MR2, AW11 or SW20

Granted, hardtop SW20 NAs, and especially turbos, can fetch a large sum of cash.

lol no even with 3.0 its a slow piece of shit that excels at nothing but highways. Even e90.
Fucking had 3 mr2's do twisties in the night with e90 and e36 and we waited an entire smoke break for them. Even a seat leon with engine being run in outperformed them.
Unless its a M bimmer, they're slow pieces of shit. Maybe for you americans who you only get shitty landbarges they're exciting.

It's not neccessarily a maymay. I'm too tall to fit in a Miata for example. I'll need something a littler larger but still want nothing too heavy.

I'm between 6 foot 2 and 6 foot 3 tall and drive a GT86 and it's comfortable.

I'm also interested in this, from all the searching I've done 240sx seems to be the answer, though unlike the Miata you'll have a hard time finding one in good condition.
>>
>>17745320
Low power RWD is the biggest meme. RWD only matters once you're putting down serious power. If you're not, FWD's disadvantages are pretty much null as long as you set your suspension up right for your car/style/track.
>>
>>17746404
In some cases (mostly amateur rally) FWD has advantages because of shit like Scandinavian flick
>>
If it didnt have to be rwd, then Id say a golf 4 is miles ahead of any miata, but other than that, probably some bmw.

The '80 Fairmont V8 version is rated at 120hp and is weighting 1316kg. There is another version that makes 120hp but only wieghts 1220kg. I don't think it's the best contender for being a drift car.
>>
A GC8 with RWD conversion.
>>
>>17749857
Swap out the engine for a 351W and a T5, bolts right up, is cheap and can be found in most junkyards, and has enough torque to slide the ass end out before modding it
Mustang suspension components swap on to it as well
>>
>>17749857
>V8 making the same than a 1L i3 turbo nowadays

wow
>>
>>17749339
2800~ pounds, 100 hp and 1.9 in my case, and yes, its quick believe it or not, amd if you do an ecu remap, you can get over 120 hp from it.
