What's so hard about that decision? They're icons of American history for a reason: you're not going to find a better bang for the buck anywhere

If you hold out til this fall for a 2005 model, you'll get 300 hp from the factory, and a torque arm/panhard bar setup that's supposedly going to handle really well.

If I had to choose between the RX8, 350Z, and WRX, I'd go with the 350Z, although all 3 are drastically overpriced IMHO.

Do some real research before you decide what to go with. I think you'll be surprised at what you find compared to what the word is on the street among a bunch of 20 year olds who have never driven, muchless owned any of the above.
well said, i believe the cobra is a bit more expensive than the WRX though.. the RX8 and 305z are definitely up there with it though

The 350z. Mid thirties and worth it for what you get...a true sports car. I went with the Touring convertible and paid through the nose. Words can't express...if you're looking to invest that much money and the dealers won't let you drive it, I'll let you take her for a spin. She's sex on wheels. Performance, handling, torque, looks, I could go on and on....

Been waiting for that one, but the Elise is just too tiny for me. Handles great, quick acceleration due to weight, but smaller than a Miata!
