Right car for me?

I'm sorry, I just can't think of a Saturn Ion clone with 180rwhp as a sports car...
Does this mean the Celica GTS was a "sports car"?

^^ According to Dave's IP comparison, yes.
You don't need good handling to wreck one either.

Don't be that Z owner, bro. Yeah, it's slow, burns oil, but it can haul *** around a mountain road. It's a fun car, too... I test drove one, but my head kept hitting the headliner, even with the seat at its lowest setting (I'm only 5'11, but I like to drive bolt upright).

I just love cars. Still love boosted LS/VTEC swaps, still love E30s (don't even have to be M designation), whatever.

troll left.
This thread rocks.
to the OP, if you can buy the car with your own money, pay for gas and insurance again 100% of it being YOUR MONEY with zero help from the parents, then get it. I have zero doubt in my mind that you'll drive it easy and wont screw around too much.
However, if your dad is paying for the down payment and you're getting into this car with next to no money in it. Do yourself a favor and buy a civic.
