Check your area to see if you can come across any used Cobalt SS. The car is stupid fast with the Turbo version mated to a manual trans, and It's one of the most underrated cars of the last decade.


0-60 in barely under 6 seconds is "stupid fast"...? I'll give you the stupid but... I'm not so sure about the fast part. FF... no thanks.


Car and Driver seemed to be quite taken with the car.

0-60 in 5.7 seconds is only a part of the story. Using that as the only parameter, my Cummins is a better vehicle than a Camaro.

the 350Z is the nicest unless the TT is the 3.2 VR6. The mustang is crap

The tt would be the fastest out of all the cars listed. If it is the quattro 1.8t, you can upgrade the ECU, Turbo, Air intake, exhaust for about 19k. That'll give you about 500hp and 0-60 in about 3.5 to 4 seconds

The funniest thing about car culture is that inevitably some old guy rolls up in a Caterham 7 that he's lovingly owned since the 60s and casually blows everyone away.

get a 2001-2006 Audi S4 or RS4. My dad and I just test drove an RS4 and that thing is amazing

  • 11.25.2012 5:59 PM PDT

Subaru WRX now. Audis are okay but a -blam!- in the maintance department as with most things German.

Gamers don't die, they just go offline.

"...and the fanboys will unite to slay the Call of Duty threat for the greater good of gaming."

The Lamborghini Aventador and Corvette ZR1 are my dream cars. The same goes for the '69 Camaro Z28 but it would be too expensive to buy and restore one.

Camaros are pretty cheap to rebuild. I'm not sure about restoring, but one of my friends had a Chevelle SS rebuilt under 20k

  • 11.25.2012 6:09 PM PDT

The 350z for sure.

The Mustang is pretty poor. It may have a V8 but it really isn't powerful.

The Audi really isn't what you want if you want something fast and sporty.

If you look for something that needs some work then you can get a better deal. I just picked up a 04 WRX wagon for 900$ with a bad motor. I'll fix or swap the motor and have a awesome car.

Even better is a 300ZX, friend picked one up with a mistimed engine, rebuilt it for a few hundred, now he has a 300hp beast

Its a twin turbo V6, He had a track version, so its slightly slimmed down

ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY CHROME.

Those 1.8 turbos are nothing special. Plus it's an Audi, which is just a VW, and that screams -blam!-box right there. God damn VW turds. Money pit right there.

You wish, with a little love, a 1.8t can become a 10 second car

Eh, I'm still not into little cars and stuff.

I'd rather take an 8000lb Chevy HD with a Duramax and build the -blam!- out of it and make a 1000hp diesel pushing 2000ftlb of torque that does 12 second quarter miles.

Things still pretty quick stock. I've seen them beat 350's in a straight line.

I want my first car to be a VW Golf GTI, any year. Those things drive like go karts and are a riot.

I have friends and coworkers who drive Audi's and VW's. They have nothing but good things to say about either of them, save for the maintenance costs eats at your wallet.

  • 11.25.2012 7:38 PM PDT

Alt account #4 because i can!

if you want maintenance cost to be low, dont buy an Audi.

If I can convince my parents to help a bit with the costs, then it wouldn't be a problem. They said they weren't against that idea, but they still need to think about it.
