If you´re looking to spend a little bit more money on a brand new car that is going to be both stylish and sporty, than you may think about looking into buying either a brand new Chrysler Crossfire, an Audi TT, or a BMW 135I. These three cars are all known to be incredibly stylish and unique in their designs. Although all three of these cars cost around 35,000 dollars, they do have some disadvantages that are worth looking into if you´re seriously considering buying one of these cars.
The Chrysler Crossfire is offered either as a two seat coupe or a roadster and the exterior design will always turn heads. Although the exterior of this car is definitely above average and incredibly unique, the interior is known to be less than average for it´s class.

If you´re looking for something that is going to have it all- stylish exterior, comfortable interior, great ride- than this may not be the car for you.
The Audi TT was a pioneer in it´s class when it was first released in the mid 90´s. The car is still very popular today. Audi Haynes Repair Manual
This is only offered as a two seat coupe so if you´re someone that needs that back seat, this isn´t the luxury car for you. This car has plenty of power and although the steering is not the best in it´s class, it´s still ok. The interior of this car is sleek and stylish and is definitely a lot more comfortable than the Chrysler Crossfire. This car may seem to have it all- looks, a great interior, speed, average handling- and it may be the right car for you.
The BMW 135I is one of the most affordable options for a BMW. This car is offered as either a coupe or a convertible. BMW Service Manual
This car is known for it´s great performance, it´s more than sufficient power, and it´s sleek exterior design. However, if you´re looking for something that is going to give you a smooth car, it´s best that you steer away from the BMW 135I, as it is known to have a bumpy ride. Other than the bumpy ride complaints, this car seems to have it all!

So, you think you know your cars now, do you? Well, think about this to be a test of your understanding of Pontiac history. 21 Pontiacs are featured here : some are current models while others are truly classic in all senses of the word, all the way back to the early 1960s.
6000 – Full sized [or almost] front wheel drive sedan of the 1980s.
Aztec – hideous is as ugly does. This crossover vehicle abashed the Pontiac fleet for two years during the early 00s.
Bonneville – Full sized Pontiac sedan excitement stood down in 2005 after more than 40 years of service. Part of GM’s huge restructuring and retiring of top model names.
Catalina – This model hearkens back to the mid 60s when 2 door hard tops dominated the day. Discontinued during the late 70s during GM’s’down sizing’ shell game days.
Fiero – Mid-engine sport two-seater built for Pontiac in the go-go 80s. GM reached into their parts bin and took out Chevette and other components to form this tiny roadster.
Firebird – It goes without saying this’pony’ car is sorely missed. The good news is that it could be back when the 2009 model year rolls around.
Firefly – Twin to the Geo Metro, the Firefly was Pontiac’s 3 cylinder captive import of the late eighties to mid nineties.
G6 – Current compact model in Pontiac’s arms depot available in rakish coupe or sporty sedan.
Grand Am — With its 1973 debut, the Grand Am quickly became the division’s mid-range performance automobile. Retired in 2005 with a number of other Pontiac model names.
Grand Prix – concealed tail lights and a concave rear window marked the Grand Prix’s 1963 debut. The car has survived GM’s model name shake out and today’s car is a medium sized, front wheel drive sports sedan.
GTO – Introduced in 1967, the GTO was a real coupe turned sports automobile. Eliminated in the 1970s, the GTO is back thanks to GM’s Australian division, Holden. Rear wheel drive and a large V8 too.
LeMans – Originally a tempest model, the LeMans became its own model once the tempest name was retired in the 1970s. Stood down in the mid 1990s after an inexpensive Korean car was permitted to carry its name. Sheesh!
Montana — A minivan for Pontiac, if not for the ages.
Parisienne – in the 1980s Pontiac needed a version of the Chevrolet Caprice. This full sized, rear wheel drive sedan filled up the bill.
Phoenix – Part of GM’s’X cars’ of compact import fighting vehicles introduced during 1979 as a 1980 model.
Sunbird – nothing except a rebadged Chevy Cavalier.
Sunfire – Compact coupe quit in 2005 as a part of, you guessed, GM’s model restructuring.
Sunrunner – nothing apart from a rebadged Geo/Chevy Tracker.
Tempest – From the early sixties until the early seventies, the term’muscle car’ befit this hot coupe. Especially nice as a convertible!
Trans Sport – hideous looking minivan that debuted in the early 1990s. Mercifully replaced years on by the Montana.
Vibe – A now produced compact 5 door sport wagon ; cousin to the Toyota Matrix.
So, there you have it. At least another half dozen models were left out from this period of time plus many models that dated right back to the division’s founding as an element of the Oakland vehicle Company in 1926. Pontiac excitementhave you caught it yet?
