I think they are hot cars, but when you start getting into the 30K range, I'm thinking EVO. Starting at 29XXX or whatever they are, and all on a proven chassis.
I priced out an MR when I was home for the NAIAS, 35K out the door, but that's the MR.
I thought about it, but I am going to Germany in May for a month, so money will probably be a little tight after that

But those SE-Rs are hot.
