GTI or a R32.. new or used.
Coupe with stick... Old R32 has a incredible sound and coems in stock, has AWD and is just alot of fun to driver everyday! the seats are awesome and the steering is actually very good. The GTI used older body might be cheaper, but still alot fun to drive in the coupe/stick config! Both are in a pretty decent price range for a DD.... |

92 honda accord is my beater. 4 cyl and 4 door, awesome on mpg, comfortable, and practical, and a big trunk, and most importantly, reliable. |

Eh, don't sell it. Grad school will be over before you know it and you will be making some decent money. The money you would have "banked" will be trivial at that point and you would have had a great time through out college enjoying your ride.

A true beater? E30 325e. Good gas mileage, fun to throw around, don't have to worry if it gets dinged/dented/scraped.

wow, to me beater is a car less than $5k. the word "beater" kind of implies "a car you can beat the shit out of and not care"... all you guys are throwing out $30k cars, idk about you, even if i could afford a car like that for a "beater", i would still be pissed if it ever got dinged and i def wouldn't treat a car that much like a beater...

Yea, the more I think about it, the more I start to feel that life is too short to drive a boring car. I drove a legit beater ( a busted ass Mitsu Montero Sport ) for a few months while my 335 was on order, and I hated life. Thats why I think Im going to end up with an M coupe.

I currently sport an RSX Type s. It's fun, quick, and comfortable and I easily get 28 MPG. Mine is an 06', but I betg you could find an 02-03 for really cheap.
