mk2 Ibiza GTi, 8v or 16v would be quicker to 60, but not top end wise. Can be picked up for around 800-1300 quid
Volvo 850r? http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/classic-volvo-850r/95844089 or else... Richys Accord Type R for sale? Tbh i'm not sure how quick the Calibras are I just thought i'd have a shot in the dark
I tried to bid on this last night as I've been watching it for a few days but he ended the Ebay auction early! 360bhp Saab 9000: http://retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=FSW&action=display&thread=121281&page=1
Something practical, daily driver, at least 4 seats, doesn't need constantly rebuilt.. Very few of the above cars are even geared for 140. Love the 90's old skool
10 seconds!? They are alot quicker than that man, mines does over 60mph in 2nd gear and is quicker both in gear and from a standing start than a ctr, been tried and tested....it is modified though, but even standard they are nowhere near as slow as 10 seconds
Jdm bb4 chassis prelude. 2 wheel steer 197 bhp and lsd box. As said before could be had for under 1k and if your over 30 with lots of chest hair you look awesome in one as you would in a calibre. Medallian man status ftw. Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using Tapatalk
They do need a few mods as in standard form they were marketed as a comfy motorway cruiser...but throw a set of coilovers, lightened flywheel and a few mods to open up that engine and they go rightly. They are easily supercharged too
as said above, 850 R ticks all the boxes.... can be remapped for pennies to circa 300bhp or so. uber practical, strong reliable engines, 90s old...'skool'. Although the thought of doing 140 in something under 2K..... or any calibra... slightly frightens me .
Volvo sounds nice. Something I Can park Next to the v6, a quattro and a clk.. Looks like the mx5 is out the window at this point
a calibra turbo 165mph with f26 6 speed box and 4wd not a rocketship but better than a average v6 lump
You wont find anything quicker in a straight line than a Pulsar Gti-R with the boost turned up for that sort of money!!
