Does every one hate the RX7 and Supra?
Nothings screams over-rated and over-priced louder than those two cars.

Everyone has brought up some good possibilities! I would say start picking some out a local dealers and go for some test drives!

Theres a 350z for sale in coon rapids, that has a single turbo set-up, I believe he's asking 20k. I know the guy personally, and it has a lot of really good work done to it. Its never gave him any problems, and puts down about 400rwhp. Its a complete steal at that price. Im not sure how much of a dd it would be, but it would be a hell of a lot of fun to drive.

Good suggestions so far. Thanks! No rotaries though, thanks. I couldn't deal with the piss poor gas mileage, horrible oil consumption, sub par performance, and shitty apex seals. One thing I would like to do with whatever car I get is to try my hand at autox, so it has to be able to corner at least somewhat well, so that kinda puts out the GTO (plus, they look kinda ghey to me) and other sedans. I dunno if I could see myself driving a Porsche, insurance would likely be very high, and if it ever broke, I'm sure parts would cost a fortune.

So far, my list of cars to look at goes like this. In no particular order:
Genesis coupe
S2k
350z
Sky Redline
Crossfire
328i/330i

Skip the crossfire, my uncle has one and it is nothing impressive at all. I would toss the BMW Z3 on there though if you like the looks.

For $20k, I'd probably do the Vette. Or maybe a bargain basement NSX.

Let's not forget that I would be driving this car in the winter, and I don't think the torque of a vette or the low ground clearance of an NSX would be very good in the snow. Plus, the interior of a c5 vette is absolute shit.
