Help me choose a car!

Okay, so I see that there are some car guys on this forum and I need a new car. I want something that’s fun to drive, and cheap like less than 15k. Also something that I can mod to squeeze some extra power out of it. Also nothing older than 15 years. Any suggestions?

The Sentinel M-32 is a good one, 148.5 hp, ok torque, all wheel drive 

 

148hp sounds terrible - where is this produced? I’ve never heard of this.

First a car from gta and now a plane, nice. You’re not very tricky triangles.

If you mean the reel lawn mowers, I was thinking about getting one. Do you have any models that you recommend for under $125?

I’m a fun guy. Obviously I love the game of basketball. I mean there’s more questions you have to ask me in order for me to tell you about myself. I'm not just gonna give you a whole spill... I mean, I don't even know where you're sitting at

Eh - if your budget is $15k, buy a Honda Accord with an upgraded engine. They all have V6 options except for the most recent iteration, I believe. 

It won't be particularly fun to drive, but it'll run forever with minimal repairs while you save your money for what you really want. 

$15k used luxury cars are a money trap.

Honda Accords and Toyota Camrys are probably the best cars in that budget

Yeah the Accord V6 coupe is a pretty nice car.
