    Default Decisions, decisions...

    Well I got a buyer for my BMW 5 series, selling for 27 grand. Now I have no idea what car I should buy and hopefully tune. Any suggestions? I'm thinking of buying a 14 grand car and blowing the 13 rest on mods.

    235HP EASY!!!!!!!

    --- or you could get yourself a VR6 (either the 12V or 24V)!! Once you get "bored" of the torque curve... go out and buy a super-charger... then you will be running with Kenny!!

    Peace

    I would go for a Type-R Integra over a SH Prelude. The ATTS system is overrated and I just think you can buy a better car for $27K. I'm speaking from my own experience, I guess I didn't enjoy my car as much as I wanted to

    If you can find a good one...an MR2 turbo. My buddy had one and it was awesome. Those things handle unbelievabley and have some serious potential.

    Your Prelude was a sweet car!:cool: , but I guess since you previuosly had a BMW, you couldnt REALLY appreciate it. Glad too see you have what your really wanted again!, such a smooth ride!
