Need help with recs for new ride

Hey guys,

In about 6 months to a year I wanna sell the 8 and get a car thats got decent speed, not too expensive, and great on gas mileage. I dont really care if its used or new, as long as it doesnt have problems just because it reached 60,000 miles.

Please tell me your recommendations.

Thanks,

-Phrozt

Sounds like your in the market for a Honda Civic,or a Toyota Prius, perhaps if gas is you major concern.

look at the GTO's they stopped making them in 06 and the price is going down on new 1's left at the dealer. 400 hp 400 tq, rear seat, 20+mpg

i was deciding between a GTO and RX8 i went with the 8 and im happy as hell but i still respect the GTO

Except for the expensive, have you looked at a Corvette? 28 mpg highway!

Mini Cooper S might be another one you could try.
