The only 2 I've given any thought about are:

1- A NICE Corrado VR6
2- E46 325ti

I know I'm not going to get the performance of the chromie.

I'm open to other suggestions

Was also thinking about a MK4 Golf Gti 1.8T, E36 328i

Lee is slowly converting to the stanced Vdub skater type it appears :(

E46 6 pot compact IMO, its a plug and play M54B30 conversion 8)

That is a lot of metal for the money, but the missus wouldn't entertain it.

Just had a last drive about in the chromie, it's a sad day :(

I really like that. Looks modern and retro at the same time.....which is weird.

Shame you're ditching the chromie. It looked really nice in the (flesh) metal.
