the front end on the new WRX is fugly...why they ever lost the round headlights is beyond me.
i'm seriously considering the new Saab 92x...basically its built on a WRX platform, has the same interior but with a much better looking Saab styled front end.

Thanks guys.
Chip, my man, do you know any good used car dealers in Japan? Im not into spending a fortune here, got some other payments to make. Maybe around 500.000 yen or so. I can go up to a million if the car would justify it.

Chip, awesome site, thanks man.
Blackspade, I agree with you, that Porsches looks isn't really appealing.
Basically what I want is something that looks good. I am going to be stuck in the Tokyo traffic anyways, so what I want is the car to look good while in there. Might be shallow perhaps.
Haha, just like the first reply, I want a boy racer.
http://japanusedcar.net/auction/…But actually I've been staring a bit at the Impreza too. Still, looks are pretty much what i am looking for.
Cars are a steal here. Sometimes they nearly give away cars here cause of the Shaken checkups. Pay around 15 dollars for a checkup in the states, but have to pay about 1000 dollars a year here.

Yeah, I saw them yesterday. But they only, erh mainly, carry luxurious cars, right?
- Chip0
yeah, a bit posh they are Peter.
There's another one called Michael Lay motors or something advertised all the time in metropolis. Could try them. I just don't trust the guy in their picture for some reason...:)

Ha. So what are you riding Chip?
