Looking to get my first daily rwd car in Canadia. Options are pretty slim for something cheap, unfortunately seems to be much slimmer than Europe. Anyways I've narrowed it down to these options.
-E46 320i/325i (2001+) - mainly worried about repair costs/servicing, lots of them in canada though.
-NA/NB miata with 1.8 - also lots locally. I'm 6'1" though so might not be the most comfortable daily, also not the best in winter.
-Altezza RS200 - would import, parts would be harder to get but also more reliable than Beemer?
-Silvia Q's S14 - also import, decently reliable? Parts shouldn't be too bad to get? But also has more rust problems..
Insurance shouldn't be too bad for any of them, miata would be the best at about $1100 a year, altezza would be the worst at about $1600.
Anyways any opinions/suggestions throw'em at me.
