Friend is looking to spend 18K on a fun car

Any car needs maintenance, and I am using only about a quart per 1200 miles. It's not THAT expensive. Gas is a bitch though.

But seriously - RX-8 handles great, it's womany, and turns heads where ever you go. And they are cheap (especially the 2004 models, because that particular year RX8 are riddled with problems.)

RX8 turns heads everywhere?
 
WRX STI will be a fun car to drive but it is an ugly car IMHO. I don't think it is appealing to women.

My wife likes it. :biggrin:

More accurately, she likes the 5-door version, which looks the same as the new wide body 2011 WRX 5-door. She does not like the sedan versions of either, nor does she like the older versions (maybe 2008 and older? before current STI body style).
 
My votes for a 05-06 GTO, just because a dealer has a sticker on it for $22k doesnt mean its worth anywhere near that, haggling is a lost art imo. Go on ebay and look at the prices for the vehicles. Hell KBB shows private listings for them in my area with 30k-50k miles at 16k private seller.
