Opinions for new car
Hi everyone, new guy here and I need your opinions. I'm looking to get a new ride and I'm debating between a couple cars and need your opinions. Here are my choices:
1.) G35coupe
2.) 350Z
3.) S2000
4.) Wrx Sti
5.) RX-8
6.) something that would be comparable in price.
What are your opinions on these other cars. I'm looking for something fun to drive, looks good, as well as good performance. I know AWD owns in the 1/4 mile but what about top end for the Sti? Let me know what you guys think since you guys would know best about Scoobies.

I would immediately cancel out the S2k, 350z and RX8. The S2k doesn't have enough power and I wouldn't want a convertible for a daily, the RX-8 has low power and gets poor gas mileage, and why buy a 350Z when you can get the G35c?
Down to the G35C and STi, it depends on why you want the car. Want a GT that you can haul *** through the mountains with and still look proffessional when you pull in to the work parking lot? G35c. Want a car that has tons of torque and hp, will eat up just about anything you can throw at it, but you sacrifice that proffessional look? STi.

1.) Cool in a JDM bling way. Expensive. Slow. FR. Non-tubo.
2.) Same as above, but not as bling.
3.) Very nice, but slow and overpriced for what it is. VTEC what?
4.) Cool. Fast. AWD. Turbo.
5.) Very nice, but slow and non-turbo.
6.) EVO MR?

1.) G35coupe cool but impractical
2.) 350Z toned down wuss version
3.) S2000 not cool since they made the motor bigger
4.) Wrx Sti
5.) RX-8 discontinued because it sucked so much
6.) something that would be comparable in price C6

Thanks for your opinions guys. What about top end power on the Sti? I like the G35 but the interior seems kinda...lacking. Same for the 350z. And everyone says the s2k is a "dog" around town and you have to keep it in the higher rpms. I know AWD ownz down low....I wish I could combine the best elements of all the cars into 1 extra super ride....
Anyways, keep your opinions coming! I really appreciate the time you guys took to answer my questions. If I do end up getting a scooby, I'll be sure to become a regular here

Are you buying new or used?
myadvice: WRx STi or an Audi S4. A slightly used S4 might be worth checking out if your into Audi's at all. I test drove the S4 a few years ago and aside from the smooth, swift ride, the interior is insane. Also, the STi is an incredible ride as well. THink about it: AWD, powerful-turbo engine, great handling, bottom line you can't go wrong with an STi.

Why not a G35x? AWD, with the bling of a G35.

G35 or STi hands down. U just have to decide if you want luxury or speed. If you have the money for mods later on, the G35 with a TT system would be sick.
