Hed never understand a starlets charm

you shouldnt have any trouble finding one in good condition for chump change
>>16685552
Actually saw one of those for sale a while back and wanted it so bad, but the guy wanted three grand and he wasn't budging, plus it had a pretty large oil spot under it.

A lot more older corollas are similar to the ae86 and are easily swapable
I got mine for $200 and fixed the everything. About $1300 into it total but fuck it's like brand new.
>>16685307
if you remove the 80s styling
the miata is the best you will get.

those things are trash

Sadly not many. Only Starquests had a cult following to survive a bit more. I wish there were more FR Lancers

So are AE86. What's your point?
ib miata / fc are better arguments. Same guy, right? Go to bed kid.
>>16686675
Ae86 is far better
>same guy?
Huh?
>>16686675
s12 is cheap but the vast majority of them are the shit models

the average models are like a pigfat ae86
>>16686697
>they pretty much dont exist
Because none of them made it past 100k miles
AE86s are obtainable, however they're not worth the price they go for.
>>16686746
>AE86s are obtainable, however they're not worth the price they go for.
Given the only thing that determines somethings worth is how much the market will pay for it.......they can quite literally only be worth the price they go for.
>>16686759
Found the 86 owner.
>>16686769
Fuck no, i'd never pay 10k for a clapped out Toyota Corolla.

Mitsubishi Starion
Nothing is closer than a third gen Celica
>Small sporty Toyota from same era
>Still pretty light. The supra isn't similar, it's 3,000 lbs and more of a grand tourer. The AE86 is the lightweight high-revving car and the Celica is in the middle. They weigh about 2,700 for a GT-S and about 150lbs lighter for a non-GT-S (GT-S had IRS among other things)
>RWD
>Not commonly used as project cars, it's not hard to find an unmodified one unlike the AE86
>Inline-4 engines. Could even be had with a 4A-GE depending on where you're from.
>Definitely has 80s styling, it's even more 80s than the AE86.
>>16686845
AE86s are wildly expensive in Japan as well. Check this shit out
These all sold recently at auction, and they all are "no claim" auctions or have accident damage. Prices are in USD.

>Starion/Conquest not unobtainable
Where the fuck do you people live where Starions aren't unobtainable? I've searched Michigan, Ohio and Indiana and couldn't find a single one on Craigslist.
No one would care about the ae86 in Europe now if it wasnt for initial D first, and then drift videos that came along with high speed internet.
There really are enough small/cheap and fun cars here to do without importing these useless buckets of rust with a sky high price tag. Any old RWD european car will be fun and cheap to drive.
>>16686935
I'll raise you this

>>16686942
have you tried searching for a conquest? i find them much more available.
>>16686965
The second I said that I went to search for one and found three near me. I'll admit I'm a bit salty that I couldn't find one for over a year and now that I can't afford and don't need one, I find three...
>>16685315
Weebs haven't turned it into unobtainium but depending on where you live, hipsters and yuppies sure as fuck have.

It's actually very popular car in amateur rallies way before Initial D was a thing because it's lightweight, rwd and easy to work on.

BMW E30
>>16686293
Not a chaser either. Similar chassis to the Cressida, not exactly the same. Cressida is mx83 while chaser/cresta/mark ii is GX/jzx81.
>>16686321
That is a mark ii. They had mark ii gx71, and then continued it with the mark ii blit which is based on the jzx110 chassis
>>16687342
Maybe yuroop
15-35k € and riced out.
>>16686935
How is that ricenigger? It's really well done with tasteful mods
>>16687503
Who cares it's still $16.5k
>>16687514
I know it's overpriced, just wondering how any of the mods except maybe the radio I guess is rice at all
e36 compact, but not sure if you even got those
>>16687514
Would maybe be worth that much if the claimed 100,000km were legitimate, which it definitely isnt

America got them, but only in 318Ti trim.
If you wanted the I6, you went to the sedan or coupe.

Did you guess ever get the mk2 escort?
>>16687342
Way more than it's worth.
>>16686156
This
People are suggesting MR2's and shit which are nothing like the 86
The 86 is a slow car that is crazy fun to drive. If that isn't a Miata then I don't know what is
Z31
Has a nice 80s look
>>16687936
the US didn't get any of fords good cars.
>>16687936
An average mk2 will be as unobtainable as an ae86, any kind of sports model is far more expensive
>>16685315
Or you could 1-up this and go Volvo 340/360
>cheap as chips
>hatchback/sedan, like AE86
>them engine swap options tho
200sx/s12, its like an ae86 with power windows
and a possible v6 if you're lucky, without the d-dugumi tax.
>>16688703
Its also a huge pile of shit
You kids are just posting random 80s rwd cars, most of which are not close style as the AE86...
Honestly, Third gen mustang. Her der it's a v8, settle down though...
It's boxy basic hatch design makes it a good little canyon carver. Just like the AE86, it's super easy to work on and there are a endless supply of parts that fit into it.
I wanna get one of these and slap a tofu decal on it.
>>16686849
Underated post.
This is objectively the right answer.
I would love to build one of these
>>16689373
Its boxy hatch design needs a few chassis tweeks (k members, subframe connectors) before its a canyon carver, but otherwise I agree.

but even those have been fucked over by drift missile idiots.

Yes. Horsepower doesnt dictate how much a car is worth, stupid hick.
>>16687936
escort tax is much worse than tofu tax
>>16686161
What makes you say that?
>>16692617
I didn't say anything about Horsepower.
