Hey guys/gals, so being a member of 6gc for years now, who should I trust more than you guys to help me pick my next car. And believe me, I love my car but being from Cincinnati (center of the most random weather) I am needing a moderately low mileage, nice, awd (for the crazy winters) and intro-luxury(compared to the celica) lol car. I was particularly interested in the 6speeds options because the car will be making some trips to visit friends. SOOO VOTE ON!!
Oh, and if I am missing something I should consider please let me know. thanks. This post has been edited by cjh4l22: Jan 19, 2011 - 11:58 PM -------------------- proud =3sgte SWAPPED= '95 Celica ST owner [calling it the GT2 or half-trac]

They are a sport sedan with the "semi-luxuries" that you are probably looking for. If you look for a 2002+ you can even find them in a manual. I mean c'mon, its a LEXUS!

QUOTE (RUNNIN-LOW @ Jan 21, 2011 - 2:24 PM) i agree with player..is250..  audi's arent all that great..way too much work and you dont want to deal with the allen nutz and bolts.. unless you get a m3 and send it off to horsepower freaks to make it a beast. x's 3. ONLY Problem is... I don't have $18k for a 2006+ IS250 AWD because I was planning on spending more like <$12k thanks though. I have also considered subaru's but they hold their value really well so its tough to find low miles, early-mid '00's in my price range. Suggestions are very much appreciated. and no on the alltrac v6. (although i have a similar swap idea) -------------------- proud =3sgte SWAPPED= '95 Celica ST owner [calling it the GT2 or half-trac]
