Best bang for the buck?

In your opinions, what do say the best bang for the buck is? Say for under $35,000 (imports or smaller cars only)... And would still be big gimpin' like our Protege 5's .

I would have to say WRX, especially now that it's winter time.
Space for four, kick **** engine, suspension, braking, and the sound of turbo spooling up. Can't beat it.

I have to go with him, the WRX is the **** when it comes to all around performance and looks. Id also watch out for the Neon SRT-4.

I agree with the WRX and you can't beat all-wheel drive at this time of year

Audi A4 all the way.

Just under $30K (before tax) for Quattro, HID lights, Winter package, and rear side airbags.

I would take that anyday.

EDIT:

The A4 3.0 w/6-speed and AWD starts at $32K. even better.

Nissan MURANO !!!!!!!!!!! OMG! what a set of wheels

Nissan Murano gets my vote; it looks sooooooooo sweet
... and under the hood: V6 - 3.5L banging out over 240 ponnies
wish I could put my name on the waiting list

Check out the review:
http://www.caranddriver.com/xp/Caran...eywords=Murano

Price tag: around 30k

... nissan.ca has a nice flash promo

I want 1 of these, soooooooooooooo bad.

in my mind...without a doubt.....the Beck 550 Spyder

a real performer.....and a screamer.....if properly tweeked...which is NOT hard to do... you have a meer 6.25 lbs/H.P. the car only weighs 1250 lbs....and a 200 hp motor is a "piece of cake"
