Opinions on a 88' Supra?

Here you go Will, this way you are super fly DTM racer. http://raleigh.craigslist.org/pts/1732019232.html
190E Cosworth ftw, though I have seen it posted up several times so there may be something wrong with it or it could be a scam, but the fact that it is always in the same place makes me think the former and not the latter.

Well I get that it's a rice burner, but I like it, it's a nice little car that can be tracked wayyy cheaper than any bmw.

[xwill112x]

to be blunt, i fucking hate miata's. lol

[619E30]

Some random miata potential pics

[619E30]

Their pretty reliable (so I've heard) and aftermarket parts are cheap and easy to get

They have truck motors.

[xwill112x]

^^ how are they reliability wise?

[619E30]

Get a miata, I picked a clean one up the other day for $300 from my friend, all I had to do was replace the bent valves, runs like a champ

camrys are hard to find 5spd and with less than 150k...

im not saying thats what im limited to, but idk.. my buddy is selling his mazda3 with a mx6klze swap in it..idk.. im just looking for something fun and cheap to drive.

Fun and cheap? That is until the car breaks down. Cheap and reliable should be your choices. a $5000 budget is most likely tapping you out. That's not a personal attack it's just that most people are tapped out purchasing a vehicle. Mark a swapped car off your list. When you go to sell it there will not be any enthusiast like you to whisk it off your driveway for what you would ask. Low miles? could you respond on why it needs to have low miles. My 99 Camry felt broken in at 135k. I started with 65 and ended with 165 in 3 years. I loved that car but dumb ass kids are allowed to drive and get in accidents. My current 07' bought with 40k and still doesn't feel broken in at 71k.

fuck all this. buy an all-trac camry.

OR you could find yourself an early 70's Datsun 510 with an 90's 300ZX V6 TT swap. Cheap and fun to drive.

But that's a whole other forum.

My new neighbor has a 80's 300zx stage 2 all around. Sick as shit car. He wants more then 5k for it tho...

my friends older brother had a late model 300zxTT that made like 500something rwhp, that thing was crazy. the steering was always busy when pinned 1-4 in the 6 speed.
