Golf GTI vs MY NEXT NEW CAR

[andreslom]

HI i recently got my first car, is a 2002 golf gti. The cool thing about this car is that the whole engine is new, but the problem is that it has the 2.0 8v, so i cant get really fast on that car. My top speed i've achieved in this car is 210 km\h or 130mph thats great but at 6000 rpms i cant hold that speed for too long. I am going to get a new car, and i dont know which one. I have around 9k and i think my options are a 2000 civic sir (1.6 and 160hp), my other option is a 2002-2004 clio sport (2.0 172hp). Which one you like the most. also you could tell me what other car to get with that money, that should be a "fast car".

Get another GTI. But one with a VR or 1.8T. Chip + 3" TBE = win.

Clio Sport is your best choice.
I'd get one if I didn't have to drive to Mexico to get it

Definitely the Clio is the one to go for.

If you don't need the rear seats the MX-5 could be a good option.

Clio.

I'd go Clio.

As the individualistic bastard, buy a Honda Civic Si/Si-R/Type-R
Not.

Just go and buy a Clio and call it a day. Spend whatever money left on beers to celebrate your new purchase.

if i had to go fwd it'd be a clio or a DC2 ITR.

[Gt1Street]

Out of the two, I'd definatly go with the Clio.

Here are some other options you have that I like:
Toyota Yaris TS
Fiat Punto Abarth
Seat Ibiza FR

Well ty for all the responses and i just want to say that today i saw a 2004 clio sport, it is in great shape and for only 8,700 USD (approximately) i think im going for it, by the way clio's top speed 240 km\h or 149 mph at 7,000 rpm

[andreslom]

I was searching for the fiat punto and the ibiza fr and those are great cars but also over my budget, anyways thanks for the ideas. I hope i buy the car for this week and post some pics

1995 300ZX Twin Turbo. You can find them for roughly 7-10k in good condition, and they're fast as hell.
