Good Car for around 10-20k?

I have 10k i can spend, but i am considering a loan for a new car. Only prob with that is there isnt much i like thats new other then the IS300. I was just wondering what a good RWD/AWD (really tired of Front lol) car that performs well, looks nice, and is reliable. So far just considering BMW 325is, Nissan 240sx, and A IS300 if i can find one for 20.

Thanks for the help 8-)

I can't really say older BMWs and the 240SX are known for reliability... anyway, if you like RWD Lexus, you can find first gen GS300s or older SC300s/400s for less than $17k for sure.

Used Subaru 2.5RSs can be found for around $12k, but maintenance and repair can be costly since it is not a common car.

First gen Miatas (pop-lights) and some earlier second gen Miatas (current style) definitely can be found for less than $10k. They are supposedly pretty reliable and very sporty... but they are small. :icon16:

Then you have your Mustangs, Camaros, Firebirds, etc. I think American cars' reliability is whatever you make of it. They do need more maintenance than other cars, but as long as they are kept properly, they should be ok.

If you are going to go up to 20k...get an M3...anywhere from 95 on...

The 240SX's are very reliable w/a near bullet proof truck motor to boot!

:naughty:

300z na/turbo, supra na or turbo/sc300 , definitely an M3 would be a good choice, mitsubishi 3000gt vr-4, WRX impreza.
