MASantos, our old hot rods circulate because they passed safety standards as new vehicles - that is, they met the standards of the 60s and 70s, and are not re-tested with each change in safety regulations. Now, certainly without significant changes to the design of the chassis, I don't think...

*jaw drops* *drools* That would be the perfect starting platform for an autocross beast! I would LOVE one!

Sorry dude, but you're out of luck. Unlocking software is not going to help you. AT&T's network (and consequently your iPhone) runs on the GSM standard, Verizon is CDMA. Your best bet is to switch to AT&T to use the iPhone, or to sell the iPhone.

Acura TL, perhaps?

Good choices, I think. A couple of suggestions: 1. You won't find a WRX within your budget. They're just too new (oldest model is something like a 2003), it won't happen. 2. I would be very very careful with that modded Prelude. Because of the extensive work that he's done (i.e. cams...

I wouldn't be recommending a swapped anything for the OP for a couple reasons - for one, reliability will be a complete unknown as you have no idea of the engine's history pre-swap (not to mention the inevitable swap gremlins and shortcuts taken during the swap...), and secondly, forget about...

I owned an old Audi quattro-equipped car once. It was a great car - but heaven help you if you have to make major repairs! And when we're talking the vintage the car would be to fit in the OP's price range, boy are we talking about major repairs...

Wow, hell hath no fury... As much as I'd love a Lambo at that price, I wouldn't be able to afford the oil changes, let alone a more major repair...

The fact that you live in Maine complicates things a little bit - under other circumstances, the Miata would be a natural choice, but an RWD soft-top convertible in the wintertime in Maine would not be so great. I'd be looking at simpler sporty cars with good aftermarket support and cheap parts...

When you're talking about used cars at that age, maintenance history takes much more importance than initial reliability. Take the car that has the more complete maintenance record. Also, I'm thinking it might be cheaper just to have the exhaust fixed on your current car...

Wow, based on the responses in this thread about Time and Tide, I guess that one wasn't as much under the radar as I originally thought. Whoever mentioned Oldboy is right - what a disturbing movie...but despite the disturbing plot (or maybe because of it?) it was a gripping movie...
