[farmercal]

Why would anyone need to haul butt? Running moonshine or what?

 

[BriGy86]

maybe..... 😛

but seriously, not somthing that is a complete speed demon, just a car that has good acceleration i spose

 

[zixxer]

Fast
Reliable
Cheap

pick two.

2003 mercury marauder?

 

[NutBucket]

2005 Legacy GT.

 

[Platypus]

Exactly why I got my WRX wagon.

Best of everything I needed for the price, it's been an amazing car so far.

That's as practical as giving free condoms to nuns.

20 MPG all city driving is practical enough for me. Better than my Camaro that got 12-13. It can idle on the freeway and push 30 MPG, and it hauls ass when you want to. Makes sense to me.

 

[dug777]

i suggest a...

Holden Adventura 😉

http://www.holden.com.au/www-holden/action/vehicleentry?vehicleid=22

The LX8 moves plenty quick enuff 🙂


or if you only want 2wd you can just get a 5.7L GenIII V8 2wd wagon (Berlina) for about $50,000...AUD of course 😉

Very practical, and fast 🙂

The vehicle is rated 19/28. It's got two seats, which invalidates any claim to practicality. When somebody generically asks for something practical they are not asking for a two seater. Reason: it's impossible to get any MORE impractical.

Four seats there big shooter. They are listed as a passenger vehicles actually. The Vette only has two though. And don't say they don't count due to lack of leg room, cause my corsica has about the same amount back there, and it's not nearly as fun.

 

[SweetUserName]

I've ridden in the back of a 4th gen Camaro and theres plenty of room for my 6'1" self. Its not all that impractical.

 

[fbrdphreak]

Dunno how much butt you want to haul, but a Sentra Spec-V has 6-speeds & 175HP 2.5L I-4. I hear it gets 25-27mpg city on avg, low 30's highway. Min 21mpg. Not the fastest thing out there, but available for under 20K new. Handles nicely

Also the Neon SRT-4, approx 5.3 0-60; but most ppl think they're ugly 😛

WRX is probly your best bet. Grand Prix's are cool IMO, but won't do much butt hauling unless you get the GTP (supercharged). Also resale on them is horrible, which can be a good thing for you 😛

You can fit by by no means would I say plenty of room. Upshot to the F-body's is that they are hatchback, you can fit all kinds of sh!t into a hatchback

 

[SweetUserName]

Oh I fit, believe you me.
