Really? The down side of C3s is the cost of parts is a bit higher than say like a Fox Body.

Yea, really. I offered him $800.00 and he did hesitate for a second, then said no. It runs and is all there. 350 auto trans. Good project car. With a little work-at least for me- it could be a daily driver.

You're not playing by the rules. Find me a decent 3rd gen RX7 or an LS1 Camaro for $6K.

Just did a search on autotrader for both, anything less than $7K within 200miles, found nothing.

Didn't think so.

He wants to tell everyone that it is a V8 and is therefore faster than any other car on the road, and he wants to drive it past girls and impress them so that they will want to f*ck him. He will also be driving it to school.

I sold my Mr2 Turbo 2 years ago for $2500.00 it was a 12 sec car (huge turbo upgrade) but the Apxi boost controller fail during and street pass and the motor hit over 30 psi and lol it was never the same. Sold it to go back to Mustangs.

Now a days you can get a clean and already blown fox body for $6000.00 just do some research for sure and check the work. thats what I would get anyways.

Very good choice. 6K for a fast track ready car is a steal. But the more I think about this, the more I'm thinking that a 300hp Camaro is already 150hp too fast for my little brother.
