I was going to be enlisting in the Air National Guard, they were going to give me a $15,000 signing bonus in wich I was going to put down $6-7k on an EVO... I ditched the ANG because they were taking to long and I am re-enlisting with the Army I will be gone in 3-4 weeks. I was tired of waiting, my budget has dropped now however to $10-15k but I'd be more comfortable in the lower end of the scale.

 

i didnt read the whole thread but i have owned a 1995 BMW M3. it was one of my favorite cars, was very reliable. it had 88k on it when i sold it, i got 15,500 out of it, the m3 sells high, and holds value, if u can get an 97 for 13 i would buy it and not look back because that is a great price for it
