    Default Which car would you buy?

    I've been driving an Eagle Talon for about 9 years now and I've been thinking about upgrading to a newer car sometime in the near future. I'm bias towards Sport Compacts but the Ford Mustang really appeals to me. I've owned a 1986 Mustang Cobra as my first ever car.

    Anyways, which car would you buy within this list:

    -Mustang Mach 1
    -Mitubishi Eclipse GT 2003
    -Mazda RX8 (If the price is below $40,000)
    -Nissan Murano

    The Murano maybe the odd one on the list but somehow I like it very much.

    RX-8 is the way to go. They look sweet. Mustang is Ford and the Murano is an SUV no one needs one of those and a mitsu eclipse will be really common. RX-8

    How realiable is the mustang though. I heard the 2003 Cobra had to stop production cuz they break. Is there any truth to the rumor? The availability of the Mach 1 is ONE unit per store in Calgary. They sound sooooo sweet.

    Ackkh, don't waste your money!


    -Mazda RX8 (If the price is below $40,000)
    It is, $36,900 for one of the models anyway.

    You could always just hang in there until the EVO arrives.

    DSM power,

    I don't think I can afford the EVO. I heard the car's MSRP is about 48K. Tomorrow I"ll be going to Lethbridge to look at a 1995 Talon to see how good of a condition it is in. It has about 120,000 KM. I still luv DSM's. If I can find a VERY VERY good Talon, I will definitely get it. The only thing that strays me away from 2G DSM's is CRANKWALK. I"m scared of it!!!!!!

    Hey DSM POWER, wanna help me look for a TOP condition Talon or an Eclipse?

    I am very very picky.

    The Mach 1 has more style and character than any of those other cars could ever hope to have. Shakers rule!

    The Mach-1 at the autoshow looked amazing! Very nice and clean looking. Also, that shaker hood will be gettin you lots of jaw-drops. Plus the stang is like twice as fast as anything else on that list. You know you waaaaaant it...

    Edit: The RX-8 has killer looks though!

    the car has:

    a) terrible reliability history (alot of mitsus in general)
    b) almost no aftermarket following
    c) no 4wd, slower than older DSMs...this car is not a worthy successor
    4) its butt ugly...stupid grand am lines...

    well ..last SAT.. I tested a 2003 GT...but it's not as bad as you think.....It's very powerful around 2000 rpm until 5000 rpm...and it's pretty smooth....the only thing I found is not very good at cornering...maybe you can go and try~
    peace~
