Right choices for new car , gonna start thinking about it now so wanna get the ball rolling.
If you know good and bad points please tell me 
Main point is to save money but still want a nippy/nice car.
1) JDM ITR
2) Clio Cup
3) BMW M3 (has to be Estoril Blue)
4) EK9 CTR

Can't you have a uk spec ITR  front on those r rank imo
I'd defo have the integra tho, for one the m3 is gonna be expensive to run and service etc.
The Integra is just ace, looks right, handle ace, go very very for a 1.8  the civic is a little to much like everything else i've owned and the clio is a clio

ITR! I personally like the lights from import.
M3 = You look like a twat.
Clio = Its a CLIO!
CTR = your average jo wouldn't even know what it was apart from it being a civic.
ITR = Good FWD handling, good spec, rare!

Id go for the M3 if I could afford to run it 
No the Clio - wouldnt want any french car
ITR - looks good and dont see that many of them around
CTR - Think most civics are ugly so I wouldnt buy one

Nismo would look like a twat. Just couldn't imagine him being all pimping and gansta - out in the west country, driving his m3 
Keep it jap boyo. Personally I'd keep the rex. I still remember convoying somewhere and we all went the wrong way, we all did 3 point turns and turned around - you did a quick donut
It was in the middle of a residential cul-de-sac All these old people with zimmers walking past and kids on thier bikes at the side of the road, watching all these corsa's come down and back out of this road - and then a big black jap beast doing a 180

Thats a phase1 172, not a Cup.
Cup is superb mate, much better build quality than I expected and very very nippy. Mines for sale if your interested:
