Why am I posting a poll? C&D related
Hey Guys,
Some people like these things. Out on freshalloy.com there was a post about a POLL on http://caranddriver.com/ for which car has the most bang for the buck. The 350Z is in second, and the WRX is in first. I'm not sure I agree on that since the Base/Enthusiast/Performance offer much more for not that much more $$$.. anywho, if yall like polls go vote.. lol.

this is how I look at it. Whats the better deal?
1) A six pack of very good microbrew for $5.00
2) A six pack of keystone light for $3.00 with the same alcohol content.
Yes the neon is fast and cheap, but its KEYSTONE LIGHT!!! ...making the microbrew a "better deal." People are cheap, but people are spoiled too!

yeah but I see where hes coming from, the poll is for "most bang for the buck" granted none of us have driven one, but I just read my fourth SRT-4 article(this one in Automobile) that has the SRT-4 pulling 5.2 0-60 and 14.0 1/4mi. The new Sport Compact Car gave it first place out of 8 sub 20K cars, it out braked and out slalomed all cars except the new Mazda turbo protoge, so it can do more than drag, but jeez, a Neon?? 
they tried to make it look better with a different bumper and big basket-handle wing(ugh) most bang for the buck perhaps, but if all I had was 20K I would look for a used WRX

Gives you a lot more to think about... you might have similar performance figures in a straight line, but end up paying out the rear to get things fixed which has you paying more over a X year period.

The WRX does give most bang for the buck by far, comeon you buy one, you get a downpipe, and a MBC (manual boost controller) and you're good for mid 13s...it's a sweet car for those who know how to drive them...but not many do....but it's the only car where 1HP costs less than $10
