then a geo should suit you well.

Theyre two doors and very sporty, Although they are not a muscle car! They are small and quick and get great gas mileage!

saab 9-3, its 4 door, but if you really want a 2 door get the convertable, you can pick up a nice 1999-2000 for about 7k

reliability before looks bro. especially as a young guy. get an old acura of some sort. they definately don't require much maintenence, and can zip around pretty nicely

eagle talon, mitsubishi gsx people hate on them because they hear they aren't reliable. truth be told I have one and many people I know have them and have no problems. They are quick, and all wheel drive which is great in winter. If you dont' know what they look like check out the Talonted picture in the art section.
