Definitely a option, i like the front end but the dismal 0-100 isn't helping its cause.

Golf R
My friend is out of the race. He has caved to a new Golf R...... Not in my price bracket but would be an excellent car. It doesn't arrive until October though and wasn't cheap as he went fully optioned.

I was considering WRX, Golf, Megane 250 Cup. I ended up buying a 97 Soarer because I have a soft spot for them. ill be looking to purchase the 86 in a year or so

Yes the focus ST is getting good reviews. If you need to transport people more regularly. Could be a good option, but I'm personally happy to wait for the RWD BRZ.
There is a comparison in Wheels mag between the 86 GT, MX5, RS250 and the WRX. If there is any interest i could scan it up and post it? |

There is no alternatives. You can't beat the 86 for the price. Ami I kidding myself. I still would have bought it if it was 10k more. |

[QUOTE=Palmy;148436]Liberty - Yeeaaahhh... kinda seems like a bigger heavier Impreza to me, I dont really see why you'd buy one over a WRX. Thoughts?
QUOTE] if u get the 3.0L 6cyl Libertyit has a hell of an engine. Basically if u modify the exhaust u get a Porsche sounding beast espesh if its turbo. Also a good daily while ur at it. Just my thoughts tho about the car |
