Ok so I'll tell little story first:
ATM I have one old car, can't say its crappy its.. meh. Anyway, its not legal to ride here before 18 so that's one of reasons I don't have nice one.( I'm 17 and half). In 3 months I'll be going to USA for a year and once I get back I plan to buy new car.
Now, I've been doing lot of thinking and these are things I want about car: Sporty got classy or luxurious look, not sporty as in racing.
I have budget of 50.000$, maybe bit more. Also I'll be importing car from USA back to my country so it's as I'm buying it there(got all worked out about that, just need to pick).
So I've been researching[B][/B] a bit and looking for cars that fit my profile and I found(or well, know since before but..) few nice ones, here's list:
*Audi TT - Audi is my favorite car brand, also german cars are my favorite. I do like look of it, got all I ask for but is also most expensive one of all. 3.2 quattro coupe, not sure if automatic or manual hmm. But I also read it's kinda slow at higher speeds but well, I wont be racing ![]()
*Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GT - read nice things about it and saw few nice videos. Need more info about it though.
*Mazda RX-8 - also read/seen nice things about it but its kinda weak, 1.3 engine and also heard it uses too much gas( gas here is actually more expensive then in USA :/ ) but read its really fast.
*Nissan 350Z - don't know much about this one, just seen it on top gear, looks fine but didn't score that good on top gear.
Now, beside sporty luxy(lol) look I want it to be nice inside. I'm not looking for racecar so nice modern look inside. Not full plastic, crappy buttons etc.
Think that's it. Not sure if I should add anything else.
I'll be checking this often so feel free to ask anything.
Edit: forgot, I'll be buying new one, latest year probably(in this case 2009 or 2008)

sorry to break it to you man but we don't do that type of thing around here... You buy a car to your heart's desire not on what we say. I could tell you to get an air cooled Volkswagen and give you a bunch of reasons why, but none of that matters, because it is your money and your car so I or any other cant decide for you.
But to give you a hint I've driven an RX-8 and I owned a 350Z... I am on the other side of the spectrum from you pal so if I were to choose.... get the RX-8 its up your alley. (Damn it I chose for you!)

I didn't want anyone to chose for me, I just wanted to hear some new things about one of these and help me decide which on is best.
I'll probably do test ride of each and check them out but hmm, you can't find out everything just with 1 test drive. Only how it feels and what it will be like if you buy it.
Still, TT is my favorite but other ones look better

Got new 1st choice car!
Mercedes SLK 350!
Think it fits price range or goes little bit over but manageable.
Thoughts? And anyone got info about price?

Nolimit, what country are you from? If you are from Europe and want an Audi or a Mercedes they are going to be cheaper back home.

From what I've seen they cost more in Germany then in USA.
Mabybe it's only because euro<->dollar rate but still can save quite a lot.
Anyway, think I decided what my #1 choice is so thanks all for helping
