See if you can find a nice SC300 or SC400. Spend the full $10K to get the best example you can find.

Old fucker here. I had pop-ups, and generally glad they're gone. You had to leave them up all winter to keep them from locking up when iced up and stripping out the gears. They generally used crap bulbs / optics from the 1980s, and always seemed to be one of the first things to fail.

I get the nostalgia, but honestly they're more trouble than they're worth on older cars.

Anyway - if you can find a nice one of these go for it. If you want a 4 door the LS400/ LS430s are really nice.

Volvo 240, lets see:
>decent mpg
depends on your definition of decent
>power
fucking kek mate

It's an acquired aesthetic. 850s and 940s are a bit easier to stomach in terms of boxiness if you're not completely sold on the 240's looks

I just used a pic on hand. I know these things have no real power friendo.

Grew up in FL so we had no ice but I grew up with family car having pop ups. Never got to drive it though.

I think the biggest pro and con of pop-up is aesthetics. I wanted Celica because of that feature, but when my cousin bought 1992 Celica, I just get used to them, drove the car few times and I now just don't care about if the car has them or not. If you want pop-ups so badly, I don' think there were many spacious cars with them. Few cars I can think of:
Acura Integra
Mitsubishi Starion
Mazda 929 HB
Subaru XT

Fuck yeah SC and LS are top tier. The SC is the only think I would trade my 95 LS for, if I eventually want to move onto something sportier

You might like the Mk3 Supra or the Mk3 Prelude.
Dont know about mpg though.

>>16459605
People will hate, but those people have never owned one. My vote is Porsche 944. 10k is the perfect budget for an n/a car. You'll spend 7-8k on a nice late car with a full service history and have money on the table for repairs and maintenance.

The mk3 has the worst saftey rating... 1 star.

The mark 2 is better all around. 50/50 weight distribution and weights 980 kg. and it looks dope done up.

It also out-handles the 84 Porsche on the slalom

MK3 supra depends N/A you'll get 18ish, turbo maybe 20 without mods.

Because 4'th gen were driven by exclusively douche bags and the H22A from the 4th/5th gen had cylinder walls made from toilet paper.

Also 3'rd gen were deathtraps..
