Cars for audio use around 2500, lol

[SPLluminator 10+ year member]

Looking for a budget friendly car for around 2500. I was looking at older S-10s, blazers and explorers. Also looked into a few hatches however im not really sure what hatches get the loudest(other than crx). Any input? Btw, id like to compete in street A. Ive got two 10's and will end up having around 4k when finished.

find a CRX

No way il find a clean one around here for 2500. Not to mention one at the auction im going to.

yeah. Most CRX's are rust buckets. The cleanest CRX i've ever seen was one Janet Jackson was driving in Poetic Justice lol -not that it matters. It was just rust free, nice black.

Got it for 800 not a speck of rust, but I guess back east anything 3 years old probably has rust on it...

wow. Not bad. But its hard to find a car like that at the auction im buying my car from(dealer cost).

I see CRX's for sale all the time for around 1k on craigslist.

Be different, get something unique that no one else has, definatly not a "wow thats loud" factor with CRX's everyone knows they can get loud, get something that will make people want to try. its no fun when everyone competing with a CRX

There are a lot of options, but for 2500 the quality of the car is going to be at stake (obviously). You'll have to get a older car, so high SPL levels will probably rattle quite a bit of shit apart, along with the possibility of an old alt failing.

Well. What you say is true however i can do pretty much anything with a car. I would upgrade alts as well so that isnt an issue. Im liking the really old s-10. The boxy look is sweet IMO.
