What car would you get for <$15,000
if you are looking for a all season daily driving can't go wrong with a wrx. If you want to mod it, thats a different story. Its expensive to mod. You can get a Eclipse GSX and mod it. S13/14 are always fun. S2K are also great if you don't get any snow where you live.
if you want something cheap and easy to work on dont get a WRX. they are too sensitive and rediculous...if you dont believe me then change a rear sway bar on one, an up-pipe, or even a downpipe is a lil on the difficult side. WRX sound great until after getting your full exhaust done your motor blows because the stock ECU sucks. if you want something that is newer than 2001 idk what to say...but you should get a
kouki S14... and those are anywhere from 12k to 15k so easily falling into your price range
RWD, handle great, easy to work on, very trackable, cheap parts....stock LSD

why dont you get a nissan sentra ser spec v they are nice cars for a dd and dont cost much now i have a turbo one and my evo mr the spec put down 320whp 300wtq on 10 psi take about fun on the highway
Ummm are you talking about JDM S14 Silvias? Cause the USDM "Kouki" S14's 97-98 can be had, IF YOU CAN FIND ONE, anywhere from 5-10k MAX. I bought one 2 years ago, it had the rare leather interior too, for 8g's...beautiful cars with crazy potential, but are really rare. Also a very small amount of them come with LSD, you will be hard pressed to find one with a stock one, most likely it's out from a J30 infiniti or a jdm S14.
Get an old Mustang or Camaro if you want to mod it cheap. Loads of parts, which are cheap and some can make plain silly horsepower. Putting it down is a different story, but it can be really fun.... But if you want a DD, buy a civic and don't do anything silly to it, it'll be good on the gas if you are a student.

Yea I've also thought about an 03-04 rsx-s... I will be modding the car slowly but surely... I've been working on a turbo build on the OZ but I figure the money could be better invested in a car with fewer miles, manual transmission, and that has more potential... As far as gas mileage, if I can pull 20-25 mpg out of it I'll be satisfied, I don't drive that far... It snows here during the winter but it is usually pretty light. Oh, and a big NO on the miata... I'm 6'2" btw....
