which 5k jap coupe

[mattd]

Now that uni is almost over, i will be able to finaly get rid of the 306 i have and will have 4-5k to spend on its faster replacement.

I haven't just limited myself to just jap cars i just want a quick rwd coupe but for the money theres not much other choice.

I've been thinking of getting a 300zxTT, 200sx or MR2 Turbo

I've manged to get decent quotes on all of these cars (1-1.5k which i don't think is too bad considing i'm 21)

so if you had the choice which one would you go for or are some obvious choices i've missed?

I think the rx7 and supra are still abit out of price range. I like scoobies but round here they seem to have replaced the escort rs as chav chariot of choice.

I did think about a skyline gts untill looked at insurance
HOW MUCH!

I guess it really is between the 200sx and mr2 I've always like the mr2 but the 200sx is the more pratical and more driftable but its a close call and will probably come down to which ones are for sale when I go looking in a month or so

But I always thought the 300 was good bang for buck but a bit lardy but you guys really don't rate it all ?

Driftable- seriously, where are you going to 'drift' it?

I hope to take my next car trackdays whenever I can, either car would make a good trackday car but I'd be able to take the 200 to drifting events aswell
UK drifting is starting to grow and theres plenty of drifting trackdays around now

(plus theres theres plenty of big roundabouts nearby)
