I might be buying a new car soon.. what does the misc think? (13k+)

[arn710]

Vipers suck

hot, loud, uncomfortable, hard to drive

[55]

I vote lexus. Reliable, damn good looking interior, get new I-H-E, smoke M3s all day. Plus, they are more unique imo.

If you get bored of the lexus I'll buy it from you in a year or two, lawl.

I think they are faster than M3s stock. But I hear ya.

Weekend driver, I'll have a dedicated DD if I get one. Have you owned one?

Why do I feel like this car purchase would make up more than 50% of your net worth.

Because you went to University of Florida? I dunno

[Ace Thedics]

Don't get the viper, Dodge is a piece of ****

Ide go with the Lexus just cause it will hold better value

'Dodge is a piece of ****'

Do you even ****ing know what you're talking about here?

As always, jealousy appears.

OP I'd go for the rarer of that list, 02' Viper. Then mod it. The rest are seen nearly every day.

The Viper shouldn't be loud? OP don't waste your time on a lame ass ISF. You already have a daily driver, pick something that is fun and that you can track when you want.

Viper hnnngggg

[cocoalotion]

You live in CT, it snows there, so I'd go with the Lexus. The Viper is fun, but not an ideal car (even as a weekend car) for the North East.

I see at least 3-4 M3s on my commute everyday, rarely see an IS-F.

You would choose an 02 as opposed to an 03+ due to the styling I presume?

Yep. They're not fun to drive. Ever

Would be a April-November car, I know it snows here. The Lexus is still high on the list, would be cheaper all around because of reliability and not needing a dedicated commuter, which I already have and would trade in.

Yep. They're not fun to drive. Ever

What gen did you have? What turned you against the car? Very curious.

Yeah.

Before I went ahead and bought I actually considered the IS-F and a B7 RS4. Ended up dropping the IS-F idea first.

[NewDude92]

c6 z06? Would be nasty with basic mods and in budget

in b4 interior

[datdudeaf]

e46 m3 or s2000

I dd an s2000

[55]

Yeah.

How come? I'm guessing because you weren't necessarily looking for an everyday car. You bought an 02?

[55]

c6 z06? Would be nasty with basic mods and in budget

If I go for a fun car (ie not an ISF) I really dont' care about the interior, the sensation and thrill is a lot higher on my list. I just see so many C6s everyday.

Done

If you go with the m3, you should definitely use it as your DD, no reason not to.
But if you just want a fun weekend car, definitely go with the viper. My ex's dad has one and we used to take it out during the spring/summer on the weekends. Thing is a fukkin blast to drive.

Yea, looks like it would be fun. I know the z06 might be slightly faster but they seem to be everywhere. The Viper has that rarer feel and look to it, and since they are similarly priced, I'd go with the Viper. Still waiting to hear from Ace Thedics.

Even though it seems that the ISF is rarer than both.

Not jealous at all, I drive one of the cars OP listed.

[arn710]

2004 IIRC. Its like I described above. Its like driving a race car. Just super raw and not fun to drive.

Get a Z06 bro. No comparison

Hm well I'll keep that in mind when I go on test drives. Thanks for the input. The Z06 is definitely worth its weight, just seems to be dime a dozen, probably for good reason..

Not jealous at all, I drive one of the cars OP listed.

Cool, which one? Any input other than ignorant comments?

[blackflgst]

BMWs are the king of being unreliable after the warranty is up. Out of that list I would go with the ISF. Have you considered the new Evos? I've owned an 8 and a 2010 Evo and I love it. Things are beasts on the track.

[SINxCITY]

still have my zcp e46 M3. no problems *knocks on wood*

[MaV II DARK II]

get the m3

[sixstarchlo]

ISF = 15-20mpg.... i feel like im missing something here, isnt the purpose of a daily driver to not waste shitloads of gas?

[GNCbrah]

That feel when you have no car :,(
