As above really.
I've got about £5k to play with, and was looking at buying another FD with a blown engine and havig it rebuilt, but living where I do (Italy), driving a modified or attention seeking car, with UK plates is not a good idea. Its an even worse idea when you don't speak Italian.
So, I am now thinking of buying something that doesn't need to be modified
E36 M3 is an obvious choice for me, but they are al getting on a bit now, and look a bit dated IMHO
Cant afford an M5 or a 911.
There are some AMG things Ive seen I like the look of, but not sure I could live with the auto everyday, especially if you look on google maps at my drive to work (serramazzoni to maranello, awesome road!)
I cant see a downside to owning an RX8?
Imprezas are a bit chavvy
Don't really like Hondas
BMW Mini Cooper S, but the ride will kill my spine on the non-maintained Italian roads
Otherwise I'm stumped
Suggestions please
