Alright, so I trust the advice of this board a lot, and your all a bunch of car nuts, so here is my deliemna. I've right now got a 93 audi 90. Which is to be honest a fairly nice car, when it runs right. My biggest problem is it's about to click 100K and I've already had a shit load of problems with it, and i'm sure 3 digit's will only secure my trip to something like a new clutch. The other problem is that i'm in the car almost every weekend putting on like 250 miles, and i'm a poor college kid, and premium being $2.30 a gallon, and 20 miles to the gallon just dosn't really cut it. So i'm looking to trade to something differnet that is fun to drive and economical (if that is Possiable). The car that immediatly comes to mind is a 1998-1999 Jetta wolfsburg or GT. Sorta sporty for a sedan and 30 mpg, however i'm not set on that so I thought I would ask, what do you think? Something sporty that get's good milage in this range?

Hey guys thaks for the suggestions! They all sound good. I really wish the Miata was an option, but where I live weather sucks, and I hear the tops leak like a mother, and it will be parked outside, so that's out. We'll see. Anyone with 1995 Jetta and newer experience: what do you think of the 2.0 as a daily driver? Is it just a dog? I drove one and it seamed really ok, but I could see getting used to it, and feeling very slow. Who know's. Love the GTI Idea, but people want to much stinking dough for the GTI! Argh.Keep um coming guys!
