Option1)
2010 Ninja ZX6R and a forester or legacy for the DD.

Option 2)
Find used WRX or STI (06-07) for a once in a life time opportunity buy of about 10k, then buy a salavaged 2015 wrx powertrain and do the swap that was meant to be. +\- a few thousand.

I'm in this camp. I'll keep the FR-S until one of us dies, but eventually it will have a C7 garage mate, or be replaced by one if the FR-S rolls off a cliff (and I survive).

Good question. I'd probably keep my 86--since I wouldn't get even half of what I put into her--and go with a stock GT-R... And then I saw the price of that bi*ch and decided it's probably not happening, unless I want to say single.

Sooo, backup plan is buy an old muscle car. Maybe a 68/69 Camaro, early 70's Chevelle, Impala, or maybe a Charger and put a Chevy big block in it.

I do like the 2014 Chevy SS but the price is a little high when Lexus, BMW and other brands have similar functions (just not the hp).

Well if I got 20k out of it the first thing I would buy would be a BMW s1000rr and then I would use the rest as a down payment for a BMW m4, c7 z06, or a new fr-s but wait for the 2016s to come out and buy a used tdi Jett's until then haha
