Default What to buy? HELP

Hi guys. I'm looking for a new car and I need your opinoin on what to get. I dont need a super fast car, just something that in stock form can do mid 15's and turbo or all moter can go mid to high 13's. I dont want to rebuild the engine so I want something that can run from 7-10 psi with stock internals. I dont care for looks but it sure doesnt hurt. Im a honda fan but am now looking at other makes too. I don't have much money so i onlt buy an upgrade every now and then. The choices I have are: Integra GSR, Prelude 5th gen, Rsx Type S(current car but in shop since wrecked), 300Zx TT, Accord Coupe V6, 240sx(Maybe an sr20 later), Eclipse Gs-T and Civic Ex. Rank them. Tell me what you think from reliability to easiness of fixing up and other engine gremlins there are. Thanks a lot.

Integra GSR
Prelude 5th gen
Rsx Type S(current car but in shop since wrecked)
300Zx TT
Accord Coupe V6
240sx(Maybe an sr20 later)
Eclipse Gs-T
Civic Ex

This might be the most random list of cars I have ever seen. You have a civic ex and a TT 300ZX in the same list for you "potential cars". Personally, I would say get the GSR (mid 15's stock) and turbo it (mid-high 13's and 8 lbs of boost). Thats exactly what you are looking for.

<--- non-turbo2dr is wishing he never sold his GSR

Maybe an EG with a GSR motor.... That will run 13's all day long... Not super fast but reliable and simple. If you wanna run boost then do internals, it's way more worth it.. Don't do prelude... I hate the H22 motor and that body is really heavy.. GSR would be awesome to build and boost.. All the other cars are gay.. Honda is the ****..
