Celica Forums General Discussion General What Would You Get...

Ok well I can't decide on whether I should mod the Celi (like turbo, system, and whatnot) or save up and buy a new car in a year. So my question for you guys is what car would you get if you had about 35k?

I would really like to get another 2 door because I just don't like the looks of 4 doors.

for 35k... i would get a 350Z

import a gt-4 all trac
-ash

GT-4 is almost 10 years old... i wouldn't spend 35k a car that old...

350Z is too tiny... get a G35, it's looks good, classy, comfortable, quite fast, and sounds mean. what more can you ask for... also, it's a rear wheel drive.

celica

if you can throw down 4 k then turbo it... if you need to save it then get a new car.

I would get an evo

id wait for the x-runner and get it with the supercharger...if its available by then

VW R32

smart man...

^^^He said two door, not four door.

Get a G35 Coupe. Nice cars! I think they're just under $35k.

RX-8
S2000
RSX

yes, evo is 4 door, and the best looking 4 door sedan on the market. go test drive an evo and feel the power...

-used E36 M3
-used S4
-S2000
-RX-8
-G35
-350Z
-slightly used SVT Cobra, you'd hafta look hard though.

Exactly what i would have said minus the cobra and 350z, add the acura tl.

If money isn't a factor, sure get another car as a new car is usually nice. But assuming you won't pay cash for the new car, you'll lose a lot of money by getting a new car. Turbo is IMO the best financial move if money is an issue.

EVO Baby!

G35 or EVO for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes evo8's are fricken insane!

mazda rx-8 i wouldve got one of those if i couldve afforded it

I'm saving for a Lotus Elise

^^nice choice

but i'd say
350Z
G35
RX-8
i know you don't like 4drs...but the TL is nice.

me personally (i know no 4 doors, but):
-Evo 8 (Dream Car number 1A)
-STI (Dream Car number 1B)
-RX-7 TT (Dream Car number 2A)
-Supra TT (Dream Car number 2B)
-300ZX Tubro (Dream Car number 3A)
-350Z (Dream Car number 3B)
-G35
-Audi TT
-Audi S4
-S200

Import a Celica TSport from Europe or Japan

you can get a lot for 35k
depends thought if you want something that work all year...being you are in chicago, you're gonna get snow...so rear wheel drive isn't gonna work unless you have a second car.

Like Billy said, the RWD factor is one to consider. You COULD drive a RWD sports car, but it'll be tough on snow.

Anyway, I'd say S2000 all the way. If you don't like four doors (like me), there really is no better car for under $40k. The 350z has been proven to have major issues with both the suspension and transmission, neither of which has been confirmed as fixed, even for the 05 model year. Even excluding that point, havinga convertible and a 8k redline is fun.

EVO MR

used nsx

Get a big turbo and make it a super car then save money and buy a car to drive and the celica for weekend race driving.

Supra TT

if i were you i would wait awhile. japan is obviously bringing back there sport/muscle cars to the states. it's a matter of time before europe and eventually, maybe, probably not usa will come out with cheap sport cars.
