lol do you have money for fuel for that rx8?
rotary engines cost alot to maintained and fix.....
nice car but drinks alot of petrol...
So I need a car for college which starts tomo IMO. Looking for a car to buy this week. I was looking around at the used car lots and I found a Mazda rx8 2005-2009 for pretty cheap. My budget is 10-15k
Is this a good car tho? Not really looking for haulin a lot of around so I went the route of a smaller car. Fun to drive, like the suicide door and 6 speed manual.
Never bought a car before tho, checked the blue book value and it seemed fair.

Cool car. gas mileage, though, so if there's any kinda commute to school and back for you (assuming you're still in the D/FW area), you're gonna be bent over regularly at the pump (no pun intended) each week.
rx7 was a of a lot better from what i hear.
Candy apple red VW Beetle, then slap a nice ol' Coexist bumper sticker on it.
evo VIII
Check how much car insurance is gonna run you. Under 25 you're gonna have to pay out the nose, and if you're not paying cash you're gonna have to have comprehensive, collision, and liability insurance. Add to that the sports car premium - even if you have a clean record it's gonna cost you a fortune. If you have tickets or accidents on your rec, it'll be even worse.
tbh thats what i heard, and the college im going to is literally 5 min away. id still do a lot of city driving tho and maybe ill look for something more fuel efficient.
it was really nice though fwiw
im getting a quote right now, it is considered a 4 door car because of the back suicide doors so maybe that'll drop the price down. i do have one accident on my record though so im prob ed
LOL...
Can you get a decent one of them for $15k?
i'd get the most fuel efficient & cheapest ride you can find that you can deal with for the next 5 yrs or so. not worth the trouble to get all fancy when you're just going to be going to school and working your ass off to get out of school.
You should get a v6 Mustang like eveyr college girl gets.
or a lazyboy with a bed pan like fatasses similar to 4>0rings.
nah my bro got a 12 mustang v8, don't wanna jack his tbh
This car interest me but the mpg and premium fuel is a big problem so prob a no
Insurance would be high too, I'm only 17 with a wreck on my record lol
It's hard to pass up something sporty once you start thinking about it non-stop, however do some research on the cars you want and see what their major issues are. There are generally forums for each engine type (know the engine) where you will see the same few issues being discussed over and over.
Whatever you decide, have it looked at by a good auto mechanic before you buy. It would suck to be 15K into a used car only to have a blown head gasket a month later.
Since your limit is so high, consider a new Kia or something like that (warranty).
one of the milfs on this site drives a evo10
imo get an evo8 and above
rx8 is nice, you get chicks easy...then again whats its like to sit idle while the rotary engine continues to drink
Acura, Lexus & Honda. Stay in that zone IMHO.
engine uses premium too
If I were you I'd go with something like a 2007 Honda Accord. Nice cars, reliable and easy to maintain.
I know it's hard when you get fixated and excited, but cars are depreciating assets and terrible wastes of money. They are extremely useful obviously, but you have to be smart. Unless you have enough money not to care, you should buy practical and save money.
05-07 Acura TL
07+ Honda Accord or Civic
Even leasing is a great option if you can swing the monthly. The car will be under warranty and brand new. You can lease a new Jetta for $179 a month for 36 months with $2199 due at signing.
Buying a new Jetta is prob 17,800 after ttl as well.
lol buying asian toy cars. buy a real man's car:
Not much of a truck guy tbh, and it was actually my fam that brought up the rx8 lol. I've been doin research and it is a gas and oil killer just like y'all said. Roughly 58$ for a tank with today's gas prices
May look at something more economical but whatever I'm getting, it's coming tomorrow tbh
water jet pack ftmfw
'PG's got the right idea. You can still get a slick Accord (2-door's are nice) or one of the Acura's and not feel like a chump driving up and down 35 in it while still being cost-efficient.
tbh mazda woulda been a gas wise and insurance wise so i decided to take the economical and practical route and we found a great deal on a 2010 corolla. gets like 28 mpg and i doont have to deal with problems of a rotary engine.
You should get a Lincoln.
