    okay, so im in the process of selling my loved Ka8 Acura Legend Coupe, to move on to something more "sport" oriented.

    and i need some suggestions of what to buy afterwards (JDM only of course) like im stuck, i'm currently looking @ a Lexus Sc300 (5speed)


    but yeah, i have a $2,000.00 Budget since im not using my parents as an aid this time (trying to be independent lol)

    so yeah

    cheers:cheers:

    What about a first Generation Integra. White LS Special with painted moldings etc. They can be had for about $500 - $2000.
