I want to know what is a good car to buy? Something cheap and can be easily modified. I want to buy an extra car that looks decent, but can be modded to pump out some crazy power. The powertrain doesnt really matter. I want to make this car into a sleek, low, black on black, sleeper.

Any suggestions?

Turbo a Honda B18C1 or C5 if you can find one...

1G DSM (lacking a lil on the looks)

240SX Turbo kits are available

2G RX-7 Turbo

Older 3S (Stealth/3000GT)

Found a Nissan 300ZX TT on Car soup for 7K

New Scion Tc has the option of a Blower, but that's a lil on the higher priced side, less power.

On that note, a Saturn Ion Redline...

Or maybe just drop a down payment on an SRT-4

Evo 8...

The list goes on, a price range would help gauge this better...

Well bid on the 300ZX now, or go find yourself a clean 1g for around 3 grand, and 4 grand should be enough to run a solid 13.

I also know someone with a 3G you can have out right should you assume a loan.. :stick:

What do you consider crazy power. It will take crazy money to make even half decent power on a lot of cars.

For the power, I'm just thinking what car would be a good base to build up on to make alot of power. Something that can be easily tuned to 300+hp would be fine for me.

I'd say a 240sx, but thats just because I like the looks of them.
