Ok i figured since everyone here is car nuts just like me
An since im sure im not the only one thats had 30+ cars lol If you didnt have your celica what would you have bought instead? An i mean what you really would have bought. Not oh id drive a lambo or a viper everyday lol Ok on to thr awnser I probably would of went with 1of3 car An early 90s miata,s13 240sx or rx7 Mainly that what i was looking for rwd when i found the celica on Craigslist i wouldnt trade my celica for any of them but i was really wanting a miata( witch my wife still thinks is funny) Because it was small sporty had desent aftermarket support. I had a 240sx once before an knew i would like it with some work An im still in love with the sound of a rotary motor an the look of he old fc3s lol So thats my list an why i was wanting them what about everyone else -------------------- 95 gt coupe, v6 swap weekend toy

Been looking more into it. Supra, AE86, 240SX, 300ZX, RX7, Miata. Lots of other cars but can't even get lowering springs, much less coil-overs for them. If it were to be a DD it'd be between the Miata, 240SX, or AE86 since their mpg isn't totally abysmal. I wanted a RWD car before I got the Celica, but was wanting something with good mpg. If it's to be a second car, doesn't really matter as far as mpg goes. You know how it is though. Which car has the best potential, which one is the best now, and how does all of this determine the right one to choose. Also take into consideration ease to work on, and expense to maintain. Why can't this be like Gran Turismo and I have all the room and money for all the cars?

Most potential? 240 maybe, but I'd still go for the AE86 or Miata. The former if you has the money, and for f*cking coolness. The latter for a cheap, insanely fun DD. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]
