keeping the Volvo? go for the Suzuki

getting rid of the Volvo? go for the Miata

keeping teh Volvo
I want the Suzuki, but I'd probably pickup a used one for less than $7k.

The only Suzuki you need is a Samurai...

...with a 'Busa motor in it.

That would be pretty cool, but it would be useless off road. I'd rather put a TDI motor in one.
Anyhoo, you suck for not liking motorcycles.

My roommate owns 3 different CBR600s (a waste if you ask me).  I know a little about them, but I will never ride one.

whoa, just realized that the CBX is the flat-6 bike. I had a landlord with one of those bikes in showroom condition. It was uber sexy

[280Z Turbo]

I change my vote to the Honda CRX.

[2o6]

MR-2. It's still my sig of the week, for approaching three weeks.

BMW F650CS!

In my brain: yes
In the real world: I really enjoy the huge torque and relaxed riding position of a cruiser... That is, until the road gets curvy... so, I want a cruiser that handles like a sport bike.

inline-6
yes, it is sexy.

yes, it is sexy.

Flat-6.  Goldwing.  Now.

F650CSs handle pretty well, I thought.  And they're not really cruisers.

i don't want a bike that weighs more than my car

[MX793]

Ooooh, CBX.  Inline 6 goodness.  My uncle picked up a fully faired one a few years ago that was in decent shape.  I was tempted to buy it off of him.

Although I'd have a hard time taking an old CBX over a MkII MR2 Turbo.

BMW F650CS!

Fail.

[Raza]

Fail.

I like them.

914.  already owned a Miata.

Oh, this is for Nick?

Good choice.

Everything is for me.

[Cookie Monster]

AW11 MR2.

[Rupert]

Good choice.

Everything is for me.

In that case, I motion that a lifted Camry with boggers be added to the list.

[SVT666]

M50...or the MR2

[Vinsanity]

inline-6
yes, it is sexy.

hmm...I'm pretty sure I saw a "flat-6" stamping somewhere on the cylinder head or something. Maybe it was a Valkyrie? All I know is that it was sexy.

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

Any MR2 over all the choices given!

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

You, sir, need to find yourself a nice, slightly used CBR600RR GSXR, mmmkay?

Fixed! 

[Minpin]

wat

[omicron]

AW11 MR2.

Yes.

[ChrisV]

On the Grassroots Motorsports board, the answer is ALWAYS "Miata." One of the best all around sports cars ever made.

But really, in this particular selection, I'd go with the 914. Only one of the listed vehicles NOT depreciating.



A ton of fun even in relatively stock form, especially as you can get a nice 2 liter version in this price range.

I'd love to have another one. A '73-74 2.0 would be perfect.

[Eye of the Tiger]

I'd want the V8 version of the 914

Maybe a Corvette-powered RX-7?
