Fun Cars <10K

[Darmanin10]

Want something smaller, lighter, manual and more fun to drive than the Falcon.

Max 10k to play with. The catch, it needs to be p plate legal.

Was thinking DC2 Vti-r. Any suggestions for something better or what you would do

Do you plan on keeping the car after you have your full licence? If not maybe it is better to wait. Then you can get a turbo car and the world is your oyster. Turbocharged power is as good as sex. The advantage of turbocharging is that the pleasure comes whenever you put your foot down. The result of putting your foot down with a woman is a kick in the ballsack.

Definetly want something reliable, therfore newer. Need a non turbo as im still a bit under 2 yrs off fulls and my bro will take this car when i move onto a turbo skyline.

Basically something light and fun. Prefer coupe as well

MX5 is perfect besides the 2 seater hassle.

Is the Beemer myth real or not? As too the expansive parts and such?

DC2R or DC5R? Both are amazing cars.

Mazda Roadser, I went this path loved every second of it !! Actually miss it so much I am thinking of buying my old one back! 0.o

[Touge Kyousou]

n/a supra, vtec/engine swapped civics, teggy vti-r, prelude vti-r, 3s-ge sw20 mr2, aw11 mr2 if you can find one, manual mivec fto, silver/blacktop 4a-ge levin/trueno.

That'd be my shortlist.

Or you've got the classic trashed q's silvia etc

[dusbal]

thanks for all the information guys

My 2c, buy a te/tf crossflow 6 powered cortina backed by the single rail borgwarner 4 speed box.... Extractors exhaust inlet manifold Holley decent tires will see a 14 second 1/4 enough to walk alot of stockish turbo imports and older v8s.

Bigger cam solid lifters valve springs port work better clutch minispool 90/10 shocks and say hello to a low 13 second (possible 12 second) p plate "legal" street car.

(There is a guy running in the 11s on an NA [no nitrous, turbo/supercharger] cross flow powered td cortina in qld... http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=ACor769AAoA&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DACor769AAoA&gl=GB)

Sky's the limit with them bro, just watch for chassis rail rust and bad shells

^ lol sounds awesome but would prefer something new.

The MX5 ticks all the boxes besides the 2 seats

Anything close to the MX5 which comes in coupe form?

[r32-25t]

Rx8 but you won't get one for 10
