I would need front wheel drive or 4 wheel drive where I live.

I am torn between a high powered big car Mondeo ST220, Vectra 3.2 GSI, Jag X-Type Octavia VRS or a smaller sportier 'cooler' car but many smaller ones tend to be RWD.

Jag X-Type

Only blackies drive jag x-types.

Just buy a fucking same year ford taurus. Just because it has a jaguar on the hood...does not make it cool or classy. hope this helps

But really if I was in your situation here's what I would do depending on the scenario.

If you plan to buy and keep a car for atleast 7-10 years then buy a used Honda for around $7K and keep the $3 for repairs over the next few years as well as basic maintenance like brakes, oil, new tires, engine/tranny work...etc.

If you plan on driving the car for less than 5 years then go finance or lease a car where your payment is around $300 a month max and then take the rest of the money and make some sort of investment

If you don't know much about cars, get a mechanic that you trust to look it over first.  He'll also know about parts availability and costs.

I was wondering how a jag would be under 10k, but then I saw the steering wheel is on the wrong side.  8)

Ha!

In all honesty I am not a big fan of Jeeps or 4x4's though many of them have excellent performance now instead of just being big lumps!

You mean the one that costs 200k, and already sold out--last yrs...

Plus the fact that the 911 997.5 is about to be replaced...

Or do you mean the GT3 RS 4.0? Your lack of clarification shows you're not to good in the bragging dept.

Gangstalean laying the fucking beatdown yet again!

It is what it is, man...many of those dudes who own those cars don't come off as braggarts. I've engaged some people who'd you never think have those cars in convo, and next thing you'd know he'd either show me a pic of his Ford GT, Lambo, or he'd bring said car around the next day to where I work. It's usually  the old heads who are that way...

That's true... You'd be shocked at who owns what in some towns.
