If you're only *just* getting out of debt, doesn't that only give you something just above zero for a down payment?
You might try living *without* debt for a while! Just because you can get a loan for a $30k car doesn't mean you "*should*!
What I'd buy if I truly had $30k to spend would be very different from what I'd buy if I only had a few thousand for a downpayment...
I sez: get a used S2000 or Miata and have some fun for a LOT less $$$

What would you guys jump into if you had 30k to spend?!

Bear in mind that with either an NSX or an Elise (especially in the used realm) "readily repairable" damage on your run of the mill car will quickly escalate to totalling either one due to their construction.
