really dude? a fucking 944/928?

whats that? 180hp?

really dude?

REALLY?

just go with the NSX, Elise or S2000.... should all be round 40,000..

i can get a fucking 944t off cl right now for under 400.... them shits depreciated harder than the Boxsters. and they 6-12000

Bruh... The 944 Turbo S has 250hp (not the 944 Turbo, the Turbo "S"). Plus, Lindsey Racing can get me 300hp at the rear wheels or more if I want.

All those cars u stated are out of ur price range especially if u want it as a track car. The 944 u should be able to find for cheap like jamel said but idk about it being a turbo model;the 928 is gunna rape ur pockets for sure. For 20k ur only gunna be able to be an nsx in not that great condition if ur lucky and i hear everytime u need something fix or some shit its like 1k.

I think u'd be better off at looking at some other cars u can beat up on the track, like a s2000 or something

man... do you.

real talk.

i just dont think that a car where parts are expensive and hard to come by is a smart move.

and aint no way you getting one that still pulls them numbers. not unless it's from a collector.

go with a used Elise.

"I drive a Lotus"

say it. see how it feels...

"I drive a Lotus"

sound good dont it?

IMO, the Esprit looks far better than the Elise. Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar better.

no doubt.

and.... it's a Bond car.

told you, you'd like the way it sounds.

Look at the list again, the Peter Stevens version of the Lotus Esprit is one of my favorite cars of all time. The problem is in maintenance on those things. Clutch, steering rack, and assorted other issues makes owning one not very attractive... But DAMMIT if that thing wouldn't look good at the crib.

I can catch a 928 S4 for around 20K, a GTS might push close to 30K but you never know what you find out there. I've seen NSX's for $20K a lot, and a Lotus Esprit at that price point is definitely doable.

The only sports car I'm seeing from Honda is the NSX. S2000's are everywhere and they're all riced out to hell.

So um....what type of track you talking about? Will this be a street/weekend car too?

 

[Chef_Taylor]

I tell people all the time i have a sports car (03 marauder)

 

[king hassan]

I remember those NSX's them shits were tough back in the day and the Porsche. My homeboy had that Porsche, his pops was pushing mad weight, his sister drove a Vette, and we were in high school at the time

Not a sports car...

 

[rooster_cogburn]

more like a high performance full-size.

or more muscle car than a sports car.

 

[konceptjones]

Forgot one car too.

#5 - C5 Corvette

I know one poster that may not agree with this, but the C5, to me, is the best looking Vette in the last 30 years. I don't care for the C6's hard lines at all and pop-up headlights >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I'd cop one of these, and I'm not really a 'vette fan but I make an exception for the C5. Problem is that there's a shitload of them on the streets right now.

Please don't get one of these. Everyone and their momma has one. Get either that Acura NSX or the Lotus Espirit. What's the most you want to pay for a car?

That's what I was saying: There's a shitload of 'em on the streets. That's my one apprehension to copping one.

 

[wilberdmillz]

@konceptjones Look at some 03/04 Cobras, you can have a real 600hp car for 16-19k. And they handle well too with the IRS. You'd be able to beat 98% of the cars you come across on the street.

 

[Well Got Dam]

might as well get a sportbike
