Well i have put my car up for sale (SC400) and am in the process of looking for another car to replace it. If the SC400 goes, ill be driving the van (Sienna.. yea ) for awhile till i get another car.

what im looking for a manual car that is more luxury than sport. Something i can later put air suspension on that will look nice. Dont mind if ts a 4 door. like to have room in the back seat

of course since im still in college and dont have much money and my parents arnt going to pitch in a dime my spending limit is roughly around 10k. under would be nice.

any ideas?

thought about an Sc300.. but iono..

 

Lexus GS400
It's luxury, it's got 4 doors, it's got enough room in the back seats, and it's gangsta.

 

was thinking about that but then again i want a manual car =[

 

Buy a GS300 and buy the supra getrag gearbox and install it yourself.

 

MazdaSpeed3 or MazdaSpeed6.

Best bang for the buck when it comes to getting something sporty. May not be ultra-luxurious, but if you are into modding a car, you can make it as pimp as you'd like...

 

Honestly IMO, I think you are asking for the impossible...

 

I don't think the 2GS ever came in a manual. I'm not sure, but I'm positive.

If you want a manual Lexus sedan, get an early millenium IS.

 

hah thats what i thought... unless i get an Sc300 =/...hermm..

 

what about a Subaru legacy? they're quite nice and luxurious inside and I'm sure you can get one in 5 spd

 

And you could micro-wave popcorn with the engine

 

mmmm soobies..mm boobies.. i mean Subaru's are nice. Would love to own a STI/WRX type tho. sadly i have no idea how to work on boxter type engines. =/

 

Take a look at this:

HERE

Used to be gangsta to drive one .

 

used bmw 3 or 5 series. I'm surprised nobody has brought that up. They come in manuals and they're fun to drive.

With their crap resale, you'd find a good one for under $10k LOL

 

finding a BMW 5-series with a manual gearbox is easy, but the e39 5-series has some known issues that you may or may not want to deal with.

 

Stick to the SC fool
