Need ideas for a good dependable daily driver with "decent" power, and sporty looks. No rice. $10k upper limit. Go.

Thinking maybe late 90's 3 series.

Maybe I could afford a wrecked XLR, heh.

WRX isn't rice.

It's got that V8 rumble...

...from a flat 4...(?) :scratch:

How about a low-mileage GTP? You might even find an LS4 GTP or an Imapala SS at that price.

I have personally been thinking of getting a Regal GS and modding it up and make it a nice sleeper.

The later models look too "generic", like the grand ams.

I'll pass on the cop cars like impalas, crown vics, etc. heh.

PT Cruiser GT. Hey, it aint rice!

You should be able to get a 5 speed 2003 for less then $10k. 280 hp and 300+ lb/tq is easy with intake and ecu mods.

Maxima looks alright. Seems a little spendy though. I'll do some research.

No preludes. :p
