Broke_Audio_Addict Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 It would help to know your price range. That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

REVOofRustler Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Or a Lancer evoevos = 25k used. Way out of my range ? but Mazda 6s I heard are stock quick but the engine layout isn't a user friendly tuner.The serious cars I was looking at WRX , 08+ G35, s2k, 07+ 350z, maybe an Audi s4 older?, or a is300. I have to also factor in insurance and MPG If you're looking for low maintenance, forget about an S4. I've been looking into S4's recently and the B5's (1998-2002) have issues with the stock K03 turbos blowing, intake pipes tearing, and sensors going out. B6/7's (2003 - 2008) have issues with the timing chains around the 100k mark. The timing chain assembly is on the back of the block too, so along with spending 3-5 grand on replacement parts, you'll also have to pull the motor to get it done. As far as looking at alternatives, keep in mind that just because the other cars aren't WRX's doesn't mean they won't be driven hard. 2002 Dodge Dakota 4.7 club cab - Sold 2004 Audi S4 Avant - Fi and Crescendo - Stock Bose System - http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/147725-2002-dodge-dakota-end-of-the-road/?hl=%202002%20%20dakota 136.4 Sealed @ 29hz 137.0 Drivers window open @ 26hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionStang Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Every one of the cars you listed will have had the shit driven out of it. Just pick what you like. Be sure to go over any potential vehicle in a very detailed manner, even have a mechanic give it a once over if possible.

Baydestrian Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Yeah fuck an S4, grab B6 A4, just a timing belt kit not chain so its way cheaper. The 1.8T can be easily modded. I love my Avant. My buddy bought a Stage 3 B6 18 and is rebuilding it b/c the owner fucked him over. He's pretty much doing it himself and is helping me with minor shit on my car. 2015 Mazda 6 JVF Customz 4.0 Proto 15>Wolfram W4500 @ .5ohm 2 Sundown Neo 6.5 + 2 CT Meso Tweeters (Front) x Kicker KS6.5 (Rear)>JL Audio VX400/4i NSB-AMG35 (front) / 40ah Lithium Headway (Rear) built by Erni Audio & Electrical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be sure to go over any potential vehicle in a very detailed manner, even have a mechanic give it a once over if possible. even the g35 sedans ? I'm looking at sedans because coupes insurance and just the overall factor that most tuned g35s are coupes, not all, but most. And about the Audi, how is the mechanical work for being German? Is it less than the Beamer ? Mechanical is a big thing too as I don't want my car in the Shop every other weekend. I got a homie mechanic but if I'm at his house every weekend to fix minor shit, it might not be worth it to me cuz I'm still a college student.

Aj11 Posted September 16, 2014 Report Share Posted September 16, 2014 out of all the cars listed my last pic would be the 350z. just no thanks. as far as the audi, my buddy just sold his stage 3 rs4. every other week there was a issue. it was fast..real fast when it was working. but sold it and bought a S2000. he's never been happier. things quick handles great mods don't cost $1,000,000. i know your leaning towards a 4 door,so id say g35 sedan. (i know there damn near the same as a 350 but the 350 is just so ugly..and slow) or the S2000 id still go with a G 8 Pontiac tho ; ) jvc deck stinger 1800 front hc 2000 kinetic rear 2 runs of 1/0g big 3/4 ct 60.4 2 ct 1400.1 ct EXO 15 d1 lots of deadner type r comps front stage 6 kicker tweets rear stage lots of great stuff coming soon ho alt more bats ct comps for front stage more deadner sweet amp rack lots of L.E.D lights new deck (thinking 80 prs, or flip out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My overall is a supra ? but anyways I would get a s2k , but I'm 19, and INSURANCE IS SKY HIGH haha. But I love s2k. 8-9k redline, 2.0-2.2 4 cyl 240 hp 6 speed?! And it's HONDA??? I fuck with it but it cost about 12-20k used for an AP1/2 with 120 miles + on the low side and 60-80+ on high. Can't afford it. And 350z and G35, I'll get the sedan cause 350 is insurance too. But I'm looking at an 08. Idk the reasons why you dislike the 350, but I couldn't buy the 07-08 prior engine with the DE engine which had oil problems. I'm looking at the newer HR engines. And for Pontiac , never had an American car ... Ever haha or driven one in fact. Only car American I drove is a mustang GT lmfao MOB-MOBILE: 2005 Honda Accord 5-Speed System: (1) Sundown Audio SA-15 (1) MB Quart ONX1.1500D (1) Kenwood KDC-248U Speakers: -Rear Dash: (2) Clarion SRQ6932R 6x9's SOLD New MOB-MOBILE: 2011 G37S Sedan System:TBD Instagram (18+) : DabsWitaBudget415 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
