Thanks for all the help and advice, however, I think some posters mistook my question.
I am in my twenties - I am not shelling out cash for a super-turbo RWD hyper-sports car here. I'm just looking for something that is nice, incredibly reliable, and fast as hell.
It sounds like the Celica, WRX, and Altima are the best way to go?
If you have any other opinions on what the best low-end sports coupe is, let me know - this is all great advice. Thanks particularly to the posters who provided specific details about the Celica.
