    Default Best Pick....Z, EVO VIII, RX8, STi?

    i have a friend hes looking at a new car and he has a good amount to spend. hes looking at a new car and he narrowed it down to the choices. anyone have any suggestions on which one to get. money isn't much of a issue considering the fact hes manager at a isp company right now.

    350Z?
    EVO VIII?

    or wait for the STi
    or the RX8?

    I don't know, those lancer evo's look pretty pimp imo. I think they are the nicest, and the perform well too

    the STi....because the performance you're getting out of it. HP, TQ, suspension, brakes....and the price of the car....best bang for your buck IMO...like 45-50k you wouldnt have to touch the engine at all.....but the downside to it if you like music and all that stuff....you wont get one...the STi comes without a stereo (because they want to save weight), but im sure theres a package where it includes it, or else buy an aftermarket one.

    In Canada, they do come with a stereo from the factory. Not sure about the US though.

    Isn't the Mazdaspeed version of the RX-8 around the same base base price as the STi?

    You can guess what I picked.

    STI is a very nice package from the factory. I'd prolly go for that if I were to have the funds, but really have to see what the rx8 is like though. Mmmm... rotary

    Those EVO engines are beastly turbo machines, But the dash board needs some work..looks kinda like a focus dash.

    It's a hard choice.
