This would have been the video to slap a Z24 Cavalier in it, you can even get a supercharged one!

if you find a cavalier with the L61 you are golden, even stock, it HAS torque, you dont even need to brake boost to get the wheels spinning and im using the heavy Malibu classic. they are basically a half LS v8 and are bullet proof. the A-series from america~ (240k miles strong too)

I have a colorado with the 3.7l i5 and it’s amazing. The 3.7 is only on the 2007 and up models the ones before it had a 3.5l. There was also a 4cyl option which is likely what most of the cheap ones are. Love the vid and can’t wait for the integra build i want one so badly

Haha true… I‘ll still have to wait 2 more years until I can get a license and a car, but currently my dream car would be something like a coupe, a cheap older slightly sporty car, a small sedan or a cool small car. For example I find cars with at least 100hp minimum like Peugeot 406&407 coupes, Opel Astra G Coupes and older Honda Civics very, very cool even though they‘re old, but I‘m sure it will be hard to convince them to buy me one. Not only because of hp, but also because of maintenance, general price, me going to be a beginner and the age of these cars.

As a college student living in Cali, I feel ur pain when it comes to car prices lmao. Honestly if I were you I’d be looking at an fwd car with lower hp, preferably a Japanese brand like a Honda or Toyota. Don’t get a manual for your first car here cause it will be a nightmare to learn how to drive stick while in stop-n-go traffic. Just go for an automatic and then transition to manual later. I’d recommend either a Toyota Camry, Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, or Honda Accord.

Would I recommend starting with a roller? Hell nah unless you've done a few comprehensive projects in the past and have a decent sized budget. I'm already 3k in, flat broke and still dont have the engine in it yet (I have a k20 for it atleast tho)

Anything reliable, mainly from Japan, will be great options as long as they are old enough. I was fortunate enough to buy a 99 F150 XLT with the 5.4L Triton V8 for 3k from a private owner. It didn't have AC and was fortunate enough to get a deal on getting it working again. Cost me 2k on that but I'm happy. I'm not looking to keep it clean as I plan to turn the back into a camper. I need a vehicle with over a foot of ground clearance because of some flooding and snow in the area. I do plan to make some changes and have changes planned but most I'll do on the outside is rust treatment and stickers. I do want to slap a super on it as that alone adds 100HP. Stock is 260HP so that's a considerable jump. I don't have money for the Triton V10 or any vehicle with it, but I would definitely buy and swap the 5.4L V8 for the V10 and would slap a super on it just to compete with the SRT10, but if I'm going to be honest Viper engines are superior thanks to the hemi design.

I really wonder what this generation of kids thinks of 80s and 90s cars. When I was a student (I graduated in 1997), any Honda was pretty nice, especially second gen Preludes, Efs, or Accords. The CRX was also pretty sweet. These days though, do kids still appreciate these cars? I know cars from the 60s and 70s weren't really that popular unless it was a muscle car. I have a 1962 Nova Sedan and it was a pos.
