I know i posted a question before about alternatives to the miata, but i think i should have asked about the 240sx instead.
so are there any alternatives that are pretty much in the same performance category?
they're about 2700lbs and have roughly 150hp and is RWD.
alternatives don't need to be RWD per say..just a good handler and within the same price range as a 240sx at about 5000 dollars.
the reason i dont want a 240sx is because they're all riced out and all the JDM! kids have abused these things trying to drift them.
And i don't want an rx7 because as far as i know it will be a money pit. especially the turbo model. unless you can prove me wrong...
if you can't already tell i'm not looking to drift anything. i honestly think drifting is a joke.
OH! important!! ---> MUST be able to be bought in the USA!
thanks for the answer red. i'll definitely check out the rx7. the only problem is i keep coming across what look like abused ones on craiglist.
also, i don't mind american cars at all. if anything i would prefer them because they're so common, meaning cheaper replacement parts are available. the early 90s late 80s fox body mustang 5.0 really interests me. its just the MPG scares me. hahahha (daily driver)
trust me, i probably know more about japanese cars than you do. i lived there for 6~7 years and was into cars. Japanese people drive their domestics. because they're cheaper for them. so that's why i'm looking for good enough domestics here because they're cheaper for us. you know we spend about 1000 extra on imports than what they're worth?
