i vote for the EVO!
It seems like everyone turbos their civic, then sells it! Turbo'ed civics dont increase in value, do they?

Any feedback on a new Impreza? How is reliability, any known issues, what type of power they make for different models?

Factory turbo in the WRX (227hp) and, the Impreza WRX STi, 300 hp. I would definately pick the WRX due to it's great reliability, quality design, beautiful and huge interior, lots of space, huge trunk, excellent power, and potential. I can back up many of the other vehicles as well, but I must say the WRX is the best choice there. Have fun.

Rep Power: 0 Those seem pretty nice.
You gain up to 30 hp, and like 30 tq from a new intake, downpipe, and exhaust. damn, not bad. And they are around 20, and a used one is probably not too bad at all. Sporty look, nice performance, nice wheels (17x7 RH's.). hmmmm, this is definately pretty nice, IMO.

This is what they say:
2.0L turbocharged engine
Sports-tuned suspension
17-inch Racing Hart wheels
Tochigi-Fuji limited-slip differential
450-watt Kenwood AM/FM/CD/MP3 audio system
Nice.
This is definately way way near the top of my list, affordable too.

Rep Power: 0 Well, the Mazdaspeed 3 is also on its way too.

I'm personally driving a Mazda 3 hatch myself nowadays since I got rid of the civic, and I can say that the cars come well equipped for less than a similar class car.
If money isn't an issue, probably A4 is my choice.

Rep Power: 0 Hell, get a used WRX. I just got off the phone with my bank and my loan is approved, so Im going to be getting one very shortly.
With under 1k in mods you are pushing 285hp and can hang with a STI, M3, EVO etc...

Rep Power: 0 just traded my honda in for a wrx and loving it! AWD + turbo = awosome ride.
If you don't need awd, test out these:
TSX
RSX
SRT-4
RX-8
Mustang GT
Audi is nice and it's a 2.0t now. My parents Audi broke down at least 3 times a month during the winter though. An used sti or evo is awsome.
personally, i'd go for a Sti or Evo used but if you want new, the other choices are all sweet. The RX-8 has little torque but it's a sweet handler
good luch
