i second the vote of cts-v's

[1439/2000]

Cts-vs are slow though. I took one from a 10 mph roll on my old 16g and pulled buses.

They're nice but they're not fast. They sound/look good but in a car that big you need serious bolt ons to go as fast as the other LS/x cars.

Plus who wants to shift a 6 speed in a Caddy like that? XLR yes, CTS-V, no.

Mazdaspeed 3 is underrated and some other obvious choices.

[Bruce Leroy]

[blackshine007]

I think the legacy GT and the Mazdaspeed 6 don't get enough credit. Honda's should be excluded off this list. Everyone and their mothers have one or has done something to it. The Civics are the automotive equivilent of a Chicago whore with an STD. Some are probably nice to look at, but there's always the thought that you're not the only one that has ran through it. Think of it as getting a mechanical STD and you're basicly pointed in the right direction

i love the SE-R Altima. I would take one in a HEART BEAT...if it was RWD, why make the car look RWD (sorta) and keep it FWD.

Miatas

x2 especially the mazdaspeed

[_Christian_]

volvo s60r/v70r, toyota soarer, galant vr4, dodge stealth r/t tt, 89 trans am, mazda 323 gtx, porsche 944 turbo...just a few

[redrumracer]

one other an izuzu amigo. its not the fastest but a completely stock auto and 4x4 ran a 15.4 on the quarter. not bad if you ask me. just make sure its the v6 model and not the i4

EDIT: and that was on all terrian tires

[_Christian_]

^damn. wtf? mine is 16.0 stock. lol

[santacruz77]

lol at amigos. i wish we still had ours it had 360k and we never had to change anything lol. i dont think miatas do, 1st gen crx, vw beetle(old), mazda6, old gtis

i could go on

[santacruz77]

when you said an amigo ran that wat style?

[Capt._Ron]

I am partial to acura legends I have to admit. I even like the 4 doors more. They will probably blow up when this whole vip thing trickles down to the po folks though.

[redrumracer]

it was a 99

[santacruz77]

oo ours was there earlier one

[redrumracer]

yea i royally fuck that one up in an accident tore the whole rear suspension out from under it, put the passenger front tire in the passenger floor board. a turn a 85+a tire blowing out ftl. i know have a couple permanent scars to remind me of my stupidity

[santacruz77]

why is this in the pic section?

[DeeAOne]

the KLDE V6 mazda 626

[koukis14]

I agree with the Solstice. I think on this board the new GTI does not get enough credit.

[santacruz77]

i think your sig kicks ass lmao

Volvo S60R/V70R

http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2006/09/22/automobiles/24block600.jpg

I want one... :yes:

[Kyle]

Mini Cooper S's. They may look lame, but I bet they are fun as hell to drive.

Dodge Omni's. The GLH, and the GLH-S's were quick as hell.

[VooDooXII]

I like Super Coopers quite a bit...I love those cars. I wouldn't mind having one at all.

Good call on the Omni. :goodjob:

[aemkitfox]

Brand new V6 Navi 6spd accords are awesome. They're quick enough and have everything extra you might want with voice commands and whatnot.

Volvo S60R/V70R

My friends roommate has one, they are nasty. There's one on craigslist for $20k, I want it.

Also Volvo 850R wagons are sick.

Eh...people don't like the "mom trying to look cool" image that goes along with those Accord coupes.

Much better than a Solara though!

[aemkitfox]

Nah, I'm talkin sedan, black on black leather is teh sex. After drivin them at work so much i'm falling in love with them.

[Elbow]

Civic

[Kevykev]

Alt SER/3.5SE was my first though but it gets just enough to maintain a sleeper status. It is appreciated more that most cars mentioned.

Even non-performance oriented people talk about the 3.5 liter.

So it's appreciation is there!

[coolcat]

Civic

That's actually kind of true, there are SOME quick ass civic's out there.


Oh also another one to my list is the 3.5L v6 Accords.

Subaru forester Turbo this goes along the lines of the Volvo S60R/V70R

Ohh good call. I like how they look...I'm not so sure about the latest model though.

However, I don't think they sell the sedan with a manual transmission and a V6...but if you work with them, I guess you'd know.

rest assured i've driven several. If you see an 07 on the road all stock with 5 spoke rims its a 6spd, the v6 badge on the back is red as well

Current generation is the first time offered a manual V6 coupe. Wish they had the 1st gen 3.0CL in manual, that would be a done deal.

A lot of people don't even see Volvos as "luxury" cars...haha, they're underestimated in every sense. I like that about them though. They're very low profile.

i don't think everybody has a grasp on the topic here, because most of these cars you guys are posting get WAY TOO MUCH credit instead of not enough.

here's one for ya:

1968 Cadillac DeVille
375-HP overhead 90 degrees V-8; bore 4.30, stroke 4.06, displacement 472 cu. in. Max. torque 525 ft.-lbs.
Turbo Hydra-Matic Transmission: Fully automatic, improved torque converter type with fixed stator. Converter multiplies engine torque for increased driving thrust to drive wheels during acceleration in any gear (low, intermediate or high).

[PSINXS]

dont know if we are talkin old r present day car but:
Mitsu/Dodge Colt
FB RX-7
SRT-4s(they are highly popular but ppl shit on them because they are neons. It really isnt just a neon)

[blackshine007]

SRT-4s(they are highly popular but ppl shit on them because they are neons. It really isnt just a neon)
Is it still on the same identical chassis with very little done, the same one with the poor crash test rating and flimsy interior parts? Can you take the fender off a regular neon and upgrade to the SRT-4 due to weight savings or is it the same fender? Besides the engine, transmission and suspension upgrades, at the end of the day, it's still a neon. Point blank. And I respect them for the speed aspect. Don't get into an accident in one. An SRT-4 crumbles the very exact same way a neon does, just with more mass to lug around due to the bigger engine and turbo equipment

[JDMJAYDC2]

vw beetle the older ones and the mitsu colt they are turbo and really quick

Too bad about no more new R models. Seriously, if I had the cash...I would've tried to get a V70 R. They're impossible to find though.

The thing about the Euro-spec Focus...it's an "upper level" car. If they brought that one over here, it'd cost too much for what it was. No one's going to buy a ~$27,000 Ford Focus.
