mazda mx3, mx6, or mx5.
my first car was an mx3 v6. for a small car, it was pretty peppy. hella reliable and good on gas too.
with your budget, maybe look into a 2000 mx5. plus you can get away with it since you are a girl.

| 02 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS 00 VW GTI GLX VR6
Two not-so-bad cars within your budget. The Impreza ought to be solid and a good choice.

I would not touch a $7000 STi...

MK4 GTI 1.8T has a bit of go as well. Not as much as the VR, but it should be a bit easier on gas.

i would still go for the civic/integra though. everything is just cheaper that way.

you need to post a picture of yourself so that we can list some cars that would be suitable for you.
if you are cute, you wouldn't want us to recommend mustangs or whatever to you.
if you are tall, you wouldn't want us to recommend mazda miata.
more pics the better.
if you don't know how to post pics on this forum, pm me your number so I can help you out.

PS: I actually do like Mustangs.
PPS: I'm 5"1. Far from being tall.

Trouble is finding a lower mileage 1.8T. Just be aware that any parts needed for the VW would be a bit higher than Japanese cars. Posted via RS Mobile |

Thanks everyone for the input. I've decided to go with an Integra GSR or a Civic SiR. Hopefully, I'll find one on here or craigslist that runs well, in good condition and in my budget.
I've lowered my budget to $5500
If anyone is selling one, hit me up.
