Think you've made your own mind up. Get a red LCR

I work for the Mitchel group now eck which is Lexus, Mazda and Skoda and i drive the pretty much all the cars on site at one for or another.
The Mazda is a very well sorted car and look mint in red and black..even the 5 doors look good if that's your bag.Thing is they are a bit bland also but they do move  Interior is nice and the exhaust note is a nice quite rumble.
For 9K??? I'd say the LCR is too slow! I'd say get a P1 but i'm biased but seriously they are in a different dimension the S3's..LCR's...CTR's etc and are worth the extra insurance costs etc.
What about a Z3 M Roadster?? They look mint..are quick as fuk and as long as you get one that's had the Vanos etc done then it will last for years!

How about a 225 TT?
Same engine as the LCR, but Quattro!

Only TT i've driven is an 03 plate 180 and i thought it was horrible  Ctramped cabin..slow..and didn't feel sporty in the slightest
I'm gonna throw RX8 into the mix.

I'm 6'2" and i have plenty of leg and head room.
The 180 would be slow, as they are heavy cars.
But the quattro makes a huge difference, and remapping them to 260 bhp makes them nippy. 0-60: 5.5 and 0-100 in 13.4

Yeah i suppose with Quattro and the 225 it would be better..
With owning an A3 Turbo i thought it would have more of a quality feel like the A3 but to me it felt heavy and clunky Changing gear was a bit of a chore too S3 would be a much better buy IMO..i'd just make it look a bit more special
