944 = sexy *** money pit.
93-95 RX7 = super sexy, but kinda pricey.

What about a gen 2 Rx7 turbo. I seen a few of those that look pretty sweet.

Fiero with a Lambo kit....

Riceboys make Hondas embarrassing.

What about the domestic camp?

I know opinions are like ********... but 240SX<sexy.

You could get the ultimate geriatric hot rod....C4 CORVETTE.

Driven a couple. = LAME

Only ones excused from the mid life crisis badge are the ZR1s and the later Calaways. Mmmm. Lotus codeveloped twin cam V8 or twin turbo madness. > poster wants to spend.

'89 Turbo TAs are becoming pretty affordable. Grand National in an f-body.
Mid 12's off the showroom floor with lots of potential. Decent handling in stock form with way more potential with the right parts.

Grand Nattys are sexy as hell but most factory g-bodies handle like *** form the factory.
Lots and lots of upgrades available. = BAD MOTHER ******.

LT! powered cars respond really well to mods. Get an f bomb and GM Performance Parts HOT LT4 kit with a quality exhaust system and have 425+. you could do the same to an Easy Caprisy, or Impala SS, and have a pretty fast car with *** loads of room. A good friend of mine has a 96 Impala SS and it handles surprisingly well for such a big *** car.

Everyone is jocking them but, LS1 powered cars are pretty damn fast. Earlier Z28s and TAs A getting to be very affordable.
98-02 WS6 = sexy *** mullet madness.

Be like everyone else in the domestic camp and get a fox body mustang and a summit catalog.
Yes, I know they are a great cheap and fast platform.

You can buy a brand new 67-68 Camaro coupe or 69 convertible shell for 10 grand. Yes ladies and gents, they have hit kit car status.

My apolagies for the long post ,but being jobless is starting to take its toll.

kain get off the rx7s, from the factory the 1st and 2nd gen rx7s are complete garbage, they dont do anything well.

the 3rd gens are decently fast, handle, and brake decently.

get a 300zx twin turbo, is a fun *** car, intake, full exhaust and a boost controller puts you 12.4 to 13.0 depending on how you drive, then put some 555 cc injectors in it and you'll be in high 11's @ 17psi maxing the stock turbos out. sad part is the injectors cost 1000 dollars and thats the only ones available
