At a crossroads

Speaking of WRX or STI, how about a Mitsu Evo? I have a Evo IX and love it. IMHO, they are more reliable and handle mods better than the Subi does. You can find an IX or even an early model X in your price range. Problem is, the prices are going up since it looks like they are killing it at the end of this year.

Aren't the trans week especially the 6MT models on the Evo 8/9's?

Actually they are really strong on the 5MTs. The MR 6MT is really weak especially the 6th gear, so a lot of the track guys swap it out to the 5 speed trans.

My beater is a 2001 BMW 530i and I have seen the repair shop more times than I have seen the car itself. Go with the Z and put some snow tires. You'll be fine.

I own a 07 335i and a 10 nismo. Both are twin turbo cars. I would never winter either cars. I live in ohio so we have our fair share of snow. G37X coupe is what your asking for. A 2010 is in your price range. Best of both worlds. The German stuff will brake the bank. My Beemer has been an amazing car to me. Only had to do a water pump. 1200$

I really think i'm going to get the Z, throw some winter tires on it during the winter, and borrow my dad's truck if needed if there is a bad snow storm.

I loved my 350z so much, can't wait to get that type of car again
