get a civic and call it a day. You can find so many at around $5000 or less, then just take the rest and dump into mods. Talking about cheap parts as well, honda is pretty much the most interchangable parts car I have ever heard of.

Can you put together a coherent sentence without the use of letters for words (to/2) and actually spell something out (bimma/BMW)?

*Edit- Just noticed you hate hondas.

Well.... take 99 Eclipse gs off of the list and replace it with gsx. You can get a low mileage one in very good condition and have money left over.

You couldn't buy the drivetrain out of a Supra for 15k buddy.

Having said that.

What do you want to do with the car.

Drift
1/4 mile car (if so, what goals; 10.'s, 11.'s etc...)
Auto x/ road course.

Will you have something else to drive during "down time" ...

These are questions you need to ask yourself before you go jumping into a car.

Mine were... I wanted a bit different... handling, plenty of power ,and consistent. Somehow I got a WRX wagon out of that... (with a dog box and 2.5/GT35r of course).
