[quote=sdrealtor]I want fun! I’ve been driving SUV’s for about 20 years and I hate them. I’m sick of them. I’ll keep the one I got cause its paid for but I want something fun in the garage. Something to drive about 5,000 miles a year for the next 10 years that will put a smile on my face on day 1 and on day 3,650. I could care less about trunk. The smaller the better as I dont want to have to carry anyone’s crap in it.[/quote]
There are many more cars that’s also fun to drive than just those 2. What’s your price range and definition of fun? Is it drop top cruising on the 101, is it traction around turn, is it ridiculously fast in straight line, is it all of the above but is also reasonably priced? If the last option is your definition of fun, you might also want to check out the 370Z. 0-60 in ~4.7 sec, 1/4 mile in low 13s, corner at close to 1G, all for 30-40k. I like the old Z4 and wished they would have tossed the 3.0L Turbo in there, but they didn’t. The new Z4 got soft and heavy.
