Cars with pop up headlights that aren't gonna break the bank in up keep.

No boy racer just loved the pop up headlight designs from the 90s.

Most reliable car with popups that isn't $20k cause racerboi tax.

Dodge Daytona
Bonus if you can get one of the Turbo models. Later versions got non-popup halogen headlights and a better DOHC 16V turbo engine but it doesn't have the popups of the earlier models.

And its forever rival, the safer, much more comfortable, much more popular, and with a much bigger aftermarket, Pontiac Fiero

The Dodge Daytona and Pontiac Fiero aren't rice-taxed. You can pick them up for under a grand.

My third gen Accord beater has popups and 436k miles, that's pretty reliable right?

Not as fun as the sportier cars and not too easy to find (4th gen and later are really popular, but no popups), but should be substantially cheaper than a special snowflake sporty car.

Know that the cars can have carbs or fuel injection depending on the trim.

They made Preludes with popups too.

>>15278311
Now that's an idea I like. Let me check craig... The racer tax the racer tax oh lawdy.

Not really but a lot of them look like shit or are automatic. Gonna have to dig some more. I thought they were considered special snowflake because expensive to maintain.

The turbo models are both of those things

The non turbo models are cheap and cheap to fix. Literally a Corolla/Camry engine and transmission put at the back of the car.

Fieros are just as fast. safer, less likely to kill you, easier to service/modify, and has enough aftermarket support to make a Honda Civic blush.
>>
>>15278360
This is convincing me more and more I should hunt for an NA when I go looking for one. Sure it won't be any faster than my current civic but at least I"ll be in style.

It will literally be thousands of times easier to find a Pontiac Fiero to fit your needs.

>>15278394
Not really. Fieros are endangered because of the body kits, and plus if he buys a MR2 he won't be driving a Pontiac Fiero

Even with the body kits, it'll definitely be easier to find a Fiero.
They sold tens of thousands more Fieros in the US than they sold, worldwide, of MR2's from 1984-2005.

The prelude suspension is interchangeable with the Accord, so there's that. IIRC, thats what that guy with that hatch did. He used the front strut, steering knuckle, sway bar and wheel hub from a same year Prelude. For some reason I can't fathom, he painted the calipers gold.

The later Fieros are the ones to go for. New features were constantly being added every single model year. And the ever-increasing build quality is a nice bonus as well/
In 1985, the Fiero GT was added, adding a 2.8L V6 to the range. This solved a lot of complaints about the 2.5L 4 cylinder not being powerful enough. As a bonus, the V6 makes a fantastic noise.
In 1986, Pontiac responeded to complaints the car didn't look sporty enough, so GT's now came with the fastback bodywork seen here
>>15278421

1987 added a number of new features and deleted a few. I can't remember off the top of my head, but there were quite a few.

1988 was the last year of the Fiero. 1988 also added 2 new features. One was a new Fiero Formula model. The Formula took the notchback base model Fiero, and stuffed everything from the GT V6 into it. They turned out to be the lightest V6 Fiero's ever made.
The BIG news for 1988 though was the new bespoke suspension. The suspension was COMPLETELY redesigned for 1988. It handled so well, rumors went flying around that pontiac had Lotus do the suspension for the 1988 update. The rumors were not helped by the fact GM actually bought Lotus around this time.
By 1988 GM brass had gotten wind of Pontiac testing a new second generation Fiero, earmarked for a 1990 debut. The second gen Fiero GT V6 prototypes were beating their own Corvettes around the GM testing grounds, which is a big no-no. Nothing was allowed to be faster than the Corvette (that rule wasn't lifted until after the 2010 bailout).

Pic related, the final 1990 Prototype, powered by a prototype 280 HP 3.2L DOHC V6. The V6 eventually went into production (as a 200 HP 3.4L) in the FWD W-body cars from 1991-1997.
