Last night, out driving the GoCart the CEL came back on again, the a/c has a bad leak, headlights are cracking (age), etc etc etc.....I'm starting to get old.

So I started thinking about getting a new car. L is too much, don't want that big of a payment. so I was thinking of a WRX, which is along my lines....or a Nissan Maxima SE.

ford doesn't hae what I want right now which sucks royal donkey poopoo. There is no way I'd buy a FSVT either. Cobra is too much too............

Grrrrrr Decisions Decisions......

Funny thing you mentioned this because just this weekend i swung by a Scooby dealer to check out one too, just for kicks.
I recently had some minor hail damage on all my vehicles and my old scort got totalled(=check:)), and they gave me some decent cash to repair the dings on the the other vehicles including my E0. Since everything is paid off, i was toying around with the scooby idea.
Anybody know if the price has some give on current rex's? I know the 2003's are coming soon so maybe theyre prepared to deal. The one i looked at was stickered at 25300K or so.
I cant do the FSVT but i would consider the 5 door FSVT but thats not coming out till next year. And yeah my CEL is staring at me everyday too LOL!!
good luck and let us know what's out there.
Best, DD

RT, you can't hold out for the Mazda 6?

What about the CL Type S 6spd? I've been looking at them for a while...if they had some special incentive I'd probably hop on it. I can get a loaded one for about $28k. No special financing or rebates though...

well, just glanced at some used 01/02Ls...might swing that.....

Uh, what's a Scooby dealer? And what's the L (the car that is too much)?

scoobey: subaru
L: Lightning (SVT F150)

Yeah those look sweet!!

wait for the mazda 6

DOOO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TL-TYPE S With a 6 speed!!!!!

What about the Mazda "Speed" Protege? They will be here this fall!

I'm being bitten by the new car bug too......but I'm looking for something impractical. I'm looking at 68-82 Vettes either T-tops or convertible and a MTX is a must. This is my favorite body style and a "needs some TLC" car is right around 10k...very affordable.

When my promotion comes through in another two months (I hope) I may be the proud owner of 25 yr old classic!!!

Good luck, dude. I'm a hard core slushbox hater myself, but so many of the Vettes out there have automatics it's disgusting. These guys who collect them just want to wipe them with a diaper, I guess, to hell with driving it...

P.S.--When the C6 comes out C5s should be pretty cheap, and I really like those...

I'm with you. WAIT!
