I loved my last car but it was getting too expensive to repair in its last days (~190k miles).
It had 250hp, 258 lb-ft of torque and an average 0-60 of 6.6 second.
Compare that to the new (used) car that I just purchased to replace it: 184hp, 175 lb-ft torque, and an average 0-60 of 7.6 seconds.
It feels like I'm driving a soccer mom's car.

I really want to feel the g's again and I'm wondering if there is a relatively cheap shitbox around $5k USD that could give me that thrill. If not, how are racing sim setups with the current technology? I remember playing Cruisin' World at Circus Pizza back in the late 90's and loving it and I'm sure things have come a long way since then.

What would you guys recommend?

Dang man, that is a really tough spot.

For 5k, you could have an extremely immersed experience for virtual racing all the way up to a chair that has hydraulics installed to help u feel the G's happening in game.

As for a real life experience... shoot. I hope someone else can give a solid answer because I'm not very knowledgeable about older vehicles

Thanks for the response. I was reading up on sim racing games yesterday but my heart is definitely leaning towards getting an older car but I don't know think I'll be able to find anything in that price range so maybe I'll just wait ~10+ years until I have enough money to get a decent second car for fun.

Also, even if I did get a sim racing setup I would still probably stick to driving street cars.

Real life and vidya will never even be close. Hit up the local track and have some fun.

Don't waste your fucking money and time on video games. Take up meth if you want to rot your brain away. A $200 car will be more fun than even a multi million dollar simulator will ever be.

Why fuck a fleshlight when you can fuck the real thing?

Beacuse much like you, I can't fuck a supermodel.

That's what I was thinking too -- the last video game I played was Gran Turismo 4 for about a year after it came out; the ps2 being my last system.

Now the problem is figuring out what car to get.

Buy a $200 shitbox and take it enduro racing, fun per dollar it can't be beat.

What about

?
I really want to feel it when I come out of a corner.

Best bang for your buck would probably be buying a honda and looking up engine swaps for it. You can put a lot of fucking power into all sorts of hondas for pretty damn cheap.

I've seen a few rotted out old SHO's run enduro's, hell there was a v8 jellybean in the last v8 enduro I ran. I had my trusty 300hp northstar to keep me happy, until the inevitable happened.
