I have about a 10000 budget, and ive been looking at the following, 300zx tt, An eclipse( if i can find one for a bufget), a 1995-2004 mustang gt, A skyline (again if i can find a decent one in budget, A Mazda rx7. Those are a few ive looked at, any opiinions? how are they for speed and performance? what one would you sugest? and any other sugestions on othe cars are apreciated.
what one would be the fastest in a stop light race? what one on turns, and which ones are best for drifting?
Answer
The 300ZX is a wonderful car, but is a huge pain to do work on it.
An Eclipse would be ok, but make sure you have the transmission looked at before buying, they do have transmission problems.
A Mustang wouldn't be so bad, but since you are only going to pay 10K it will probably be high mileage.
If you live in the USA, then Skylines are not sold here. GT-Rs have only been sold in the USA. I've never personally seen a Skyline outside of the USA.
A RX-7, those are pretty old, you could probably buy a RX-8 with that money. The main problem with the RX's is that they are not fuel efficient, not by any means, ans the RX-7 is know for also burning oil, they are truly amazing cars. I just test drove a RX-8 and the handling was just amazing, but the rotary engine was keeping me back from buying it. I personally liked the 9K RPM redline in the RX-8, but again not worth the money.
If I were you, I would also look into a 240SX and really fix it up, those can be made into hella fast cars.
Good luck man

What makes these car brands diffrent from eachother?
CatsForeve
Hi I am working a project about Germany's car brands, and I was wondering: "What makes these car brands different from one and another?" These are the brands that I'm working on:
Audi
Mercedes Benz
BMW
Opel
Volkswagen
Porsche
What makes these car brands different from each other in: Gas Millage Wise, Eco-Friendly Wise, Popular-Wise, and Efficient wise. I don't need to know the prices, of the brands. What makes each and individual of these brands special in their own way? Which one of these car brands do you prefer the most and why? Which one of these brands are the most popular in: Germany, the USA, or World Wide? If you could list the TOP 3 Out of the 6 brands that are given, which 3 would you pick?
Answer
Porsche is obvious. It started out making race cars only, then they made sports cars for production for the next 50+ years until they decided to make the Porsche Cayenne SUV out of nowehere and now the Panamera sedan.
Porsche makes the best German sports cars and some of the best sports cars in the world. Ignition keys are traditionally on the left side of the steering wheel because in the old days, car races started off on foot. The racers ran to their cars, got in, started the car and drove away. With the key on the left side, they were able to use their right hands to shift into 1st gear, saving them 1-2 seconds of time in the start of the race. Also, they typically use a lighter orange color for the interior lights.
Volkswagen. VW was created under order of Adolf Hitler, who wanted a peoples car to be used for everyone and everything including war. Volkswagen translates to peoples car. He ordered Ferdinand Porsche(later to create his own brand Porsche) to design a car that can float in water, is efficient, cheap, reliable, and light weight, therefore the Volkswagen Beetle, or Bug, was born. VW made the Beetle for at least 30 years with virtually an unchanged design, much like Jeep did with the Wrangler. The 1970's made them more popular because of certain cars. The VW Van or bus, which was popular with hippies, and the VW Rabbit and Rabbit GTI(now known as Golf GTI). The Rabbit/Golf came to be known as one of the worlds best selling cars and Europes top selling car in the 2000's. The GTI is considered the original hot hatch. Because of it, cars like the Honda Civic Si, Mazdaspeed 3, Nissan Sentra SE-R, and Lancer Ralliart exist today. During a time of the oil crises, the Rabbit GTI was the solution for muslce cars. Lightweight, nimble handling, small engine, good speed. Today, Volkswagen is one of the most modified cars in the world with the largest fanbase. Most modified Volkswagens are Golfs and Golf GTI's. VW later bought Audi, Lamborghini, Bugatti, Seat, and some of Porsche. At this time, Volkswagen is #2 as the largest car company in the world. In the U.S., they are not as popular. But in Europe and Germany, they are very popular.
BMW uses dark orange interior lights. BMW was a motorcycle company and made smaller cars like the BMW Isetta. Later on, they started getting involved in racing and created more luxurious premium cars and the BMW M division of high performance cars. They are well known for being some of the sportiest luxury cars with their renowned hanlding and steering feel. Every BMW car ever made has the same lima beans front grill, their trademark design. The M division of BMW is what really made them famous.
Audi is well known for the Quattro. The Quattro is the first All Wheel Drive car and the first AWD car used in Rally races. The AWD system was named after the car so now it is called Quattro AWD. Because of Audi, cars like the Subaru Impreza WRX STI and Mitsubishi Lancer Evo exist. Audi is famous for having the best AWD systems and best interiors in terms of ergonomics. Everything is in the right place. All of their cars are luxury cars with engines developed for some performance and speed.
Mercedes Benz. Karl Benz is the founder of Mercedes Benz and the inventor of the gasoline engine. He created the first gas powered car. At that time in the 1800's, cars were powered by steam engines. Ever since then, Mercedes have been cars offered with the latest and newest technology. Being the first German brand and the most luxurious and expensive brand for many years made it a popular well known brand.
I don't know much about Opel except that is it owned by GM, an American company, and that Opel do not sell many cars. They do not sell any cars at all in the U.S. But the Saturn Sky and Pontiac Solstice is a copy of the Opel GT.
For me:
1. Porsche
2. VW
3. Audi
4. BMW
5. Mercedes
6. Opel
