300 RWHP is not that fast. Stock LS1 camaros make well over 300 and new Cobras are putting out 390. Not saying you can get one for 10K just stating that that aint that fast. If you need another car you will do much better finding a car that is already put together for speed. Somebody is always needing to sell and for 10K you can get well over 300 RWHP. For 10k I could get my yard tractor into the tens. Why not get a loan and wrench the honda?

That's a pretty generalized (and false) statement.
