**FutureWS6** · 07-25-2010, 03:04 PM

I never thought I wanted one, till last night i drove my freinds audi a4 to the club. everything was nice about it paddle shifters i mean everything, except went i wanted to go fast. but i enjoyed it. after i got home i wanted some jack in the box tacos at 4am, so i get in my car after just getting home. holy s#$t i fell in love with my t/a all over again. so now i need a dd so i can have this feeling more often. i always loved my car but was like we broke up and got back together the same night haha

but what to get........no honda.....maybe a 350?

Just never buy new! Never worth it! I say..whatever your budget is..how about a geo metro?! Bet youll love and respect your T/A more with that as your DD..lol Nothing like a sub 100 horsepower car to make you appreciate the qualities of american muscle..

Yeah it's something you take for granted, even feels like some of the power is gone. You get back in your Trans Am and feel all powerful!

Get a nice used grand prize GTP or GXP still some power and definitely more comfortable fo DD use. I drove a GXP and fell in love with even the exhaust note. Prices are dropping daily on those older cars since everyone rather have a GTO or G8. I personally don't mine the fed V8 GXP for a DD.

+1 on the G8. Real nice car, 4 doors, no sacrifice in power. Faster than an A4, with close MPG.

This might get me flamed...but how bout a base model lancer? theyre cheap..they handle like crazy..not too slow..and get 34 mpg in town xD..i dont own one just a random idea! Dont hate meh!

Sorry, no love from me. I can't stand a cheapie ecomomie car, I'd rather sacrifice some MPG for some FPG. (Fun Per Gallon)

But as I've said, it is more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow.

Or, you can do like I did and buy another Z28 for your DD....
