Mountain Biking Braintrust - Opinions

OK, so I recently dusted off my old Specialized Rockhopper that I bought way back when in the early 90's and have been riding for the past several weeks.

I had a old Manitou suspension fork on the bike -- honestly, don't remember the model. It bottomed out and now the front tire rubs :mad:

So now I'm faced with a dilemma. Do I buy a new fork... which would probably set me back ~ $200, or do I just pony up a few hundred more and get a whole new bike?

I'm not up to speed on the latest and greatest anymore, but it seems like most of the bikes today offer up a decent front suspension and disc brakes, better components, etc. Thoughts?

BTW -- has anyone actually squeezed a bike in the trunk of a 3 series? I eyeballed it and didn't even try.
