    DC2R is my personal choice of your options. True sports car, classic looks, best handling etc. love it. Go Phoenix yellow for once lol
    True sports car = RWD.

    I would personally love a DC5R, it's probably what I'll get when I finish my traineeship. I'll be keeping the EK, though ;P.

    I love the look of the DC5, But are the AUDM R's really that bad?

    And I'm inclined to go with the DC5 'cause I think it's time I stepped up to something a little more modern, especially after driving a '88 & '91 Laser, then the 97' EK. Nothing wrong with the EK, of course, hence why I'll be keeping it

    Depends on what you want to do.

    In terms of power there's not much in it once the EP3 and DC5 get their bolt-ons + tune (if you plan to do this).

    You'll have less exterior options with the EP as opposed to the DC5.
    EP3 has that beautiful engine
    EP3 can be had for pretty cheap nowadays are there are quite a few on the market.
    DC5 interior is a little bit more modern.

    If you're critical of steering feel, the DC5 will win you over because it's got hydraulic steering. Nothing wrong with the EP's though, very accurate, but to some it lacks feedback.

    Also, due to the EP's design, you can't fit very wide wheels + low offset. 17x8 +35 (roughly) or so is probably the widest you can go with no poke without running camber.
    EP3, in my experience. ZERO cop attention. They don't look twice, because it looks like a breadvan :P

    If you're after an EP3, be sure to read the buyer's guide, will take just a few minutes and is very helpful:

    Are you suggesting that the DC2R isn't a true sports car?

    I have noticed this with the EP3 how you somehow feel a little disconnected from the steering feel
