What sport car would you get for around $10K?

Hey guys I've been driving my dads 335xi and I will need to get a car of my own (I used to have a 2001 330ci but it was in pretty rough condition so we traded it in when my mom got a new car). I will have maybe 10 - 12 thousand dollars max. If you guys were to get a car what would you get. If I were to get the car the soonest I could get it would be the end of the summer because I will be getting money from work. Thanks!

S2000 is pretty legendary for a cheap fun reliable car. A miata could be just a good too. Riding with the top down makes slow cars faster

I would get a 1989 325is thats in great shape and put a few k into it and make it totally bad ass. Then keep it forever. Plus it qualifies for classic car insurance, only 250 bucks a year for me!

If it's going to be your only car. S2000 all the way. Fuck the idea of a used Porsche as a daily. Miatas are cool too.

Not if you consider the condition of the car (cars on their website) ...I personally prefer BMWs.
