'Exciting' cars for under $20k (3 Viewers)

[OzKo]

So I've considered the advice I received earlier in this thread:
http://community.boredofstudies.org/505/cars-automobiles/310273/hot-hatches-sub-30k-3.html

And I think that I might shy away from spending that much on a car for the time being, considering priorities (looking to save up for an apartment deposit within the next 3 years).

I still have an interest in a new car though and I'm still open to suggestions.

Obviously, I've decreased the limit to $20k or under and it doesn't have to be a hot hatch. That being said, I still prefer handling over performance, and I'm not interested in an Evo/WRX.

Depends how much you're willing to invest in terms of time to fix things up/deal with issues which may arise.

Are you looking new or used?

Would you be able to drive an S15 Turbo on the new power to weight ratio laws whilst your on your P's Zohair?

On the right track.

Not looking for 'hoon' cars.

Golf if pretty good, excellent handing, good interior/exterior great performance...

 

[astroman]

See OP

 

[astroman]

no specific criteria in OP

 

[seremify007]

I see 'exciting' as the criteria. Doesn't necessarily mean awesome acceleration or go-kart handling, but it's implied.

Can't remember if you're on your fulls yet OzKo but how about a Mini Cooper? It seems to have a bit more personality which might be of interest to you, and handles well.

Yep, on full licence.
