WRX and has turbo too ^^;;

But I would also think used G or 350z or scion TC with supercharger? I don't know it depends on what your definition of comfort is. 2G is probably the most comfy car I have ever been in. That is including escalades, bmws, benzs, ect ect. But that is me, apparently you dont like the feel of the 2g. So I think you need to test drive some before you take the plunge
 
I get 21-23 in my Evo even with the AC on, you're not gonna do much better if any depending on your driving habits with a GTO. Oh and if you want just dead sexy get a g35 or Z, but if you want all around ####ing awesome pick up a used IX
 
a GTO, an aquaintance who has one claimed he emptied the tank on a 3/4 hr (three quater) Autobahn run.. so.. i bet theyre not that good on gas..


+1 for evo.. it has a usuable trunk and room for 4 people. what else do you want?
 
Mazdaspeed 3 maybe.

263 horses 280 ft/lbs torque starting at 22,835.

You can get a brand spanking new one grand touring edition with all the options for 27 and change.

If not I would vote EVO.
 
You're gonna get shit for mileage from the GTO unless you drive it like a 90yr old women on Sunday. Their estimated mileage is 16/21, so your Eclipse is already getting better mileage than a GTO would. Supra's somewhere around those numbers too, give or take. Those numbers are going to plummet when you take the car out and have fun with it, like you and we know you'll do. ;)

Personally, if I had 25k, I'd probably buy an Evo IX. That car is going to be a collectors item in the not to distant future. The last mitsu with the legendary 4G63.

Supra's are my favorite car of all time though, so if you find one of those for 25k, snag that car up.
 
New GTO's aren't even that fast even with 400hp. I'd get Mazdaspeed 3 with a few mods is making over 300 hp and its faster than the WRX and its even Fwd. The traction control system for it is supposed to be amazing. You would have Brand new car that has room for people and is faster than some subies. I can't imagine selling a 97 and 99 GSX though. I think i could sell one, but never both of them.
 
i used to want a supra man. but paying what the car was brand new for a decent one is retarded. i want to kick my self but before F&F i allmost bought a 97 from the dealership with 32k for 28 . it was white black leather, targa with auto..


i'm replaceing my beater with a honda fit and selling the talon and getting a is350 or 250
 
EVO or STI

Both have nice power for decent money and 4 doors to haul people or things.
 
Wow you guys have horrible taste. If you want to be like every other dudeman on the road, buy a sti, g35, 350z or evo. No offense to anyone.

E46 M3. Or even E36. Used of course. Damn people.
 
You should get a supra and turn it into a 600hp monster my friends got one pushing 655hp and 620 torque it's a monster i love riding around killing crobras,
 
Evo

the ford fusions look to be not to bad

mazda

Is300 non turbo version of the supra with 4 doors. In D sport last month they had one with over 1000 hp deep in the nines and it had a full stereo. I would get an evo or is300.
 
Well, out of all the cars people have posted none of them give GOOD gas mileage besides maybe the Altima and the mazda 6.

You very well know, if you get ANY turbo car you won't be getting good mileage regardless of what it says on the paper. Its not like you won't be boosting it.

...err... you forgot about the Civic SI a couple of us mentioned... more fuel efficient then the two cars you've got mentioned :) also the Saturn Sky is nice though not practical. :thumb:

where are you located in raleigh?
 
Buy a 1g and with the 24k extra, you can build a car to compete with some big named people out there. I'm in the same situation, I'm trading in my 18k mile srt4 and my gsx for another new car, Either a new 06' evo with 0 miles or an sti, I just need awd.
 
03/04 cobra. though its hard to get any good mileage when your obsessed with the blower whine and scaring people in your passenger seat through 2nd gear.

you can also find a C5 vette (non zo6) for that range that isnt abused to death if you look.

other nice cars would be something like a RSX-S, new Civic Si, things of that nature. you can even find used evo or sti in that area. mazda 3 or 6's are nice as well.
 
Id get an evo 8!! But I guess they arent a big deal because you guys can buy them. We in Canada we cant. If I could I would have one anyways :)

Hello mr. kettle, YOU ARE BLACK! catch my drift?

Many other cars have been mentioned that are less main stream esp on dsmtuners i.e. a Mazda 3, GTO and Altima. I would say a M3 is far from unique nor is it faster than an Evo or STi. But he also wants something fuel efficient and they all have the same fuel efficiency.
