I've got what you need... only problem is the price. It's a shade more than you're asking to spend.

How bout the Lotus Elise?? yummmm... fast, small, light, easy to slide. it's RR (or MR I guess)

dude, id love an elise, we just got a dealership in town and i see them driving around all the time and get so envious. the price isnt bad but theyre just a little too raw for what i need. i can only afford to own one car at a time so it has to be able to handle trips to the grocery store and that kind of stuff. bit that is an awesome car for the money.

what about the G35? the new model is bout to come out so you should be able to pick up an 06 for a fair price...plus its torquey too

the g35 is an interesting car. im not a big fan of the sedans styling, but the coupe looks pretty nice in a boy-racery type way. im going to wait for the redesigned coupe to come out next year and see if its competitive with the 335. honestly though, i think the 335 is going to be worth the few extra thousand.

The Chrysler Crossfire is nice, my brother has one and I've driven it plenty of times. Its a great car and extremely fun to drive. A little small inside but its a coupe.

arent all audis awd?

and yeah the weight distribution is far from perfect

damn, i'll be 30 in 2012 and hope to drive a 911 which should also give me 4 seats

Yeah ... I thought the same thing until we had a kid. I get to point to his daycare bill and say, 'there's my Porsche payment'.
