I've been driving my '75 2.0 daily to work for the last 12 years or so and have loved it. For those of you familiar with bay area I probably have the perfect 914 commute because I drive from half moon bay to Menlo Park...so its about 12 miles of twisty mountain roads followed by about 12 miles of blasting down the highway. Unfortunately, I'm getting to the point in my career where I need to project a successful "image" and my poor little 914 is just too tired looking...
Sooooo I need a new car...my criteria are 1. Fun 2. Professional 3. Fun 4. under $20k (used) 5. Reliable Drove a tt and had a blast, but haven't driven an s2000 yet. I would love an Elise, but it is just too spendy right now. suggestions? |

Like Tony...I already posted this in the sandbox and I don't want to be a broken record but....the TT. Great car, no doubt...but doesn't perform as well as any of the other sports cars in its class.
and...are you noticing that these guys Wives are driving them! TT = chubby and slow (relatively) but good for image S2000 = less common more pure sports car thats reliable as hell Boxster = self explanatory I absolutely loved mine...and used to destroy TTs at will. 350z would be another fine choice IMHO.
