Yeah, those cost $19.9k until the dealers realize what a hot item they have and jack the price up to $25k for a base model.

I saw a couple at SEMA.. I like it. It's a lot of car for the $. They are RWD correct? If so, 5 or 6spd/RWD/2.0 turbo/low price point = great recipe.

The coupe is one hot car. I'd roll it for sure.

3.8L+MIVEC+turbo's = less traction than a Supra!

Sure the 2.0 turbo will be easier to mod, up to the point of what the stock engine can handle (how are the 4B11T's doing in the X's?) after that the 3.8 MIGHT be a decent way to go.

Ryan Gates/BlackTrack is making like 470whp (dynojet) or so on his, and he tracks the damn thing. Stock all the way through, cams and all. He was at OC a few weeks ago, I got a ride :)

yup, RWD and I believe a 6-speed. These will sell like hotcakes, and the insurance will be through the roof when people start playing with RWD on the road :)

Sound a lot like the new AE86 that Toyota is rumored to have with a subaru turbo platform, somewhat likely to be the EJ20T and also rumored to cost well under $20k.

I like it. I'd buy one as a daily driver.

And then I'd mod it to the point that it's a pain in the ass and breaks all the time.

And then I'd be pissed.

And then I'd have to buy a daily driver..

Wow, right out of my mouth!!
