I'd rather have a slower BMW than a Evo, more gangster, why not get a second hand range rover and put 24's on it :lol:

I'm in agreement with Red_Sxi - if you're really bothered with performance then you ignore fuel economy.

You might be able to find something that offers the best of both worlds, but it's probably lacking in some other area.

The consumption of any car is bad if you are doing 0 - 60 times mate. I wouldn't give a fuck about fuel consumption, i'd get a BMW 3 Series Compact, put some 18's on it, nice subtle kit :cool:

For a grand more you can start looking at second-hand Evos.

Or even make Kindness an offer on the Supra ;)

172 cup can be had brand new OTR for 11.5k if you look hard enough. nothing laos can touch it for that price!

I would go for the 172 cup, although for the money (I'm afraid I don't know the current going price of a 172) I'm sure you could get something better than the Clio.
