tinuron's are nice, i like them

as for reliablilty... if you were to get an srt-4 like the one you said... how reliable it is relates to how you treat it.

alot of the inexpensive, fast cars - dsm's srt4's cobalts etc, get the bad rep from young kids who can afford the small payments. young kids + fast car = somthing breaking - law, car, other drivers, tree's

if you enjoy it when you can, but baby when you should, it will last!

tiburons are nice, i presume less insurance, not a fast or handling as an srt, but will last you alot longer, easier, with less attention required than a turbo car.

you can always look to get a better condition 6gc down the road, possibly when you have more money saved up to invest more in upgrades to it.

-i disregarded the srt-4 because of insurance ... came out to be a bit over 300$ a month , just because its "turbo" .... no logic in that since a V6 putting the same power would cost less to insure ...
-the tiburon is nice as well , good enough for me , but it gets bad MPG so i have tot hink about it a bit

--> my car wasnt in bad condition, in fact its pretty clean but i just had really bad luck owning it , first it got dented badly in a parking lot , then in my own garage ( by my sister ) , then i had the dents pulled and the car painted ( the paint wasnt in tip top shape ) , now the body is dent/ding free , the cloulor looks great and shiny away from sunlight , but once it gets direct contact with sun it looks a bit more brown than black , almost like faded black ....... and then the engine started idling roughly , a tune up and seafoam helped reduce that by about 70% but i wasnt satisfied so i decided to do the timing belt since i had no idea when was it last changed , and thats when the engine started idling like crap ( i have a thread about it ) ... right now i am just collectively disapointed with my bad luck with the car and just want to get something else

-another 6gc is a possibility , but i doubt i will be getting one ..... i will always be in love with the car's styling and the car's nice interior
