So I've had my Celica for almost a year now, in two weeks it will be a year to be exact. In of itself I like the car, but it's time for something else. I'm wanting something with more power and a better ride. Doing swaps isn't an option and neither is reverting back to the stock suspension, for cost feasibility. So now I'm looking into the possibility of finding something else. Some of the cars I've been considering include: 1986.5-1992 Supra, 92-95 SC300, 91-93 240SX, 90-95 300ZX, 90-92 Camaro/Firebird, 90-95 Mustang. So I was wondering if anyone else have owned these vehicles and had an opinion of them. Or if you can think of others cars that I haven't thought of, I'd love to hear them. Pretty much anything RWD, 2 doors, and pre-OBDII I'd look into getting. I thought about the RX7 but I don't want to deal with rotary, and the Miata and MR2 are too small as I need space for carrying a synthesizer with me for when I got out and play. The Supra, SC300, and 300ZX are towards the bottom as they can be hard to work on, especially the 300ZX. Gas mileage isn't a concern to me anymore, but performance and comfort are. I'm not asking for it to ride like a Cadillac, but I do want something that'll ride better on these atrocities they call roads. So any help would be appreciated. I plan on trying to find an example of each of these cars and test driving them before completely committing to selling the Celica.

Knew the SC300 would probably be good, it is a Lexus after all. I know the MKIII Supra is good, since that was my first car. I hear the 300ZX is supposed to be fairly comfortable too. Only ones that concerned me comfort wise were the 240SX and the domestics. I've been in the 4th gen Mustang before, and I remember it was decent. My dad had a 96 Z28 and it was ok too. Though I know that probably means nothing in regards to the third gen versions. Was kind of leaning towards something with a V8, purely for the exhaust sound. That and I know OHV engines like the back of my hand. Though obviously the others are still in consideration.
Found a 93 240SX locally, but it was rear ended and driven off the median. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed
