2008-2012 (8th gen) Honda Accords? The V6 packs plenty of power.

SRT8 jeep. Preferably a 2013 white one. The 2013 in white is my favorite srt8 jeep by far. I really want one.






Or......

CTS-V wagon.

the grand am will probably be sold as is. I highly doubt I can get more money on a part out then for the car as a whole. plus I need parts to replace what I take off.

edit: also I hate going back the wrx because I am 100% not getting one, but they also stopped looking good after 2005, and I didn't think they looked all that great back then. now they look awful, plus the fart exhaust, not for me.
Clarkson is a biased douche bag who always rips on any car not British or an Alfa Romeo, for some reason. He's funny and that's about it.

I bought a GA because neither the wrx or the evo were sold in the US in 2000. And I think the first gen "bug eye" wrx is ugly as hell. But they are tough cars. Exhaust sounds different, but not that bad IMO. And you can get a rotated turbo kit with equal length manifolds for them that totally changes the sound and makes them sound awesome.

But anyway, still not a family car or efficient transportation in any way.

Clarkson said that the distinct sound of the Subie engine means that there is a moron nearby. He's absolutely correct about that.

Should look into a Chevy Cruze. A lot of them come in turbo/manual models. But they also have your basic 4cyl in an auto or manual.

I also like the 2009+ Malibus. Those are a lot of car for the money, pretty sharp as well.
