Guys, I need ideas here. I need a RWD or AWD car. Well not need, but really want, for a next project car while I find help, gather extra funds (might not really be an issue), and undergo GT4 conversion or at the worst case scenario, the engine swap.
The exterior is on it's way and I shall have that on soon enough. But aside from that, the real issue of topic. What car to get. Looking for something under $4k and staying away from FWD/FF cars. So far, what I have been seeing out there the choices are Nissan 240sx (I loved my old one), Toyota MR2 (AW or SW), Mazda RX7 FC, Toyota Corolla SR5 or GT-S, Mitsubishi GSX, or there is a 1995 Subaru Impreza I could pick up right now for $1500 assuming it is not automatic and not FWD. What do you suggest? Or is there something else better? I am dying to get another car now, because I don't want to wait until winter break to have my clutch repaired (under warranty, why not?).

Hey darthripley, you would be best mates with one of my mates he has had 4 aw11's. He just loves the 4AGE's. he now has a fxgt corolla with a 4a.
His ones were not in the best condition, noisy and rattly, quite a bit of rust on some of them but boy did they handle. All his were NA and they weren't that slow either. I main thing i don't like about the 2's is the lack of interior space. But if its not a daily driver (sounds like it wont be) and in good nick i would say they are awesome. -------------------- ![]() 1994年 トヨタ 神々しい My Facebook My Bebo QUOTE (loll6g @ Nov 6, 2008 - 5:53 AM) automatics are for lazy ass drivers who jst want there car so that they can look cool |
