well with only 20K original miles it's a bit pricey, but i like it for the fact that i'll never see another one anywhere near me unless i go way the hell out of my way to find one

got ya.. i'd rather just build a turbo setup for it then do a motor swap anyway though, easier in the long run i'd think, wouldnt have to source out the motor and crap which would probably take forever

Why don't you buy the Cobra and buy an old Civic hatch to turbo

its going to be more than a project. were talking about a 30 year old car, with a company that doesn't even exist anymore and parts that would be hard to find and expensive as hell. vs a car thats 3 years old, and is fast as ***** with a pully change.

plus you wont here
"hows that thing pull when you hit 88mph" everyday.

i've had a 30+ year old car turbo charged on the stock motor although it was built, and managed to find parts for that all over by takeing the time to look

i've looked and parts arent that expensive and are still available, i just dont want a car i can see 50 times a day on my way to work

a 30 year old what? was it a delorean?

You might as well buy a vw Scirocco. it puts out more power and its designed by the same guy giorgetto giugiaro of ital design studios.
