Message on some options I have put together. I am just prospecting now, probably won't do anything about it for 2 years or so.

I have 4 main options.

First Gen RX-7:

240Z:

240SX:

AE86 Corolla:

My criteria are as follows: Initial cost <$2,000, Light weight, redily available parts, RWD. I may try drifting someday, but for right now I'd be looking for a car which handles like it is on rails.

So I'm thinking of pros and cons. Pros: anything pre 1982 (240 & RX-7)I don't need to have emissions equipment to make it street legal. SL is not a priority, as I will probably tow to and from track. Cons: they're old and parts may be hard to find.

I haven't dove too far into this yet, just doing some research.

Here are some links to things I found:

eBay SR20 auction

eBay 240Z auction

eBay first gen RX-7 auction

Paint, looks etc are not important, as I will probably just get a maaco paint job or paint it flat black my self. Just looking to get your opinions. I am now addictied to track driving after doing it once :-)
