Car to get around $20,000

Nah there has to be something wrong with it if you managed to keep it this long

No. The battery is not loose.

This thing looks decent if they would knock a grand or two off. Like that it's cloth and no sunroof. I'm not dead set on 20K but don't want to go over too much.

I actually saw that exact car this morning and I was thinking what a great one it would be to have. The cloth seats make it even better (can't stand leather in the TX heat). That and the lack of sunroof might make good bargaining points too. If you want a professional (editorial) opinion, Car and Driver just got through recommending the car too. Most_Fun_For $25K.

Test drove an Evo 9 GSR last night, not my cup of tea. Felt too big/floaty with light steering feedback. Power was good but did not like the delivery, lag until 3,000 rpm and a big surge of torque all at once even at 50-75% normal around town acceleration made the car felt very jumpy.

Also drove an 07 Cayman S with 3,000 miles on it. Very nice interior, good ride quality (firm but not jarring) but did not feel anywhere as fast in a straight line as I imagined or read about on paper. Overall pretty nice but kind of mediocre and too much $ in my opinion. Looks more and more like I won't be making any changes unless I fall in love with the E46 M3.

Evo was close, was looking to move down or up. Decided to not do anything, most new cars out there suck Did you buy your new minivan yet?

People call me a 'glass-half-empty' guy. I would venture to say that you're a 'glass-bone-dry' guy.

I already threw the glass against the wall and broke it
