whats your price range? if you can't find the 3000gt vr4 look for the dodge stealth vr4.. they have been twin turboed now if i remember correctly.. which in those little cars is amazingly fast.. we have a local 3000gt going for 3..

the 3000gt vr4 are the best way to go..although the 3000gt are nice..id definately save and get a vr4..lots of parts for those cars as well

prices range is 2-3K and il take a look at the dodge sealths but my rents want me to stay away from american cars as they "distrust" the mfor some reason as they have had bad luck with them

I had a 93 non turbo 5 speed for several years.

I loved the car, it hated me. Bought it at 125k or so, supposed to have been just after major service done.(timing belt) Drove good for a bit over a year, then I heard a tick in second gear. went to a local shop, pulled ******, busted tooth on 2nd gear, need new gear. 6 weeks later part is shipped from Japan, get ****** put back togethor. Drive it 3 days, and the timing belt tensioner went, jumped 9 teeth on the timing belt, popped all valves. Rebuilt engine put in it, 4 weeks later I get teh car back, throwing CEL;s New computer, 3 months later it goes.

finally sell the car after 4 months of dealing with it dying in the middle of a drive, towed a couple times, etc.

Great cars, maintenance HAS to be done.

Torque steers like a mother. Crappy factory paint. Blast to drive.

the non turbos are slow as hell

go vr4 or go home.

Still rediculously heavy for a 'sports car.'

I had one.

Handled like a battletank.

Doesn't handle impacts as well as a battletank, though.

they're basically the same car, look a tiny bit different but same powertrain
