Im about to trade my Scion tc and i will like to know whats the best cars under $35000?

 

subaru legacy 2.5 gt spec b

 

what about the nissan 370z sport package

 

Used M3

 

G37 / 370z / 135i / maybe a 335i if u find a deal / IS250 / IS350 / possibly STI / EVOX go check em out im sure their around 35k ^_^

 

depends on what you're looking for.

 

I looking for performance and a fun car to drive

 

250 bhp turbocharged engine with a 6 speed manual transmission, awd, primo interior, heated leather seats, light weight car, great brakes, limited slip differential,

the car is a sleeper, looks nice and civilized enough, but it is quick.

since the car is already turbocharged, making more power is a breeze by either increasing boost, swapping turbos, upgrading manifolds, bigger intercooler etc.

it could leave that z in the dust rain or shine.

 

oh wait, the subaru legacy is 35,290. just over the limit, but a regular gt limited, or 3.0 R is much cheaper than 35 grand and could still kick a 370z's butt.

 

what about the evo x

 

You might have to wait a little for a dealer to have one in stock but it would be oh so worth it

Even the new Mustang gt is a good choice

 

2006 Lotis Exige............no need to say more.........it wil rape most every car in the price range.........race car on poor mans budget.........most have under 3000 miles on them.....really..........and is toyota if you are a loyal fan.........LOTUS........35000

 

well for under 35,000 i'd personally go with the lancer rallisport because its not as high maintenance as the evo and a much bigger base to build off of.

 

if all you want is budget dollar performance, sure, the evox probably beats them all hands down. but the interior sucks, mitsubishi's reputation and reliability aren't as good, and if they don't start doing better, they might not stay in the US much longer.

you said best car for under 35 k, and for me, that is a subaru legacy. the car is fast, classy, handles well, has awd so you can use it rain or shine, has plenty of room inside with 4 doors and a big trunk.

depends on what you need or want from a car. the subaru to me is a much better value per dollar than the nissan or evo because the nissan lacks in versatility, and the evo lacks in quality and luxury. they also scream for cops to pull you over and harrass.

other good buys would be a toyota rav4 v6 AWD limited. if you want an SUV, but you can't get one with a manual, so that is a big no for me wanting one.

 

geez drax.......thought you would like the lotus.......200lbs and all gogog go.........

 

i could probably barely fit in a lotus. watching jeremy clarkson craw out of one after test driving it keeps me away. (i love it when he reviews cars cuz we are about the same height, so i can tell if i can atleast fit into cars comfortibly)

but no, my philosophy about cars is pretty much gran turismo, nothing in excess (except maybe horsepower). i like my cars fast and comfortible, and useful. i don't care for stripped interiors, or VIP seats and decorations, giant chrome rims, or a trunk full of subs and amps. they are nice on show cars and such, but really not for me in day to day life. my car reflects that, sport suspension, lsd, supercharter (soon to be replaced by a turbo), but i have leather seats, interior lights, once the turbo is in, i'll put in a nice little audio system, upgraded speakers and a stealth sub woofer so i don't lose trunk space. car will be respectably fast and comfy.

 

a used 335i or a used Carrera :D

 

Is the used cayman a good car

 

look, all i can say is when it comes to buying german cars...how much do their replacement parts cost? how hard is it to work on them?

bmw's don't even come with a friggan dipstick anymore for the oil cuz they want you to bring it to the dealership only.

an oil change on my dad's 03 cayenne S costs 210 dollars at a dealership, but we found a place that'll do it for 90 cuz it requires a special porsche oil filter, and uses like 8 quarts of mobil1.

then look at the cost of brake pads, clutches, tires, rotors, etc. i think i read that the turbochargers on the 335 are rated to last 60k miles, how much does it cost to replace those?

so while i love german sports cars, they are simply ridiculous to own these days.

also, is this thread about 35 k for a new car, or any car? cuz then it could go on forever! but i would then say used corvette z06.

 

Drax is absolutely right, their sick cars, but a PITA to maintain, especilally with higher mileage (Carrera)
