Default Need opinions from ITR owners!!

ok guys, im looking to get a new car soon. I know it'll kinda be biase going into an itr link and all, but here goes anything:

1) wat do you guys think of the itr
2) wats a good price (or great/bad) price for an itr?
3) wat other cars would you RATHER have in the same price range as the itr?
4) wat cars are better than the ITR? (same price range)
5) ive never ridden in an itr, so is it all that it's crack up to be?
6) wat mods can be done to an itr so it'll go crazy fast? Anybody turboed it? wat are your thoughts? best mods?

7) everyday drive practicality

and finally:

8) used ITR vs used s2k vs. civic hatch w/ motor transplant vs. g35c (financed) vs. evo VIII (financed) vs. sti?? (financed)

THANKS A LOT

Based on these two questions, you'll not want an ITR. If you want something crazy fast after modding, get an STi or Evo VIII.

1- I love it and will have it for many years to come.
2- low price would be 13-15 High price would be 20-25.
3- Honestly, none.
4- Not too many, considering that they are the best FF car in the states right now.
5- Ask "avd 23" about his first ride in my R. I'll leave it at that.
6- There is plenty of stuff to do, yes some have put turbo, but I will stay N/A.

7- Practicality, well kinda,,, I has all the room you would need for most things but to park it somewhere and not worry is another. Theft is a HUGE concern and not to be taken lightly- If you do get an R have a garage & alarm waiting for it. Oh and snow, forget about it Unless you spend $$$ on tires.

8- way different cars to compare, at least for me. That would be left up to you.

Yes.

Don't get an ITR. Maybe get a hybrid hatch. For the same price, you can have a car that will out accelerate, out handle, and attract less attention than an ITR.
