Yuck, the Charger isn't even offered in MT. It may be fast, but who cares when it's boring to drive?

I'll take the 335 or Evo, thanks.

As much as I love manuals, that car shouldn't be offered with a manual. Fro one it wouldn't sell, and two it's just not the type of car that I could imagine driving with a MT.

I don't think that list is right.

What happened to the STI. That's just one right off th top of my head? Mazdaspeed 6? Both in the price range listed.

The base EVO is starting around $34K. The Buick is hilarious. Old school brute V-8 technology running through the front tires. Pushrod with a 4-speed auto!

I hate the 300C--it has been taken over by the bling bling set.

Price no object: 335i. Price more of a consideration: G35.

Actually, they were banned because they're slower than a Buick.

ha ha... my 94 skylark is faster.

On another note: I wouldn't take any of the top 3.

Speed is not what it's all about. I wouldn't take the BMW due to high repair costs.
