A 3 inch BMW replica. It's poorly made, but does the job.

I'm looking to get a bigger car, though. Something I can fit in. Can't decide if I want to get a new car (pretty much for the warranty), or go with something used in the $4-5k range.

What are you looking for in a car? Speed, Comfort, Luxury, Looks, Ease of Modifying?

I have had quite a few in my lifetime. I would like to make a suggestion here. Over the years I have had different taste but it always added up to me wanting to have a cool ride. I would spend a small fortune on mods and maintenance only to watch it be flushed down the toilet on resell. I would suggest buying something cheap that doesn't cost an arm and leg to repair but still has that "cool kid" appeal. Since two of the middle aged men who are on here have the same thing I would suggest buying a Jeep YJ. 1988 is a good model. Real cheap and you can replace anything that goes wrong all by yourself. Learn from our mistakes since you won't listen to your parents.

That is sooo true about the Jeep. My son and I are doing a complete engine/tranny rebuild this winter.  This is the perfect vehicle to learn that on as its really hard to screw it up.

Yup.... I'm looking forward to this spring. Going to be putting the V8 350 in and tossing a ford 9inch on the back. If you want to see some great pics go to http://mycolorado.org shows a lot of the scenic trails here in the rockies.

I would love to put a bigger motor in mine, but I still want to pass emissions.  I have no idea what the state law is regard remotoring.

Hondas do it all the time. I know in Central/North Texas there are emission laws, but south Texas there are none. Lolz... At least not yet.

Even if you swap motors you can pass emissions.
