Lancer MR is a 2.0 litre pushing 286 hp, has the highest displacement ratio of anything, shit is incredible. I like those a lot. Luxury aint there though. Still beats the STi by like 0.1 sec in everything, kind of funny. Those are real tight but no luxury. Laugh at Audi, look at the front end of their new lines, ugly. They go from top engineering like the old S4, turbo, to just big V8's, the easy way out. It's sad for them. Although the RS lines are very very nice. Still I'd go with G35 coupe , 350z, or an M3. I hope you get it soon though that is tight.

And that car isn't an A7, the A7 is an SUV geared towards Pikes Peak. At one of the Audi dealers out here they had an all black one in the showroom, still in the primer shit they use for concept vehicles, it was all dirty and shit like it just came off the mountain, it was pretty cool I guess.

Audi V8's aren't that big, man. Most are 4.2 litres, high revving chucks of technology. They churn out a respectable 80bhp per litre at least. The RS4 makes 100bhp per litre. Unblown engine. Thats :thumb: .

Yeah like you said, respectable. I like Audi' but there new looks throw me off, I'm still not a fan of the V8 look they are going for. I'm sure they will be a good car though an Audi is an Audi. Old S4 > new S4. Hardly anyone thinks that but whatever, I love em.

The problem with the old Audi line is that they all look like Passats (which they are). Everytime a car company comes out with a new design for their cars there is generally mixed reviews from the customers, and after a couple of years, everyone usually jumps onto the wangon (outside of the 7 series design which BMW modified a couple of years later).

I might have to take a look at the S4 anyway just to experience another car that is fun to drive. But it seems to be a general agreement that the G35 is the best choice (and fortunately enough is my top choice as well)

 

[ARon]

Wait for the RS4 is you're going to look at Audi, but then those might be out of your price range. But yeah, performance wise there is no problem with the S4, just ahve fun, I want to go buy a new car again now.

Edit: Do you like the new 3 series at all? They aren't as fast but very luxurious and they look nice. Just tossing out ideas.

get the G35. out of that list

 

[tennis_dog]

i dont see what's so good about the g35?? and i also dont understand this "engineering" crap people on this board keep talking about??


the m3's are straight, the S4's are all good....if i had a choice though,, i'd just go with the 3 series outta the two...just cuz its a beemer

All great cars. Personally I like a lot of room and I would pick the Lincoln. They look very nice black with chrome package and black/chrome lip rims.
Some cars to check out would be: 7 or 5 series BMW, Mercedes E class (S class will cost a lot of maintanance), or Chrysler 300C.
All of these are sedans.
If you want sporty, the G35 is a very good pick. Not a fan of the S2000 not saying it's a bad car just not a fan.

The M3 or the 3 seriesare very good cars just make sure to get 2000and up when buying a BMW. Lots of electrical problems with earlier models.

I'm not saying the M3 isn't a nice car, by all means, if I could afford it I would buy it straight up.

The reason that I am going to stay away from BMW is that parts and maintance are expensive. I know people that drive BMWs and when they need to go in to replace brakes or whatever, they are paying a hell of a lot more than a jap import.

I love it how people are throwing out ideas for me, I really appreciate it, but keep in mind...I can only afford 30k max.
