Search Craigslist.

I'm always on the hunt for...

Fiat 124 Sport Spider
Fiat 850 Spider
Fiat X1-9
Fiat 500
Lancia Beta coupe
VW Carman Ghia
Porsche 914
Volvo P1800
Toyota Celica
Datsun roadster
Datsun 240z
MGB
Mini Cooper
Triumph TR6
Opel GT

Many others. Lots of cheap little up-and-coming classics out there. :-)

How cheap? 1K? 2K? 5k? 10k?

This is my list.

Nissan 300zx, Z31 and Z31
BMW E30 and E36
Miata
Dodge Stealth and its sister
Nissan 240sx
MR2 all years
Early Toyata Celicas
Alfa Romeo Spider
Alfa Romeo 164 and other Misc

I know theres a few more i'm forgetting, i'll get em later.

Ok I should have been more specific cheap as in 2-3k and must be rwd I would love to build a fd but that's kinda out of the question $$$$wise

Cheap and RWD? Initial cost or lifetime cost? I was going to suggest a Paseo because they are cheap upfront and parts are plentiful.

Cheap upfront cost and high possible hp

Legacy, wrx, ralliart, or g37.

You're not being reasonable here.

1- Price
2- Reliability
3- Speed

Pick two. If no reliability is needed - Porsche? Old RX7? 93-95 3 Series? What kind of racing is this thing going into here?

I saw a fully race prepped Mazda 323 on sale for $1k CDn. Was very tempting.

Miata /

RWD: any Z car you can afford. any 3 series you can afford. any Porsche you can afford. Any miata


FWD: any GTI you can afford. any cooper S you can afford.


AWD: any Quattro Audi TT you can afford. Any WRX/STI you can afford

Definitely a miata. At least that's what i'm planning on picking up as one. Just a great bang for your buck and so much potential.

I think alot of you guys didn't read I said like 2-3k

Are you saying 2-3k MAX? That saying including Car + Parts = 2-3k?

If so, I'd say just buy some cheap car and call it a day. If 2-3k is your vehicle price, there are so many options to choose from. Miata, any sx series, fc rx7, mustang, impreza rs, historic muscle cars. A "Project" car should be something you have to build from the bottom, right?

AW-11 MR2. (I would get an 87+ due to better running gear)

Any Miata...they are a blast.

Something that can be really FUN to drive as well is a compact truck...like an S10 or Frontier etc etc...

I have had 2 first generation MR2s....loved them...miss them...
