I like 240s but the drift tax on them is just retarded. All of these 18 year old kids with these shitbox cars that are 7 different colors with missing pieces and a half assed motor install want like $6,000 cause it "would make a great drift car".
Truth be told, I'd be all for getting an S2000. It's a bit more expensive compared to the other options, but good lord they're such great cars to drive.
Miata's are awesome cars, but they just aren't quite what I'd be looking for; close... but not quite there.
I'd also agree on what @
Dave-ROR said. Civics and Integras are also good options. Cheap and can be made quite fast. A lot of people dismiss them though simply cause they're FWD. Then they get passed up by them on the track and wonder wtf happened.
