so im going to get a new car looking to spend give or take 25k, i want a nice fast car but I dont want to have to mod it. So here goes what would you get for around 25k?
WRX............maybe I just love them too much
I need a sig
I would go for a 2004 GTO
Fast/fun cars for around $25K:
Dodge Neon SRT-4 ($21K)
Chevy Cobalt SS Supercharged ($21K)
Subaru Impreza WRX ($24K)
Ford Mustang GT ($26K)
Mitsubishi Eclipse GT ($26K)
Mazda RX-8 ($26.5K)
Any one of those would be a fun car without the need to mod, and they all make easy everyday drivers.

Looks good, has decent speed, but that's pretty much isnt it?
I'd got for the 04 GTO, which is what I'll be getting shortly.... hopefully.

350z is way sweeter then a wrx.....
srt-4, pontiac G6 GTP coupe ( a tad out of your price range tho), cobalt ss s/c or ION redline, pontiac solstice, used GTO, mustang GT
there are all kinda cars you can get for that much
whats the 1/4 mile on the GTO??
Wait for a few months and order a tC with the TRD supercharger and have money left over for gas.
I may be somewhat partial, but Legacy GT....can definetly get on 05 for around that as 06's are hitting lots slowly.....vastly superior over the WRX, if you aren't looing to mod. Not to mention its faster than a rex, close for 0-60, but it will walk it on the highway easily.
Really depends where you live. 350z is nice and all, but if you have any snow, forget about it. So many choices in that range.

HAHA I Agree, imagine that!!! From the list people have given you, i say a 350 Z. But like Zline here said, this car is already quick, you add the SC and youll be beating a lot of those cars on your list and still have 4K left over
You better bring more than 25K if you want to get a 06 350Z. The ones the wife and I looked at were over 30K.
Thats what i was thinking too. ive seen some used ones around here for around 24-25
Yep.....we were thinking about getting one until we saw the price of the 06 anniversary edition one! Very nice though!
Yeah im sure. Hold their value pretty well too.
I say no on an RX-8, one of the manager has one, and he HATES it. He likes his RSX that he traded in for itbetter. Hes had this thing in the shop SOOOO many times its not even funny, and it gets the worst @!#$ gas mileage ever
I was looking at Nissan's site just out of curiosity, base 350Zs start at 26,700 before destination, tax, etc. I'd imagine it'd be 28K minimum to get one out the door.
mustang
& if you do get the mod bug, you can't beat the mustang aftermarket for go fast & look good goodies
NOT broke
rsx type S or maybe a TSX. I'd stay away from the 350z or rx8 those shouldn't be daily drivers that's a week-end car.
02 LS1 F body.. and have 10k left over...for a supercharger, intake manifold, headers, rear end, and a stage3 clutch
04 gto 1/4 mile about 13.5ish
can get one for 22kish
here is a link
click
search for some gto's also there is rumor that there are still some 04s at dealers
if you look hard enough you can get a c5 for around that price.

I agree, I saw a couple around my area around the 26-28k range. If you could find a vette around your area for that price, I would jump on it.
If not, there are some S4's going for pretty good prices around your price range. That is if you are willing to go for a used car.
Have a good one,
