Let me know what you guys think and post your cars you have now. (Post cars that you payed with your own money. I don't want to see what your parents let you drive.) Your post screams subaru. I suggest an Impreza/WRX or the like. Hell, een if you dont mind, a Forester. However, from your post: 4th Gen (1997-2005) VW Golf Gti or a VR6 - No Acura Integra 1993-2001 - Vtec yo!!!! NOOOO Toyota Supra 1986-1992 (thinking it will be too old) - Waaaay too old and too expensive still. 240sx 1995-1998 - The Fast and the Furious was what... 10 years ago? Same goes with NFS: Underground. 1998-2002 Impreza RS - Good category. 2001-2004 Toyota Tacoma - Yes. Hell fuckin yes. With an extended cab. Stick with something that has AWD or 4WD. But if you really wanna ride with style (and prolly be the only one by you with it), then rock what i have. Throw some Blizzaks on for the winter and your good to go. =P      Yes. I paid for it myself. 2004 Mazda Rx-8 Currently with 19.1k miles. Fully loaded with sunroof and navi. One owner, garaged kept, no accidents. Bought with 14k miles for $13,750. Private owner so NO FEEEEES. Be like me and kneel to the rotory god! |

If you get a Tacoma, you will have an outside bed obviously. Chances are, if your gonna transport your bike with it, you wont have that thing covering your bed to keep items from being damaged by weather. Having an extended cab allows you to transport people, and have the back small seats for luggage or other stuff if you dont want it in the bed. Plus, the extended cab to me makes the Tacoma look more badass. The Golf, well, i like it. But i dont think it is the car that will fit your needs as much as your other options. If the Tacoma or any subaru cars (or anything else that's in that category) are not game, then go with the GTI. I like the GTI hence the reason why i didnt bash it. I just think you have better options for what you need. PLUS, if it is not a lease or doesnt have warranty, then any sort of maintenance or repairs are gonna cost a fuckload. Its VW. VW = German German = awesome engineering Awesome engineering = expensive If you decide on a car then go check to see if there are any official forums for that specific vehicle. I did the same for my Rx8 so i can get my knowledge on. It really helps alot. If you have anymore questions then feel free to ask. I have a pretty good understanding of cars. |

And I think the golf fits my needs really well. A lot of people on my biking forum have them and it is sooo easy to throw the bikes on the roof. The bads for the impreza is that its a awd meaning its heavy as fuck, if something happens with the awp tranny things will be pricey as fuck, they are expensive. I don't know if I really want a truck anymore simply for the gas consumption. If I did get a tacoma I would want the v6. Idk performance wise I truly think the GTI vr6 is the best bang for its buck. Rusty your truck is fucking sick. And i'm not a fan of the r8s but they do look sick. The interior in that rx8 looks soo nice too. I would be down for a mazda 6 mazdaspeed but I don't have that type of cash. I mean I am only 18 :/ This is my buds xrunner. He is a spoiled fuck and his mom payed for 100% of it.

A 305 horsepower V6 is definitely worth buying, especially since it's about 13k or more cheaper. | ||
