    in pursuit of happiness

    I am looking for a normal daily car that as fun as mx5... need a decent size boot, bit of power, 4 doors and rwd

    NO EVO!!! I like to drive with a bit of rawness.... none of these electronic cheating gadgets....


    The first choice I can think of is BA F6..... but they still drive like a boat lol

    Any suggestions guys?

    either IS200 as wu' mentioned or a Bimmer 320 or something. Other than that, i doubt you can find a RWD 4Dr daily. But then again, you want a daily hence all these requirement is......really not a priority Get a Yaris and spend the rest on your MX5 yo!

    Hang on....how much do you want to spend?

    If your budget is BA F6, then surely you can afford second hand RX8 and Beemer 130i??
