I know it's not an original thread, but everyone loves car threads, right? Fwiw I did use the search function and read similar threads I could find, such as (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/34...ad-20k-534494/ and http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/34...buy-35k-73680/). Anyways, not sure about coup vs sedan, probably used (buying used >>> buying new, right?) so:

Honda Accord

Infiniti G35/G37

Nissan 350z

Audi A5 (looks pretty hot, but is closer to 40k new [I have absolutely no idea what to look for in used cars] so dunno why I'm listing it but w/e)

other (open to suggestions as I dunno **** about cars)

Basically just looking for suggestions for cars that are within my budget range. Suggestions appreciated.

i would take the bus and pay someone $24,998 to wipe out your whole family and anyone who even heard your name and divert a river over your grave.

beat me to it, damn you

actually i'd have to bring it in for $24,997.75 ... ****ing MTA

i have an 08' G35 and highly reccomend it.

buy a used for 5k, use 20k on cheeze its.

OP deserves cheese nips

2009 toyota camry.

- stylish

- highly reliable

- [x] 25k

Audi A4

used evo x gsr, see em for 25-28k or an 09 wrx. Mazdaspeed 3.

flip for it twice and then buy a an aston martin

350z

Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4 door (lifted)

mazdaspeed 3

I have an 06 350 that I looooove. I wouldn't trade it for any other car in the price range.

Buy used, but unfo you still won't be able to get a decent A5 at that pricepoint. You could get a nice A4 from a couple years ago. Lots of other nice used cars to be had for $25k too.

if i had 25k i wouldn't spend it all on a carm but i like the audi there

if you're canadian (judging by the jays avatar), 25k for most of those cars is unrealistic (other than the accord) unless you plan on going several years old / high milage.

i was looking at that price range when deciding and was considering all the things you have on your list.

i was pretty close to blowing 30-35k on a g35, but finally admitted to myself that i thought it was ****ing stupid considering i really dont care about cars at all. I ended up getting an 06 mazda3 with all the options i wanted for 13k, and i dont ever regret it.


im not saying that more expensive cars are bad buys, but i think unless you really know what you want (which im guessing you dont if you posted this thread), you shouldnt hold yourself to a specific price range just because you want to blow the money.


maybe im just out of touch with reality, but i cant imagine girls being impressed by an audi. i mean, everyone knows theyre expensive - but an A4 isnt going to bring them to their knees... so to speak.

can we bring back '-iagf' for these types of threads?

G35 AINEF

Love my Z.

am I really going to have to start shinning up my ban hammer?
