Car finally got totaled

If you guys dont already know, I was in an accident on April 22nd. Car didnt even have 3g's on it yet. Well, the nightmare ended this past friday when they finally totaled my car. Tons of problems with it, the damage made it up to 28g's (If they would have replaced the trans).

Anyway to get to my point, the insurence cut me a nice big fat check for 32g's . Not sure what car to get tho. I loved my RA but I feel if I get it again it'll be wierd cuz of the accident (Cant explain it). My choices, in my head atleast are the 2011 Mustang Gt with the 5.0, the 2011 VW GTI, or another RA but 2011 instead of 2010. I still havent test drove any of the cars yet so it might be a easy decision in the end, but I still want to see what you guys think.

Iv gone over the pros and cons of all the cars. I just want to see what you guys think. I NEED power, and a good quality interior is a must for me (I cant stand squeaks and rattles.. just drives me insane).

Thanks for any advice in advanced.

Lol if you need power its the 5.0 hands down, and if you need interrior quality its the gti hands down.

Personally, i would go STi.

buy a used evo. . . so much easier to make power w/ fewer mods compared to an STI

You can get a decent used S4 for 32k. Which is quite possibly the best interior out there.

You want power.... go for the torque. Get the 5.0

This is a evo/lancer forum. Do you really expect many people to suggest cars other than an evo lol.

As everyone has said already get an Evo...

Why would you not consider an Evo as a choice of a car rather than an RA again if you now have the funds to do so....
