i'd love a s14a sx. i owned a '99 civic vti coupe for a while which was ace. it was a toss up at the time between the civic and a 200, but i couldn't stretch to the extra insurance of the nissan.
'tis time i owned something rwd tbh, so it's definately a strong contender for next car.
if you can afford the insurance, get the 200.
i don't know anything about celicas.

s14 is lovely, interior is ace with leather, engine is strong but not powerful enough in my books!
mate has one and the corsa is so much more fun to drive than the 200, he even said that!
I would look into a big turbo conversion for 2k!
They handle well and look good with some nice rays etc rims and drift kit!

How are nissan for reliability etc,ie would a car with near on 70k give me a headace?? Insurance is 1300 fc,which i think is reasonable enough considering I live in Northern Ireland,25 yo and will be my first policy.
