I've not bought cars because of their interiors. The newer WRX STi is a good example, beautiful car, but for what I was going to do to it, way too fancy. Not my style, utilitarian please.

Why not a car that slots in below the FT86, thinking 2 seat lightweight mid engine, 130hpish, with nothing more special about it. 15,000 to 20,000 sounds about right.
