My additions which hasn't been already mentioned: Mazdaspeed Miata (the non-Mazdaspeed versions have already been brought up) |
'59 AH Sprite (bugeye)
'59 Morgan +4 '59 Elva Courier & FJ '71 TR6 (Kid you not, I am so old.) |
Besides what's listed
MK1 MR2 (OK, already listed but worth repeating several times) MG Midget Opel GT oh and did I mention the MK1 MR2? |
A few have already been listed but... '86.5 Toyota Supra N/A '89 Toyota MR2 Supercharged '90 Honda CRX Si '91 Mazda RX-7 TurboII '99 Mazda MX-5 Miata '03 Mini Cooper '05 Honda Civic LX '08 Saturn Sky '12 Toyota Camry SE I can honestly say the most fun of the bunch was the '05 Civic. I don't know why, but it was endless grins, endless revs and constant fun in that car. Wasn't anything amazingly fast, but was far the most fun. The MK1 MR2 and CRX run close second and third though.

I did drive a lot of 50's cars though (they were my Dad's DD and a couple of race cars), but most had well above 200HP because they had been modded to some level. His stock '57 Chevy Black "Turbo Fire" V8 was under 200HP (around 160HP I think) though, and I loved that car. He sold right before I could have driven it on the street (I drove it on the back roads in NC). I guess most cars from that era would qualify as <200HP. Never fully forgave him for that. |
I forgot that, in addition to my list, I also had a blast in my aunt's MkI MR2. That was a great little car.

'88 VW Scirocco
'88 Izusu Impulse +LHP '00 Honda Civic EX Coupe '93 Honda Civic Si '06 Mazda 3 Hatch oh... and someone go here and help me: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?p=284327 |
MR2 Spyder
EK hatch with a B16b |
I guess the 08' Si barely counts as it's rated 197hp from the factory, though it wasn't AS fun until it crossed that number in whp (and vtec @ 4k).
|
I've had quite a lot of fun in my girlfriend's Mazda3 actually. It doesn't roll a lot, it's got enough oomph around town, and i love the steering wheel.
My Dad's 71 Cutlass was pretty fun as well. It's always fun to know that at any time you could drop your right foot and vulcanize your tires. |

1987 Toyota Corolla FX16 GTS (owned 5 of them)
1987 Porsche 924S/944 (raced in NASA 944spec) |

FYI, if you ever buy it to track it, make sure to find small track and not long ones. Cuz if there's even a long straight line, expect everyone to beat you. In the corner, it's a lot more blast than Miata... just the straight line... :cry: I was thinking of importing one & swap v6 in there LMAO :lol: |
I always have a blast driving my 09 Civic Si :)
