Buick Regal with a 3.8 liter V6. Very reliable, plenty of power, decent fuel economy and it's extremely comfortable. FWD though.

I'm gonna have to get some pics of the turbo swap my buddy just did in his 2nd gen N/A. Got a cosmo turbo motor from japan w/a microtek stand alone ecu. Thing should rip. He has a small 13b turbo on it to start with, but once he lays down the cash for a big turbo, it's gonna be all over.Originally posted by TODD 2000 V6 CAMAROI'd go with an RX-7. I had an '83 and loved it. The rotary engine puts out enough power to make them fairly quick and they last a long time, if you take care of them.97 Chevy 'Raro Z28 M6- Ported & Polished LT1 heads,beehives,1.6/1.94 valves, 226/231 custom cam,K&N FIPK, 94-95 BBK shorty's,ORY,Magnaflow Catback,no cats,BMR LCA Relocation Brackets,Lower Control Arms,Adjustable Panhard Bar,Eibach Pro Kit,SPEC Stage 1,Walbro 255 Fuel Pump,30LB Injectors,Pro 5.0,Short stick,MSD 8.5's,NGK TR55's,LT4KM

Well here's my story. My mom was in need of a new car. She needed something very reliable. I don't think I will every own a foreign car but when she asked me what was the most reliable I had 1 answer. Toyota Camry (Lexus ES I think). I know it's not rear wheel drive. I'm not sure why you are bent on a rear wheel drive. Personally I like all wheel drive.
So I took her and she bought it. Yes it was brand new so it's been reliable except the battery just failed. Their service was excellent and got her fixed and gave her ride to and from the shop. I know a guy with a 97 Lexus ES who has had zero problems out of it other than normal stuff.

my dad just picked up a 01 solara v6 5spd. very nice car and i kno he wont get stuck between his work bout an hour away and our house. toyotas are very good cars. if u can get the 4cylinder one even better, then u dont have to do the timing belt. toyota trucks have frame rot issues and the cars, well pretty much minor stuff like a faulty evap sensor2009 Honda Civic EX- the daily beater

I have 2 buddy's that both have mr2's now one finally blew his engine in it around 100k or so another buddy with an mr2 went through 3 or 4 honda engines in his civic. Now his MR2 is constantly breaking thing's. In the past 3 or 4 months he has towed his MR2 enough times that the local towing company knows him by name.1997 Camaro Z28 Pacesetter Long tubes, ORY-Pipe, Accel 30# Injectors, MSD Cap & Rotor, MSD Super Conductor Wires, NGK Irdium TR55IV Plugs, and Borla Catback.

Yes, fellas, we all know that any car will last as long as you take the best of care of it. Sometimes that will mean just being faithful on routine maitenence, or whatever else. Our f-bodies can last just as long as any importOriginally posted by Mark BThats what it really comes down to.
