Now this is my kinda thread. I've had 2 200sx s13's, not bad, but rear seats might as well not be there. Plus unless you rag the rpm they are gutless. If you get a rice burner thats been tweaked it will blow up. Guaranteed. Look cool though and lot of car for the money.
Old school supra's are ace, but handling leaves a lot to desire. I had a 2nd gen 2.8 celica-supra (and Cougar-rob on here still has one ) which was waaaaaay more fun than the 3.0 non turbo 3rd gen, and the 3.0 turbo 3rd gen (again I had one of each). The 3rd gens are mainly auto in turbo variety (wank) and they were actually designed to be grand sports tourers so handling is awful. The 2.8 celica-supra is much more fun, and there aren't many on the road. Plus all manuals. Added bonus they look like Kitt from knigh rider from the front!
The 2 I would go for are either a rev 2 MR2 sw20 (but its 2 seater), or Vauxhall Carlton GSI. Now don't laugh...... the Carlton may be an ugly beast, but they are cheap, 200bhp, no computer-aided traction control b******s, awesome handling and a right laugh. I had one a few years back, paid ?1500 for it, it never broke, and was one of the most fun cars I've ever owned. 4 doors and plenty of space, and the damn thing goes sideways everywhere. Lotue Carlton looks (if you paint it green) for ford escort money
Or you could always get a E36 328...... saw one go through auction last year for ?800
alot of car for the monies! Nice-ish ones are in the trader for 1500-2000 regularly.
That's my two-penneth.
