Thanks for the reply guys and that tip about the Integra StangRunner, I don't know those cars well.

84LX89GT,
I share the exact same sentiments as you about everything you said, that's why the Escort is first on my list. However, the Geo is a last resort car. I GOTTA have a teeny bit of power at least! Crap, If I am that desperate that I need 100 mph to the gallon (or whatever, I'll just buy a horse!).

I kinda do want an import b/c I would just like something different, but if it breaks on me, I don't know what I'd do.

The Escort seems just right for me. I have ALWAYS heard good things about that car-- not just good but great. It'd be a bit of a plus too that it's a Ford. I could do much of any repairs if any myself.

Dinomite,
I think I've actually heard bad things about the Probe (although I could be wrong) and I wouldn't be caught dead in a Storm (gotta upkeep my image ), but I forgot about the Prizm. That's another possibility.

82 GT, I never considered the Colt, don't know much about them but wanted to kinda stay away from Dodge. But, I'll make it a possibility since you suggested it.

Thanks all.

ANY MORE SUGGESTIONS???
