Hello all! It's time for a new ride (currently with a 1jz s13) and I want something a little more luxury but faster/better than my ride now. I am a drift head so this is my main type of target going on here, but I am open to anything! I'm thinking maybe even keep my s13 as my daily driver and spend $23k on a project rally car, I currently live in AZ at the moment and there is tons of tracks/events that go on, so this might give you a idea as well. Any suggestions? I have a few in mind, just felt like asking some blades before!
or if you want to go the custom route.. and build some thing up... and have style... then u must pick a galant VR-4 [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFs7i-VVxYo&feature=related]YouTube - Japanese Mitsubishi Galant VR-4 WRC Commercial[/ame] you know u want one
500$ Ford Capri, various hockey gear and bike helmets, and about 5K worth of weed. Trust me, you'll have way more fun.
u guys he wants to build a rally/rallyx car i presume? I know a DSM (1990 awd, 2 grand for a rolling chasis) with the rally coilovers (set up runs about 4grand) have it rebuilt with a new turbo (evoIII 16g would be great for a fast spool), a full exhaust or an 02 dump prefered, new fuel system, and possibly an intercooler upgrade, and you have a great awd car on your hands. people have been doin it for a long time and its a proven platform, but it really takes a rolling chasis up build to do it right. I am sure you could have some1 custom build one to, but then it would probably be out of the price range.

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJ2AcCtKj6U]YouTube - Boost Logic Turbo Supra[/ame] 28k could get you a twin turbo 1993-1998 Toyota Supra with plenty of bolt ons. You have experience with the 1jz, you'll love the 2jz
I'm good on the newer mustangs/350z and not so much for a BMW. Although, I've been thinking about getting a subaru, but those DSM builds are looking pretty gnarly! I've also always had a eye for the supra, but I think I may want it another day in my life! Thank you all for suggestions, keep em' coming if possible!
Get a used '97- '04 Vette. You can find one with full bolt ons, head and cam work for less than $30k. Great handling, good gas mileage, plus they can run 11's all day with the aforementioned modifications. Hell, at $30k, you can probably find one with a power adder. Check out the classified section of LS1tech.com. You can find a 10 second monster WS6 Trans Am for that price too.
Ever consider a GTI? I'm not a fan of V-Dubs but just look at it: Other than the ugly VW badge, this thing is downright sexy. Interior is luxurious, and if Top Gear is to be believed... [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7c0NzOWb23w"]...it's an absolute thrill to drive[/ame] (and this is the review for the old GTI!). Turbocharged engine, 6-speed manual transmission, premium sound with DVD-in-dash standard, leather seats, sexiest stock rims I've ever seen on a car. I mean, what's not to love?
I just got a 2008 bmw 335i coupe and its a beassst. Im in LOVE with it and highly recommend one dude you wont regret it one bit!!
