k i know ive made a thread on a car under 10grand
but i totally forgot about my budget
as before in my thread i was looking for 300zx tt, and sc400/300s
now i find that 300zx's break down and that sc400/300s get avg 15mpg....
and compared to our celicas with avg 30mpg they suck.
i have a college student budget and am feelin like crap because i cant make up my mind
what do u guys recommend?
i really want power in my next car as my 1st was the celi
but at the same time reliable and decent gas mileage
thanks!

let me know if i should get a new celica and do mods to it or just go for the sc300

Its actually kind of tough to make an extreme comparison without venturing into muscle or supercar territory :'(
I'll stick with the Panoz roadster. You can't go wrong with a V8 powered 2 seat roadster as being both uneconomical and impractical.. especially when it had the 302. biggrin.gif

I still would want one though kindasad.gif
