      JasonC will appreciate this, First brand new car I ever owned was a 1989 Shelby CSX. The dealer had 2 left on the lot in 1990 and I got a smoking deal on trade of my Dodge GLH. These cars were really ahead of their time IMO with the composite wheels and variable nozzle turbo. Only options available on the car were Goodyear Gatorbacks and Recaro seats. My car, #315 of 500, had both!

      Not my picture, but this is what it looked like. This particular car doesnt have the tire option.

      I cant begin to tell you how many mustang owners I embarrassed with this car...

          And just to contribute some more old school Dodge/Shelby FWD goodness to this thread.

            I hate to be the guy that doesn't read the thread but says something anyway, but

            If I had to own a FWD car, I'd get an e30 that was permanently stuck in reverse :P

              ...i've driven a 318i in reverse down a 40mph road for a block (-wrapped out like a MF around 35mph-) and into an arby's parking lot, then through the drivethru, the passenger ordered, the look on the window guy's face when we pulled up to pay/pickup was FUCKING PRICELESS





              sidenote: i almost lost my life in an MK2, no chance in hell will i make that mistake again.

                  Mini's are really nice, but it would have to be a cooper S if new (I would dig any first-gen minis) or a CRX with a swap.

                  FWD sucks massive cock.

                      I'm a fan of the mazdaspeed 3.


                      If we got them here in the states (other than the saturn version) I'd like to try out an Astra VXR.

                              Building one right now. Gonna take a while, I hope to be driving it by the next show season



                              Its a lot of work to shoehorn a VR6 into a 75 rabbit, but the results will be worth it.

                                i would have to say a 92 toyota tercel, and then i would turbo it.


                                oh, wait, i already have one of those, its mad fun to drive, and it outhandles my e30.
