Right, Am in the middle of selling my P1 at present. Trying to make my mind up on what to get next is not going well as it changes every few seconds

With a budget of 15k at the most but would like to spend less, i'm toying with the idea of -
4 door scooby - prob uk spec
2 door type R
Mazxda Rx7
Toyota Supra - Non turbo
Toyota Supra TT

I've decided it must be jap but these are the only ones I've considered so far. Can anyone give me their recommedations / good points bad points(I'm sure mos of you will say scooby though) on what to do or is there another car I should consider?

Any ideas welcomed as I am going round the bend!

Yeah I'm swaying towards the type R more and more. You can pick up a P reg with 35k on the clock for about 11 grand but I really want a v5/6 which is more near to 15 grand.

Going from a P1 to a Supra N/A would be a waste of money IMHO.
In the current market I think you'd get more of a Scoob than you would a Supra TT. The Supra TT is a lovely machine though.
Cheers.

Well there's a 300sx or an older Skyline R33 if you want the Nissan route and Evo 5's are about that sort of cash (though more expensive to run).

I'd prefer the P1 though
