I would add all the RWD turbo Volvos to the list, not just the 740. They can all be had for less than any car on this list, they can be tuned quite easily to make more than 200whp and the stock internals can handle up to 300whp depending on the specific engine. They are lighter than many cars on this list and they actually have a big aftermarket in Europe so you can find mods easily etc etc
@willriley1619 2 жыл бұрын
Volvos are great. The possibilities are endless with them. I want to swap in a an older T5 the 2.3 5cylinder turbo into a Volvo S90 and use a either a BMW transmission or a Supra transmission since it already has an Aisin in it shouldn't be too hard to make something work

V8 Fox Bodies are not cheap otherwise.

so what do you guys think of a fourth gen F-body(1998-2002)? LS1, 3400lbs, 325 horsepower with tons of mods protential. we have had a '98 Firebird formula with 600 horsepower(because it spent most of its life as a drag car) for 17 years now. The suspension is now set up for autocross but isn't that the old drift car ideal, drag car in the back and autocross up front? (btw, it handles like its on rails and we've brought the weight down to around 3000lbs so dont even with the weight jokes lol)
