If I want a light , somewhat reliable, RWD car that has approachable

or AW11

just buy a miata already faggot

why do you want something RWD in the first place anon? I mean at least say you're going to drift it around or something and be honest.

>>16152690
Considering the list of features, yeah. The miata seems like a good choice.

>>16152702
Shut up. keep up the guise that the only cars that are fun are RWD. Keeps the idiots away and the prices lower on the rest of the market.

Yeeeah OP. RWD sure is the best thing ever. No need to look at any of the other godly vehicles that happen to only power the front wheels, or all of them.

Have you checked out 240sx's or mustangs?

>>16152728
I mean, the Prelude and Integra aren't that cheap anymore, and they're FWD.

>>16152740
Compared to the Miata theyre cheaper and faster

>>16152740

what abt probe gt doe

>>16152748
Integra maybe, prelude is understeer into a wall tier.

>>16152752
this with a klze swap which are easy to find, or MX6 or MX3 with the same swap

Honda is the usual go to for FWD, and its sad that you're seeing less and less of unmolested/rust-free examples, but there are other options out there.

I just hate the "FWD sucks!" meme, because there are some amazing performance vehicles out there that happen to be FWD. I really like my MazdaSpeed3, for example.

>>16152758
wat

4th gen Preludes are considered one of the best handlers

Get an FB rx7, they're mostly under 5k still and somewhat miata-like aside from being hardtop, dorito powered,cqnd edgy. The carbed 12a is rather reliable too

I'd say sport and track racing isn't the same as hooning. Typical Prelude is crashed like this: want to hoon it, pick wrong trajectory/speed, don't make the corner and fly off the road. And yet Civic is still a better grip car that many RWD cars due to it's sophisticated suspension.

If its a small affordable hatchback made after 2010 it's an ecofriendly piece of garbage

If your car does not rape the environment it does not deserve to be called a car. At the very least remove the cats.

>>16152690
Most japshit that is any fun has a bad rice tax. 240's and similar are all overpriced. So old American like a Mustang, Camaro, Trans Am, or maybe you could find a Lexus SC if you are lucky but hard to find a good manual 300 at a reasonable price.

BMW E36 or maybe an older C-Class?

>>16152879
I'm 90% sure my 20 year old BMW can do a better 1/4 mile time than your mazdaspeed3. And I can look heterosexual while doing it.

Mother of god, the ignorance in this thread.

To make blanket terms, about a vehicle's drivetrain configuration without considering any other aspects of the vehicle is the pinnacle of idiocy.

That's okay. I don't expect that either of you actually own a vehicle worthy of notation. I'd imagine mostly a set of saddened bench-racers who base their automotive knowledge on Need 4 Speed, and Forza.

>>16152690
MR2

I own both an FWD and an RWD, and they're both equally fun to drive.

To assume RWD is more fun than FWD when most RWD cars simply suck ass due to their 2-ton weight, is blatant ignorance.

Elliot Rodger is unironically a hero. If you actually read anything about the man you'd realize the only reason he did what he did was because he was bullied and rejected his whole life and because he was autistic. The people he killed added nothing of value to the world.

Unless you have an M Series, your shitbox is nowhere as fast. Just because its RWD doesn't make it any better. The MS3 can handle 0.89g on the skidpad. What about your base model 300 series?

It's amazing it doesn't happen more with the 80:20 rule.

MR2
AW11
Mustang
Miata
RX8 that doesn't make compression
Fourth-Gen Camero/Thunderbird that likely runs very poorly

Can't think of many others. It's going to coat you more than 5K alone just to own one of these. You're either going to have to rely on snagging a cheap, reliable Miata that comes along every once in a blue moon or just saving your money and calming your inner speedy-speed boy.

My 7th gen civic si is fucking fun as hell. Any lightweight car with a stick is (though 2700 is on the heavier side). And rwd is just an excuse when you destroy it going through the twisties.

These are some middle school arguing tactics my man, you might want to step it up,

>>16152768

5th gen is overrated and pigfat though.

for under 5k? nah you got options.
Def a 240sx, you might be able to find a sc300 or sc400 2jz and shit.

When I look for cars on craigslist I just put that I want it to either be AWD, or RWD. Manual, and under a certain price.

Unfortunately for this thought, Probe's, MX6's and MX3's are all FWD, transverse mount engine.

Am currently on my eighth Probe.... Have swapped ZE's into two of them. Also have a swapped MX6, although it has sat off the road so long that its not road worthy.

In any case, I love these cars, but they are definitely not RWD. I've seen a few projects where people have converted them, but you're in for a /major/ project.
