rusty rust everywhere 200 1986

Well, honestly I am thinkin that this car may be in my possession for another 12-18 months tops...I work on average 75 hours a week and simply don't have the time or inclination to tinker with the rusty brick any more. When the time comes, I will probably jsut part her out to fellow brickboarders, as there are a ton of newish parts to be had....the following are my choices for a replace ment voiced opinions appreciated....

#1 2005 zo6 corvette...(these seem to have universally been purchased by 55 year old WASPs that tired of the stiff ride, cramped space and low seating after 10-15k miles and can be had for 45-60% of their original sticker price) cheapest to insure on this list

#2 2006 Lancer Evo...(Ugly as hell...cheap thrills....high bang for the buck quotent, but has shitty gas mileage and will cost me just over $3000 a year to insure + $1000 a year in tires)

#3 2006 Subaru WRX STI...(Again Ugly as hell...great sound and safety rating...massive body lean in the turns...one of the quickest cars on the road 0-60 after all it is only 1/10th of a sec slower than the 68 Shelby cobra 427!)

#4 2006 Infinity G35 Coupe...(Stunning looks, awsome engine....lousey fuel economy...may prove to be more hat than cowboy but is probably the most livable of the bunch...)
