where can you get a IS300 for $15000?
you talking used? Not a fair to compare a used Lexus to a new RX-8..BUT
I will always stand by my comment that a Lexus is a much more reliable and hold its resale value far better.

Fair/unfair...that's just the way it stands. Yes, I'm talking used. Because I don't need 0 miles on a Toyota engine for it to last long. So yea, my options are a used Lexus IS300 or a fairly new Rx-8.
I'm leaning toward IS, but still have thoughts of a WRX (Better in the winter). Bah I can't decide...don't have to yet anyways...

im also having thoughts of a wrx. theres a blue one at a local dealer and man i love those cars. when i drove by it today i thought, hmm maybe that could be a possibility. this is strange!
Yea, we think alike
However, have you thought of also going with a Miata + Old, Cheap 93 Suby Impreza route?
I have :P Not sure if my father will allow me to own 3 Cars though ha.

Fun daily driver thats great on gas and can have the top down.
I want to daily drive the FD, but between Gas mileage and the Finicky motor, it kind of makes sense to let the Miata take the beating on rainy days and stupid drives instead.
THEN a Subaru for winter or when I need to take people/music equipment around.
If I could, I'd daily drive a Supercar. (McLaren F1 for example)
