C) buy a an older car, for maybe 15 grand and put 5-7 grand into it to make it as fast and clean. Like a 98ish SC300 or 2000 Audi S4 something

Im looking to buy a new car I am looking at the Pris, What do you think?
It's personal preference.If you have a deep set need to drive something new, and don't mind making payments forever, then lease.
How can I find if a Mercedes Car is stolen, before I buy it?
There are those who think it makes no sense to buy a car because of it's rapid depreciation--I'm not one of them.
Is 61K miles on a 2003 car good? if not what is the avg miles?
I personally try to find cars that are no more than 5yrs old with low mileage, put down as much as I can, then get a 4-5 yr loan. So in your scenario, that's option B.
I would stick to buying and not leasing due to the restrictions of leasing and it is much harder to get out of a leased vehicle. I would buy a used but clean and low mileage G35 Coupe (from the list provided). The G35 and the 350Z are essentially the same vehicle (the G35 is a little heavier and has around 10 bhp less but it is more stylish). The G35 has a backseat as opposed to the 350Z. The G35 Coupe is still a very quick car. If you are looking for a quick stylish car, I'd go with the Infinity. As for the STi and the EVO, I'd stay away from the boy toys (look cheap but are quick). Maybe consider a European car as well (Mercedes SLK, BMW Z4, or Audi TT if your sticking with the small sports cars). But with your provided list, I would choose to buy a used G35 Coupe.
What kind of car should I get (looking for speed and on a budget)?
Buy something cheap and sensible. Cram as much as you can in your 401k. Retire filthy rich at 55 and do as you damn well please for the rest of your life.The answer you are looking for is called BMW 3 Series Coupe.
If you want to lease 2006 335 Coupe
If you want to buy 2003-2004 325ci
If you want to buy old and put some money in it 2002-2003 M3.
I want to buy an SUV or a truck...?
Models might change depending on your budget (325ci-330ci-M3). BMW is the Yuppie car! Similar Infiniti/Lexus/Acura are no matches. (Test Drive and see).
Audi S4 is great but personally do not like the interior of Audi.
WRX STI is a different story, different style of car.
Good luck! If you buy used make sure you have a $2000 - $3000 tolerance just in case or buy an extended warranty.
FYI. BMWs after 2003 have 40000 miles or 4 years WCF Warranty.
New 2007 G35.
