Hi I'm new here so hope this is the right place to post this ....

I NEED HELP

I'm looking to replace my current commuter crate (Saab 9-3 1.9 150BHP) with something a damn site less sensible ....

my requirements are

FAST
4 Seats (only two need to be useable so a 2+2 really, rear needed for baby and/or dog)
FAST
Reliable (Able to take big miles without breaking down every day (happy to keep it well serviced)
FAST
15K tops ...

and thats about it a 2 door 4 seater coupe/convertible for 15K thats built better than a TVR .... simple ... (4 door would be fine) I want to be able to tune it hence I'm leaning towards the japs ... (pref less than 50,000 miles)

Mr short list includes so far:
Toyota Supra
Vauhall Monaro
E46 M3 (or 335)
E39 M5
Nissan Skyline
Mazda 8 ... although think its ugly ...

am I missing any worth looking at ??

Thanks thanks thanks and thanks in advance .. been scratching my head for weeks and going round in circles ..

Pants

ps I am right in thinking you can't get a 350Z even an import with rear seats arent I ??
