i want a tsi sooo.... bad. hehe. i'm thinking about ditching the idea of putting a turbo on my impreza and saving up for a tsi. if i had 20g's i would go for a RWD or AWD car. fwd is ok but just isn't the same.

Mustang GT - Awesome performance, good price. Newer model. Engines are pretty solid, and a few hundred on suspension should make it handle pretty well too.
